I do what I want
And I'll do what I like
When I make a million
I'll be out of sight
I'll do what I want
And I'll do what I please
I'll laugh in your face
When you beg on your knees
Ooooh, ooooh yeah
There's got to be a better way
Ooooh, and I don't care
I know that when I
[Chorus:Repeat x2]
Live in the country
If I live in the country
Live in the country
I'll find another way
Live in the country
To get rich, live in the country
Live in the country
I know I'll be OK
Every day is a drag
Getting caught in the rat race
You don't wanna be on the street
And every night when I crash
You can see it in my face
I look like I'm dead on my feet
So I'm folding my cash
Gonna live in the country
Cause that's what I plan to do
Cause the air's never bad
When you live in the country
The sky is always blue
Ooooh, ooooh yeah
There's got to be a better way
Ooooh, and I don't care
I know that when I
[Chorus:Repeat x2]
Live in the country [Repeat x8]
I want the ducks, and a lake, and a family portrait
A pipe and a dog at my feet
I want a stall at the fete selling strawberry shortcake
And walls that are very discrete
And when my dull city friends are slum it back in their bedsits
I'll live like a King every day
I'll be out of my head but they'll say I'm eccentric
And look the other way
I know that when I
[Chorus:Repeat x2]
