[Verse 1] A country girl leaves home With a dream of what shell find Leavin what shes always felt above Leavin with a future that shes seen inside her mind Lookin for a taste of life and love [Chorus] If theres magic in the city, its a pity Cause I aint seen none yet Its that country life I cant forget And Id gladly trade the shoes upon my feet to take her place Just before she steps aboard that train If I were in her shoes I know Id turn around, turn around And trade away these Lonesome City blues [Verse 2] A country girl is bored With all the folks shes known so well Bored with all the faces that shes seen Bored with all the gossip that the grownups find to tell Lookin for a way to fill a need [Chorus] If theres magic in the city, its a pity Cause I aint seen none yet And its that country life I cant forget And Id gladly trade the shoes upon my feet to take her place Just before she steps aboard that train If I were in her shoes I know Id turn around, turn around Trade away these Lonesome City blues [Outro] And trade away these Lonesome City blues And trade away these Lonesome City blues Trade away
