The Country Needs The Girl Poem by Kelly Boutin

Well you took the girl from the country
but the country stayed alive
‘cause you couldn't take the country from the girl
it just grew inside her.

(Chorus)
‘Cause the girl needs the country
and the country needs the girl
she lives in the country
and the country lives in her.

Yeah, it moved inside her
to keep itself alive
it burned like a fire
and brought them both to life.

(Repeat Chorus)

Now it wants to bring them back
to where they both found life,
but no matter what,
the country won't leave the girl behind!

(Repeat Chorus)

Yeah, the country lives in the girl
it's where it found a home
and the girl loves the country
like nothin' on this earth
‘cause the girl needs the country
and the country needs the girl!

Yeah, they both love each other
so much that it hurts
‘cause the girl needs the country
and the country needs the girl!

Well, you can take her from her home,
but you can't take her heart
‘cause the girl needs the country
and the country needs the girl!
