Lyric Country Comforts

(Bernie Taupin, Elton John)

Soon the pines will be falling everywhere
Village children always fighting for fair share
And the six-o-nine goes roarin down the creek
As Parson Lee prepares his service for next week

I saw grandma yesterday down at the store
Well she s really lookin fine for eighty-four
And she asked me if some time I d fix the barn
Poor old girl, she needs a man down on the farm

Chorus:
And it s good old country comforts in my bones
Just the sweetest sound my ears have ever known
Just an old fashioned feeling in my bones
Country comforts and the road that s going home

Down at the mill they ve got a new machine
Foreman says it cuts manpower by fifteen
"Oh, but that ain t natural" old man Grayson says
cause he s a horse-drawn man until his dying days

(Chorus)
