Because you said you imagine it might work as a pop/country style, I read the lyrics and imagined a song in my head for it. I like it. I don't think the lyrics are anything original, but that certainly doesn't matter, I'd be happy to try have a go at turning this into a song if you'd let me (when I get my new computer so I can use my recording monitors and other gear).
Anyway, because you gave me a style you had in mind, I think it made it easier for me to hear it in my head as a tune, so yeah, I believe this could definitely work without needing to improve the lyrics.
