Mother Country Music lyrics

When my mind is all a-clutter from livin' day to day

Your music's like a river, I can gently float away

When I'm deep in disappointment and I cannot face the night

Your music lifts me up and takes me closer to the light

[Chorus]

Mother country music, let your sad songs roll

You nurtured me in childhood, you're a haven for my soul

Mother country music, let your guitars roll on

There's a refuge from my troubles in your songs

You helped me through the darkest hours

When I thought I was alone

And when I found a new love, you gave me a love song

When my circle is broken and everything goes wrong

It helps to ease my mind when I hear it in your song

[Chorus]

Mother country music, let your sad songs roll
