lyrics

Walked to school on the sidewalks of the suburbs,
Maybe an inchworm across my path.
We have squirrels and big bird feeders,
Raccoons picking through the trash.
Overhead the sky was filled with
Airplanes flying every which way.

[Chorus]
Oh how I’d like to live in the country,
Out in the wild where it’s dark at night,
Where the wild things live free in the country,
Oh how I’d love to live there too.

I live in a one-room apartment
Just enough space to turn around.
I sleep to the ‘frigerator
Wake to squeals of garbage trucks.
Only wildlife is living on the verges
Getting killed as they cross the road.

[repeat Chorus]

Now I’m a city kid
Don’t know about nature.
Thought animals had a right to be.
A right to roam as they have for millennia,
From sea to shining sea.
Got none in Congress to defend them --
What about their liberty?

[ending]

Isn’t that what we loved?
Purple mountain majesty
Leave something for the future
Something beautiful and wild and free
Something beautiful and wild and free
Something beautiful and wild and free
