Country Conscience

歌詞

I came in here tonight To do a little thinking When I left home, I promised her twice I ain't going drinking Then you walk in And knock me down We could slip away, but in a few days It'll be all over town But my country conscience will tell on me The roots of my raising-run too deep Sometimes temptation can make a strong man weak But my country conscience won't let me cheat I started to leave Then I hesitated I looked in her eyes And I was almost persuaded Then she took my hand But when she touched my ring A voice in my head, spoke up and said "Son, you're doing the wrong thing" But my country conscience will tell on me The roots of my raising-run too deep Sometimes temptation can make a strong man week But my country conscience won't let me cheat My country conscience won't let me cheat
