Listen to a song called "Out in the Country"and see what it is about.
The song you are about to hear is all about taking a break from city life,
escaping from the crowds,
finding a quiet place,far from the human race.
For those of us who live in cities,
getting out in the country can provide a welcome break,
letting us recharge our batteries.
[Out in the country,as the song says,we can find a place to
stand alone and take back somethin'worth remembering.
The countryside also promises escape from the pollution of the city,
somewhere to get some decent air to breathe.
The countryside also offers somewhere where the sun is not hidden by smog,
making it seem no more than a bright spot in the nighttime.
[So,just remember,as the song advises,whenever you
need a bit of room to move
When life becomes too fast
you can always find relief at last Out in the country.
Here is the song:
Out in the Country
Paul Williams/Roger Nichols
Whenever I need to leave it all behind
Or feel the need to get away
I find a quiet place,far from the human race
Out in the country
Before the breathin'air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin'worth rememberin'
Whenever I feel them closing in on me
Or need a bit of room to move
When life becomes too fast,I find relief at last
Out in the country
Before the breathin'air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin'worth rememberin'
Before the breathin'air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin'worth rememberin'
Before the breathin'air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
]Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin'worth rememberin'
Before the breathin'air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime...
I stand alone...
