    "Country Girl" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Dottie West. It was released March 1968 as the first single and title track from the album Country Girl. The song peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart. In addition, "Country Girl" became West's first song to chart among the Canadian RPM Country chart, reaching a peak of number 5. West wrote the song with Red Lane.

    West would be recruited in 1973 to write and sing jingles for Coca Cola commercials after an associate of McCann-Erickson Advertising heard "Country Girl" (see Country Sunshine).

    "Country Girl" is identified with West's early career persona: the lyrics of the song's chorus are written on her grave. The lyrics themselves describe her love of the country and the carefree feeling – including such things as blue skies, green meadows, butterflies, home-cooked meals and family – it brings.

    Country Girl

    by: Nazareth

    You are a girl from the country
    Your eyes remind me of the sun
    You came to visit in the city
    And won the hearts of everyone
    You are a girl from the country
    Your hair is colored like the corn
    I have never been outside the city
    I am no friend to anyone
    Chorus:
    Country girl wont you stay a while
    Wont you stay a while with me
    Country girl wont you stay a while
    Let me see you smile for me
    Lead
    You are a girl from the country
    Before you came I was alone
    Please say youll take me to the country
    And let me share your country home
