Words and music by Tom T. Hall
[C] Country Is - [F] sittin' on the [C] back porch
[F] List'nin' to the [C] whipporwills - late in the [G7] day
Country [C] Is - [F] mindin' your [C] business
[F] Helpin' a [C] stranger - if he [G7] comes your [C] way.
1st Refrain
[F] Country Is - livin' in the [C] city
[F] Knowin' your [C] people, knowin' your [G7] kind
Country [C] Is - [F] what you [C] make it
[F] Country [C] Is - [G7] all in your [C] mind
Country Is - workin' for a livin'
Thinkin' your own thoughts - a-lovin' your kind
Country Is - teachin' your children
Find out what's right - and stand your ground.
2nd Refrain
Country Is - havin' a good time
List'nin' to the music - and singin' your part
Country Is - walkin in the moonlight
Country Is - all in your heart.
Note. Tom T. Hall - Country Is
