I Don't Like To Go Down To Flats
'Cause I Can't Park On A Hill
Instead Getting A Rolling Start
I Have To Pay The Bill.

I Guess I Need That City Life
It Sure Has Lots Of Style
But Pretty Soon It Wears Me Out
And I Have To Think To Smile.

I'm Thankful For My Country Home
It Gives Me Peace Of Mind
Somewhere I Can Walk Alone
And Leave Myself Behind.

It's Only Someone Else's Potatoes
You Pickin' Someone Else's Patch
And If You Go Down There Anyway
It Very Seldom Lasts.

I Found That Out Once Long Ago
And It Sure Got Me Confused
I Still Don't Know Which Way To Go
To Lose Those Old Spud Blues.

I'm Thankful For My Country Home
It Gives Me Peace Of Mind
Somewhere I Can Walk Alone
And Leave Myself Behind.
