Lyrics:

I don't like to go down to the flats, I can't park on a hill
Instead getting a rolling start, I have to pay the bill
I guess I need that city life, it sure has lots of style
Pretty soon it brings me down, and I have to think to smile
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind

It's only someone else's potatoes when you're pickin' someone else's patch
If you go down there anyway, it very seldom lasts
I tried to find out once long ago, sure it got me confused
I still don't know which way to go to lose those old spud blues
It gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone (and leave myself behind)
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone, leave myself behind (leave myself behind)

I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
I'm thankful for my country home, it gives me peace of mind
Somewhere I can walk alone and leave myself behind
