Jim Croce Country Girl song lyrics

She was just a country girl

Didn't have those New York City ways

When she hopped a bus in Ohio

Headin' for the crowded streets where no one says a word

She was just a country girl living in the lonely city

Met a man who learned her name

She became a woman on a rainy New York night

There's a new day dawnin' in the city

She calls her Mama collect

Sayin', "Mama send bus fare back to Ohio

Have somebody meet me at the depot"

She was just a country girl

Spent some time in New York City

Now she tells her friends about lonely New York City

And her lonely New York night

There's a new day dawnin' in the city

She calls her Mama collect

Sayin', "Mama send bus fare back to Ohio

Have somebody meet me at the depot"

She was just a country girl

She was just a country girl
