People say Im no good, and crazy as a loon
Cause I get stoned in the mornin, I get drunk in the afternoon
Kinda like my old blue tick hound, I like to lay around in the shade
And I aint got no money, but I damn sure got it made
Cause I aint askin nobody for nothin
If I cant get it on my own
If you dont like the way Im livin
You just leave this long haired country boy alone
Preacher man talking on TV, puttin down the rock and roll
Wants me to send a donation, cause hes worried about my soul
He said, Jesus walked on the water, and I know that its true
But sometimes, I think that preacher man would like to do a little walkin too
But I aint askin nobody for nothin
If I cant get it on my own
You dont like the way Im livin
You just leave this long haired country boy alone
A poor girl wants to marry, and a rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college, and a poor man goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine, and a politician wants your vote
I dont want much of nothing at all, but I will take another toke
But I aint asking nobody for nothin
If I cant get it on my own
You dont like the way Im livin
You just leave this long haired country boy alone
