"Long Haired Country Boy" lyrics

People say I'm no good and I'm crazy as a loon
'Cause I get stoned in the morning and get drunk in the afternoon
Got a live old blue tick hound, I can lay around in that shade
I ain't got no money, honey, but I damn sure got it made

And I ain't asking nobody for nothing
If I can't get it on my own
If you don't like the way I'm living
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone

Preacher man talking on the TV
He's putting 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."
Well, I know that it's true
But sometimes I think that preacher man
That I could do a little walking too

And I ain't asking nobody for nothing
If I can't get it on my own
If you don't like the way I'm living
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone

Play it, son
Ooh, yeah. Ooh, yeah

A poor girl wants a memory and a rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college and a poor boy goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine and a politician wants your vote, what a joke
Well, I don't care for much of nothing at all, but I really take another toke

I ain't asking nobody for nothing
If I can't get it on my own
Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah
Say, if you don't like the way I'm living
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone

Yeah, and if you don't like the way I'm living
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone
And in case you forgot it, if you don't like the way I'm living
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone
