  She's been playin' in a room on the strip for ten years in Vegas 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  Every night she looks in the mirror and she only ages 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  She's been readin' about Nashville and all the records that everybody's buyin' 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  Says, "I'm a simple girl myself, grew up on Long Island" 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  So she packs her bags to try her hand 

  Says this might be my last chance

  She's gone country, look at them boots 

  She's gone country, back to her roots 

  She's gone country, a new kind of suit 

  She's gone country, here she comes

  Well, the folk scene's dead, but he's holdin' out in the Village 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  He's been writin' songs, speakin' out against wealth and privilege 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  He says, "I don't believe in money, but a man could make him a killin' 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  'Cause some of that stuff don't sound much different than Dylan" 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  I hear down there it's changed, you see 

  Well, they're not as backward as they used to be

  S3:
  He commutes to L.A., but he's got a house in the Valley 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  But the bills are pilin' up and the pop scene just ain't on the rally 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  And he says, honey, I'm a serious composer, schooled in voice and composition 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  But with the crime and the smog these days, this ain't no place for children 

  ---x--x--x x--x--x--x 

  Lord, it sounds so easy, it shouldn't take long 

  Be back in the money in no time at all

  Yeah, he's gone country, a new kind of walk 

  He's gone country, a new kind of talk 

  He's gone country, look at them boots 

  He's gone country, oh, back to his roots
