- Long Haired Country Boy LyricsPeople say I'm no good
and crazy as a loon
Cause I get stoned in the mornin'
and get drunk in the afternoon
Kinda like my ol' blue tick hound
I like to lay around in the shade
And I ain't got no money
but I've damn sure got it made
(chorus)
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothing
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
He 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
might do a little walkin' too
(chorus)
(instrumental)
A poor girl wants to marry
and the rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college
and the poor man goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine
and the politician wants a vote
I don't want much of nothing at all
but I will take another toke
(chorus)
and crazy as a loon
Cause I get stoned in the mornin'
and get drunk in the afternoon
Kinda like my ol' blue tick hound
I like to lay around in the shade
And I ain't got no money
but I've damn sure got it made
(chorus)
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothing
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
He wants me to send a donation
He said "Jesus walked on the water"
and I know that it's true
But sometimes I think that preacher man
might do a little walkin' too
(chorus)
(instrumental)
A poor girl wants to marry
and the rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college
and the poor man goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine
and the politician wants a vote
I don't want much of nothing at all
but I will take another toke
(chorus)
