(i Don't Want To Be A) Country Star Lyrics - Chris Ledoux

She opened up the letter from Nashville Tennessee 

He said hon they like my music the songs I wrote for you and me 

The boys and me just cut a record and it could hit the charts before too long 

So it's gonna be a while till I can come back home 

Yes I'm gonna be a country star and everyone will know my name 

Oh you know I love those bright lights when I step on stage to sing 

I'll be travlin' round the country with a big bus and a band 

So just keep the homefires burnin' while I'm gone 

And I'll get home when I can 

 

She said hon I hear your record oh they play it everyday 

And everybody really likes it so I guess your on your way 

But darling please remember we all need you here at home 

And the kids all miss their daddy so don't be gone too long 

Yes I know that your a country star and everybody knows your name 

And I know you love those bright lights when you step on stage to sing 

Just remember we all love you and don't get blinded by the light 

We'll just keep the homefires burnin' while you're gone 

You know we pray for you each night 

 

After six long months of goin' I guess the road just finally took its toll 

Cause his songs has lost all meaning and he felt so all alone 

Then one night in Jackson he went out on stage to play 

And the crowd stared at disbelief at the words he had to say 

I don't want to be a country star it ain't the way I thought it'd be 

Well it took me such a long time to know that it ain't the life for me 

Cause the days can get so lonely and the nights can get so long 

Lord I think it's about time this country star went home 

Yes I think that it's about time this country boy went home
