Mother Country Music - Vern Gosdin

When my mind is all a clutter from living day to day

Your music is like a river, I can gently float away

When I’m deep in disappointment and I cannot face the night

Your music lifts me up and takes me closer to the light

Mother country music, let your sad songs roll

You nurtured me in childhood, you’re a haven for my soul

Mother country music, let your guitars roll on

There’s a refuge for my trouble in your songs

You helped me through the darkest hour, when I thought I was alone

And when I found a new love, you gave me a love song

When my circle is broken and everything goes wrong

It helps to ease my mind, when I hear it in your song

Mother country music, let your sad songs roll

You nurtured me in childhood, you’re a haven for my soul

Mother country music, let your guitars roll on

There’s a refuge for my trouble in your songs

Mother country music, let your sad songs roll
