Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 ol' blue tick hound, I like to lay around in the shade
Now I ain't got no money, but I damn sure got it made
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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 this is true
Well, sometimes I think that ol' preacher man
Should like to do a little walkin' too
[Verse 4]
'Cause I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'
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
Oh, here it goes
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
'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
[Verse 7]
Well, I said, I said, if you don't like how I'm livin'
Just leave this long haired country boy alone
Get 'em, boys
