Long Haired Country Boy

People say I'm no good

Crazy as a loon

'Cause I get up in the morning

I get down in the afternoon, yeah

Kinda like my old blue tick hound

Used to lay around on 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 talking on TV

Puttin' down the rock and roll

He wants me to send a donation

'Cause he's worried about my soul

The man 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 walking too

'Cause I ain't asking 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

Yeah, a poor girl wants to marry

And a rich girl wants to flirt

Yeah, a rich man goes to college

And a poor man goes to work

Only a drunkard wants another drink of wine

And a politician wants your vote

Yeah, and I don't want much of nothing at all

But I will tell another joke

I ain't asking 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

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

You just leave this long haired country boy alone

Oh, yeah
