C Country Is - F sittin' on the C back porch 
F List'nin' to the C whipporwills - late in the G7 day 
Country C Is - F mindin' your C business 
F Helpin' a C stranger - if he G7 comes your C way. 
 
1st Refrain 
F Country Is - livin' in the C city 
F Knowin' your C people, knowin' your G7 kind 
Country C Is - F what you C make it 
F Country C Is - G7 all in your C mind 
 
Country Is - workin' for a livin' 
Thinkin' your own thoughts - a-lovin' your kind 
Country Is - teachin' your children 
Find out what's right - and stand your ground. 
 
2nd Refrain 
Country Is - havin' a good time 
List'nin' to the music - and singin' your part 
Country Is - walkin in the moonlight 
Country Is - all in your heart.
