Country comfort

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
Well she´s really going fine for eighty four
Well 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
Just the sweetest sound my ears have ever known
Just an old-fashioned feeling fully-grown
Country comfort´s in a truck that´s going home
Down at the well they´ve got a new machine
The foreman says it cuts man-power by fifteen
Yeah but that ain´t natural well so old Clay would say
You see he´s a horse-drawn man until his dying day
Now the old fat goose is flying cross the sticks
The hedgehog´s done in clay between the bricks
And the rocking chair´s creaking on the porch
Across the valley moves the herdsman with his torch
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
Well she´s really going fine for eighty four
Well 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
Just the sweetest sound my ears have ever known
Just an old-fashioned feeling fully-grown
Country comfort´s in a truck that´s going home
Down at the well they´ve got a new machine
The foreman says it cuts man-power by fifteen
Yeah but that ain´t natural well so old Clay would say
You see he´s a horse-drawn man until his dying day
Now the old fat goose is flying cross the sticks
The hedgehog´s done in clay between the bricks
And the rocking chair´s creaking on the porch
Across the valley moves the herdsman with his torch
