Workin' nine to five just to stay alive Livin' from day to day And the TV dinners and the tonic And gin is eatin' up all my pay
It's a natural fact if you're livin' like that You won't be livin' long Takes a whole lotta lovin' from a whole lotta woman To keep you satisfy and strong
Well, on the outskirts of town there's a lady I've found Knows how to treat me right She's gonna take me to the country tonight
She's gonna take me to the country She's gonna take me to the country Well there's a woman I found on the outskirts of town Knows how to treat me right She's gonna take me to the country tonight
Well, when the weekend comes and the work is done I'm lookin' for a place to play I leave the city streets for the trees And creeks saddle up my Chesapeake Bay
With the moon above and a feelin' for love We're dancin' on a hardwood floor It takes a whole lotta lovin' from a whole lotta woman To keep me comin' back for more
Well, on the outskirts of town there's a lady I've found Knows how to treat me right She's gonna take me to the country tonight
She's gonna take me to the country She's gonna take me to the country
