歌词
[Verse 1]
When I look back, boy, I must have been green
Boppin' in the country, fishin' in a stream
Lookin' for an answer, tryin' to find a sign
Until I saw your city lights, honey, I was blind
[Chorus]
They said, get back, honky cat
Better get back to the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And a mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Oh, change is gonna do me good
You better get back, honky cat
Livin' in the city ain't where it's at
It's like tryin' to find gold in a silver mine
It's like tryin' to drink whiskey
Oh, from a bottle of wine
[Verse 2]
Well, I read some books and I read some magazines
About those high-class ladies down in New Orleans
And all the folks back home, well, they said I was a fool
They said, oh, 'believe in the Lord' is the golden rule
[Chorus]
They said, get back, honky cat
Better get back to the woods
But I quit those days and my redneck ways
And ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, change is gonna do me good
They said, get back, honky cat
Better get back to the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And a oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, change is gonna do me good
[Verse 3]
They said, stay at home
Boy, you gotta tend the farm
Livin' out in the city, boy, is, is gonna break your heart
But how can you stay when your heart says no?
How, how can you stop when your feet say go?
[Chorus]
You better get back, honky cat
Better get back to the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And a ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, the change is gonna do me good
You better get back, honky cat
Livin' in the city ain't where it's at
It's like tryin' to find gold in a silver mine
It's like tryin' to drink whiskey
Oh, from a bottle of wine, oh, yeah
[Outro]
Get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat
Get back, woo
Get back, honky cat
Get back, honky cat
Get back, woo
[Outro]
Oh, get back, honky cat
Get back, get back, honky
Woo, oh, yeah
