i’ll trade the trouble and the strife…

the silver seas – the country life

her momma thinks i’m made out of money
her daddy thinks we need more time
sister’s got her own opinion
calling her on the other line

i ain’t tryin’ to say they’re crazy
i don’t want to say they’re wrong
i ain’t tryin’ to complicate it
i just want to sing my song

so long, to the city life
so long, to the neon sign
i’m gone, i’ll trade the trouble and the strife
for the country life

if i could get in touch with my cousin
maybe we could go away for awhile
if we ever wanna come back
girl, you know we gonna be back in style

27 hours later
we go buy a couple bottles of wine
we don’t need the conversation
cause tonight we goin’ back in time

so long, to the city life
so long, to the neon sign
i’m gone, i’ll trade the trouble and the strife
so long, to the city life
so long, to the neon sign
i’m gone, i’ll trade the trouble and the strife
for the country life

for the country life (for the country life)

i love these guys! they used to be known as the bees, but because they shared the name with a british band, they recently switched to the silver seas. whatever they are known as, their music just makes me feel good and makes me want to jump up and dance! for anyone who knows me, that is a huge accomplishment in itself! another one of their songs “imaginary girl” has been all over tv on different commercials, so i am just trying to do my part in spreading the word on this great band.

i can’t wait to get out of l.a. soon enough
