Livin’ Up Country Songtext
von Jake Bugg

When I were living in the country
I were working up until I fell
I only went down
My ship had already sailed

I met a girl out in Memphis
It was going well, I thought at first
She never said bye
She left when she knew I′d fail

And if I could understand
Might finally get some rest at last
Would I fight to take a stand?
I'd never look back
Never have to look out for the man


When I were moving out the country
Thought my luck came by and I was saved
Couldn′t get out
I found no check in the mail

So I went up to Nashville
It was going well, but then went stale
I couldn't get by
Lucky to live to tell the tale

And if I could understand
Might finally get some rest at last
Would I fight to take a stand?
I'd never look back
Never have to look out for the man

And if I could understand
Might finally get some rest at last
Would I fight to take a stand?
I′d never look back
Never have to look out for the man

Said never look back
Never have to look out for the man
