Lyrics: Long Haired Country Boy

People say I ain't no good

And I'm crazy as a loon

'Cause I get stoned in the mornin'

And I get drunk in the afternoon

I'm kinda like my old bluetick hound

I like to lay around in the shade

I ain't got no money

But I damn sure got it made

And 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'

Just leave this long haired country boy alone

Well I seen a preacher man talkin' on TV

Was puttin' down rock 'n' roll

He wants me to send a donation

'Cause he's worried about my soul

He said Jesus walked on water

And y'all know that this is true

Well sometimes I think that ol' preacher man

Sure'd like to do a little walkin' too

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

Yeah, if I can't get it on my own

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

Just leave this long haired country boy alone

(Oh, here goes)

Well I said the poor girl wants to marry

And the rich girl wants to flirt

The rich boys went off to college

And all of us poor boys came to work

The drunkard wants another drink of wine

And the politician wants your vote

And me I don't want much of nothin' at all

But I will take another toke

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

Yeah, if I can't get it on my own

Yeah, if you don't like the way I'm livin'

Just leave this long haired country boy alone

Well I said, I said

If you don't like it how I'm livin'

Just leave this long haired country boy alone

Get 'em boys
