We grew up together in the country With the houses were a quarter a mile apart Where the people would rise with the sun And, it was safe to walk home in the dark I lived on a farm just down the road And, she was the girl next door While I really love it here in the country She was always longing for more In the daylight we played in the meadows Watched movies at night on tv And, I'd picture myself in the role of a hero And, she was my Leading Lady She was my Leading Lady She wanted to be up there on stage In front of the camera and lights And, though she begged me to follow I couldn't give up this sweet country life She was bound for the big city In search of fortune and fame While I really love it here in the country The country will never be the same Our friends all met at the depot To see her off on the train She said, "she had nothing to lose" And, "everything to gain" I told her "I hoped she would make it" I had to tell her that lie Wo, deep inside my heart was breaking When I had to kiss her goodbye She was bound for the big city In search of fortune and fame While I really love it here in the country The country will never be the same In the daylight we played in the meadows We watched movies at night on tv And, I'd picture myself in the role of a hero And, she would always be She would always be And, she would always be She would always be my Leading Lady My Leading Lady My Leading Lady
