Find me a brand new home
VERSES
I'm goin up the country
Baby don't you want to go?
I'm goin up the country
Baby don't you want to go?
I'm goin' to someplace where
I've never been before
Well I'm goin' where the water tastes like wine
Well I'm goin' where the water tastes like wine
You can jump in the water and stay drunk all the time

We might even leave the USA
Well its a brand new game that I don't wanna play
