Well I mighta been born just poor white trash
But I sold a million records and made a little cash
Now the doctors and the lawyers dont think it funny
That theyre living next door to white trash with money
I was born on the wrong side of the tracks
I quit school early and I never went back
The rich kids all looked down on me
They said as good as them was something Id never be
I started playing my guitar to earn a few bucks
Singing my song to a room full of drunks
Then a record man heard me down at Kittys bar
He said, come on to Nashville and Ill make you a star
REPEAT I bought a big house on top of the hill
A brand new Harley and a Coupe de Ville
The neighbors all cried when I moved in
It seems real estates cheaper than its ever been
Now the radio plays all the Railroad songs
I lay around the pool and listen all day long
This country boys life sure turned out swell
And if the neighbors dont like it, they can all go to…
REPEAT
