sherie rene scott - honky cat lyrics

[verse 1]
when i look back, boy, i must have been green
bopping in the country, fishing in the stream
looking for an answer, trying to find a sign
until i saw your city lights, honey, i was blind

[chorus]
they said, get back, honky cat
better get back to the woods
well, i quit those days and, and my redneck ways
and, oh oh oh, change is gonna do me good
you better get back, honky cat
living in the city ain’t where it’s at
it’s like trying to find gold in a silver mine
it’s like trying to drink whisky from a bottle of wine

[verse 2]
well, i read some books, i read some magazines
about those high+class ladies down in new orleans
and all the fools back home, they said i was a fool
they said, oh girl, “believe in the lord” is the golden rule

[chorus]
i hear them saying, get back, honky cat
better get back to the woods
well, i quit those days and, and my redneck ways
and, hmm hmm hmm mmm, change is really doing me good
[verse 3]
i hear them saying, stay at home, girl, you gotta tend to the farm
living in the city, girl, is gonna break your heart
but how can you stay when your heart says no, no, no?
how can you stop when your feet say go, go, go, god?

[chorus]
get back, honky cat
living in the city ain’t where it’s at
it’s like trying to find gold in a silver mine
it’s like trying to drink whisky, yeah, from a bottle of wine

[outro]
said i quit those days, i quit my redneck ways
’til i saw the sign, baby, i was gonna get back
get back, honky cat
i read books, i read magazines
they said you’re not a high+class girl if you don’t know what it means (woo)
get back, honky cat
well, they said i was a fool, said believing in the lord is the golden rule
honky cat, get back (woo)
get back, honky cat
you can’t stay when your heart says no
you gotta leave when your feet say go, go
get back, honky cat
