lyrics

The walls of the city are
A little bit tall these days
The lights are a little too bright
And the waits are little too long
And I’m a little tired of
Running the same old race
Working all the time  just to get along

 I’ve got a feeling
I’ve got find some new ground
Pack a bag and
Put myself on the mend
Let’s take a drive and drive
Til we feel our minds slow down
We could pitch a tent and
Have a hell of a weekend

I want to love in the Ozarks
Where the air is clear
And the night skies are dark
I want to live, I want to fly
I want to run and I want to ride
And I want to love in the
In the Ozarks

It can get a little chilly at night
Let’s build good fire
Turn off the phones and
Listen to the whip-poor-will
Little splash of Jack, and damn
I’m feeling just right
The moon is new
And the water is still

I want to love in the Ozarks
Where the air is clear
And the night skies are dark
I want to live, I want to fly
I want to run and I want to ride
And I want to love in the
In the Ozarks

Someday we should pack it all up
And move here to stay
But right now we’ve got one day left
Of a two-day getaway

I want to love in the Ozarks
Where the air is clear
And the night skies are dark
I want to live, I want to fly
I want to run and I want to ride
And I want to love in the
In the Ozarks
