When I looked back.
boy. I must have been green.
boppin' in the country.

fishin' in a stream.

Looked fer an answer.

tryin' to find a sign.

Until I saw your city lights.

Honey. I was blind.

You said.

Get back. honky cat!

Better get back to the woods.

But I quit those days and my
red neck ways. and-a. umhum.

oh. change is gonna do me good.

Yen better get back.
Honky Cat!

Livin' in the city ain't where it's at.

It's like tryin' to find gold
in a silver mine.
It's like tryin' to drink whiskey. 011.

from a bottle of wine.

Well. I read some books.
and I read some magazines
about those high dressed ladies

down in New Orleans.

And all the folks back home. well.
said I was a fool.
They said. ooh. Believe in the Lord
is the golden rule. They said . . .

Get back. Honky Cat!

Better get back to the woods.

Well. I quit those days and my
red neck ways.and-a.ooh hoo.
oh. change is gonna do me good.

011. Babe!

You said. Get back. honky cat!

Better get back to the woods.

Well. I quit those days and my
red neck ways. and-a. ooh 1100.

011. change is gonna do me good.

They said. Stay at home.
boy. gotta tend the farm.
Livin' in the city. boy. it's.

it's gonna break your heart.

But how can you stay when your
heart says no?
How can you stop when your

feet say go? You better . ..

Well. I quit those days and my
red neck ways. and-a. um hum.

change is gonna do me good.

You better get back. honky cat!

Livin' in the city ain't where it's at.

It's like tryin' to find gold
in a silver mine.
It's like tryin' to drink whiskey.

011. from a bottle of wine.

Get back. nonky cat!

Get back. honky cat!

Get back. whew!

Get back. nonky cat!

Get back. honky cat!

Get back. whew!
