Harry Chapin - Country Dreams Lyrics

Send "Country Dreams" ringtone to your cell

This phone's growing into my ear

I made three hundred calls today

Though yours is the only voice that I wanna hear

I got to make me a living someway.

I know you hate me doing this

You say I'm selling out

But how in the hell is a mad s'posed to live?

Selling's what it's all about.

Hello Sir I'm the Pocano Land

Development Company

And I'm calling you with an offer of some land

That you'll just have to see.

A quarter-acre plot that's what I've got for you

Nineteen ninety-five four hundred dollars down

And just ten bucks a week

It's two short hours from New York City

A Pocano Land Site green and pretty.

There's lakes there and trout streams

Mountain views Country Dreams

Contry Dreams.

We dreamed our dreams in college girl

Back then we thought we should

And we promised that we would save the world

Way back then we thought we could.

I know you love your teaching now but I wish you'd understand

There aren't that many jobs around I'm doing the best I can.

Hello Sir...

I'm here with forty other guys

Crowded in a room

Making a living selling the moon

And rustic dreams in June.

I used to hate the city now I'm dwelling in it

Used to love the country now I'm selling it.

I'm doing well at it

That's the hell of it!

I said that we would find a farm

And live out on the land

It's strange how dreams come back at us

In ways that we had never planned.

Here I'm selling real estate

And laughing at myself

If I can't have my country dream

I'm gonna sell it out to somebody else!

Darling don't get mad at me

I'm doing this for you

It's really not so sad to see we had

Growing up to do.

Please don't push me anymore

It's gonna work out fine

I know I said I'd quit before

But just give me a little more time.
