Summertime,
Drivin'  fast down an  old back road.
Feeling  fine,
Got  Skynyrd on the  radio.
 The moon  is bright,
Me  and my baby gonna  break new ground.
On  a blanket in a field of green,
Yeah  the crickets sing a song to me, it goes:
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 How 'bout a night  on the country?
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 It beats a night  on the town.
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 Give me a night  on the country.
Oh  oh oh oh oh oh
 'Cause those city  lights bring  me down.
Fireflies,
 They burn better than  candlelight.
Ole  Bob White down  in the holler sings a  lullaby,
You  and me,
Well  that's just enough  company.
So  baby listen to the nighttime breeze,
You  can hear it singin' through the trees:
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 How 'bout a night  on the country?
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 It beats a night  on the town.
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 Give me a night  on the country.
Oh  oh oh oh oh oh
 'Cause those city  lights bring  me down.
Baby,  listen to the nighttime breeze,
 You can hear it singin' through the trees:
Oh  oh oh oh oh oh
 How 'bout a night on the country?
 Oh oh oh oh oh oh
 It beats a night  on the town.
Oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh
 Give me a night  on the country.
Oh  oh oh oh oh oh
 'Cause those city  lights bring  me down.
