A play on song titles!!
COUNTRY IN MY SOUL

Chorus
I love music by Hank Williams
To write like Willie is my goal
I may be just an English girl,
but I’ve got country in my soul.


You were always on my mind
And I just don’t understand
Why you blamed it on the times
Then left for the promised land.

It was raining in my heart
Didn’t sleep a wink last night
Was I always born to lose?
How did we undo the right?

Chorus
I love music by Hank Williams
To write like Willie is my goal
I may be just an English girl,
but I’ve got country in my soul.


In the shelter of your arms
Will the healing hands of time
Recall just how much love hurts
And will you remember mine.

I know I’m building heartaches
but any old arms won’t do.
I’m suff’ring in silence ‘cos
I’ve got everything but you.

Chorus
I love music by Hank Williams
To write like Willie is my goal
I may be just an English girl,
but I’ve got country in my soul.
