Honky Cat lyrics

When I look back boy I must have been green

Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream

Looking for an answer trying to find a sign

Until I saw your city lights honey I was blind

They said get back honky cat

Better get back to the woods

Well I quit those days and my redneck ways

And oh the change is gonna do me good

You better get back honky cat

Living in the city ain't where it's at

It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine

It's like trying to drink whisky from a bottle of wine

Well I read some books and I read some magazines

About those high class ladies down in New Orleans

And all the folks back home well, said I was a fool

They said oh, believe in the Lord is the golden rule

They said stay at home boy, you gotta tend the farm

Living in the city boy, is going to break your heart

But how can you stay, when your heart says no

How can you stop when your feet say go
