Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I drove past my old fence line
Saw a row of brand-new roofs
Where my granddaddy's beans grew
Now there's cul-de-sacs and pools
The mailbox got the same old name
But the ground don't know my shoes
Just a mile from the county road
It's all fresh-cut and confused
[Pre-Chorus]
Porches turned to numbers
Fields turned into plans
I can hear them paving over
Every inch of Uncle Dan's
[Chorus]
Where's the country?
Where'd it go?
Where the red dirt run
And the tall corn grow?
Where's the country?
Tell me true
If Tennessee's still ours
Why does it feel brand new?
[Verse 2]
There's a coffee shop in the feed store
And a dog park by the creek
Kids in boots can't find a lane now
To ride after school each week
Neon names on the hardware
Slick glass where the co-op stood
City talk in the diner
Like it came and ate the wood
[Pre-Chorus]
My mama says it changes
My daddy says it rips
Every mile they build a little
Less of home around our hips
[Chorus]
Where's the country?
Where'd it go?
Where the red dirt run
And the tall corn grow?
Where's the country?
Tell me true
If Tennessee's still ours
Why does it feel brand new?
[Bridge]
I ain't mad at the future
I just miss the honest land
A place could feed a family
With a shovel and a hand
If you hear those twin fiddles
Cry for what we used to know
They're asking every highway sign
What the good dirt used to hold
[Chorus]
Where's the country?
Where'd it go?
Where the red dirt run
And the tall corn grow?
Where's the country?
Tell me true
If Tennessee's still ours
Why does it feel brand new?
