Country Comfort – Elton John

Soon the pines will be falling everywhere
Village children fight each other for a share
And the 6:09 goes roaring past the creek
Deacon Lee prepares his sermon for next week

I saw Grandma yesterday down at the store
She’s really going fine for eighty-four
She asked me if sometime I’d fix her barn
Poor old girl, she needs a hand to run the farm

And it’s good old country comfort in my bones
The sweetest sound my ears have ever known
An old-fashioned feeling fully grown
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home

Down at the well they’ve got a new machine
The foreman says it cuts man-power by fifteen
But that ain’t natural, well so old Clay would say
He’s a horse-drawn man until his dying day

And it’s good old country comfort in my bones
The sweetest sound my ears have ever known
An old-fashioned feeling fully grown
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home

And it’s good old country comfort in my bones
The sweetest sound my ears have ever known
An old-fashioned feeling fully grown
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home

Now the old fat goose is flying ‘cross the sticks
The hedgehog’s done in clay between the bricks
And the rocking chair a-creaking on the porch
Across the valley moves the herdsman with his torch

And it’s good old country comfort in my bones
The sweetest sound my ears have ever known
An old-fashioned feeling fully grown
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home
Ooh, country comfort, yeah, is in a truck that’s going on home

And it’s good old country comfort in my bones
The sweetest sound my ears have ever known
An old-fashioned feeling fully grown
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home
Country comfort’s in a truck that’s going on home
