	Story Behind the Song This selection was also done in the Opry House practice place, Studio Seven. It features Tommy Taylor on drums, Reggie Witty on harmony vocals, and Steve Barber on the occasional synth. It was also recorded in the later 80's as part of a pre-production session to work up the songs for 'Ah Via Musicom'. At this same demo session, we recorded 'Forty Mile Town', 'Nothing Can Keep Me From You', and 'Virginia' (the last track is included on this CD). Lyrics I've grown tired of the city Need to get away sometimes I like the big bright lights But there she's on my mind I go down to George's farm To rest my weary soul Out in the big wide country Where I want to go Tell your mama and your papa I'm been falling down And tell your brother and your sisters I've done hit the ground Without your sweet sweet love Hard times I've done found… Tell your mama and your papa I've been falling down Tell your brother and your sister I've done hit the ground Without your sweet sweet love Hard times I've done found
