"Gone Country" is the title of a song by American country music artist Alan Jackson. Released in late 1994, it was the third single from his fourth studio album, "Who I Am". As with that album's first two singles ("Summertime Blues" and "Livin' on Love"), "Gone Country" reached the top of the "Billboard" Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts, a position that it held for one week.

"Gone Country" served as a commentary on the country music scene, [cite web |url=http://www.cmt.com/artists/az/jackson_alan/bio.jhtml |title=Alan Jackson biography |accessdate=2008-02-04 |work=Country Music Television] illustrating three examples of other singers (a lounge singer in Las Vegas, a folk rocker, and a "serious composer schooled in voice and composition"), all of whom find that their respective careers are failing, and as a result, they decide to begin performing country music instead.
