Long Haired Country Boy

People say I'm no good

And crazy as a loon

'Cause I get stoned in the mornin'

I get drunk in the afternoon

Kinda like my old blue tick hound

I like to lay around in the shade

And I ain't got no money

But I damn sure got it made

'Cause I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'

If I can't get it on my own

If you don't like the way I'm livin'

You just leave this long haired country boy alone

Preacher man talkin' on TV

Puttin' down the rock and roll

Wants me to send a donation

'Cause he's worried about my soul

He said, "Jesus walked on the water"

And I know that it's true

But sometimes I think that preacher man

Would like to do a little walkin' too

But I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'

If I can't get it on my own

If you don't like the way I'm livin'

You just leave this long haired country boy alone

A poor girl wants to marry

And a rich girl wants to flirt

A rich man goes to college

And a poor man goes to work

A drunkard wants another drink of wine

And a politician wants your vote

I don't want much of nothin' at all

But I will take another toke

But I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'

If I can't get it on my own

If you don't like the way I'm livin'

You just leave this long haired country boy alone
