One of the first songs I wrote, about the country.

Pure Country Air (Glynne Davies)

Ch.
I’ve camped around Castleton, hiked over Mam Tor
Tramped peat bogs on Kinder and liked what I saw
Sang songs as I’ve rambled and told a few jokes
Relaxed in the Pure Country Air

1.
We work in the city, in village or town
The pressures tremendous were mentally run down
Drive cars in the traffic and rush here and there
My way of relaxing is the Pure Country Air

2.

You go to the doctors it’s migraine again
Prescriptions are made out to relieve the pain
Leave drugs to the junkies get out when its fair
Up into the country to breath the pure air

3.
You walk in the country on ridge walk or path
Look down on the city, its no time to laugh
You’re free from the bustle, the pressure, the pace
But where is it going this inhuman race

Ch.
