I'm goin' up the country, baby, don't you wanna go? I'm goin' up the country, baby, don't you wanna go? I'm goin' to someplace where I've never been before I'm goin', I'm goin' where the water tastes like wine I'm goin' where the water tastes like wine We can jump in the water, stay drunk all the time I'm gonna leave the city, got to get away I'm gonna leave the city, got to get away All this fussin' and fightin', man, you know I sure can't stay Now, baby, pack your leavin' trunk, you know we've got to leave today Just exactly where we're goin' I cannot say, but We might even leave the USA 'Cause there's a brand new game and I don't wanna play No use for you runnin' or screamin' and cryin' 'Cause you've got a home as long as I've got mine
