From a hill I look down at the lights of a town that lured me and trapped me a while But I broke away now I'm on my way so happy carefree like a child Headed for my big country Well I need lots of room so I'll follow that moon Driftin' there in the star-studded sea Over trails that are strange to that far mountain range Where the tall timber beckons to me out there in my big country There's someone out there and I know that she cares
The big country holds all my dreams With a love that I know pure as new fallen snow And as fresh as a cool mountain stream Well I can hardly wait till I stand at the gate oh I've been away now so long When her arms open wide and I step inside I'll be home and that's where I belong out here in my big country There's someone out there...
