Long Haired Country Boy - The Charlie Daniels Band

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 old blue tick hound, I like to lay around in the shade I ain't got no money, but I damn sure got it made 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 Well, I've 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 old preacher man should like do a little walkin' too '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 Oh, here it goes Well, I said the poor girl wants to marry, and the rich girl wants to flirt The rich boys ran off to college and all of us poor boys came to work The drunker 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 '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 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

There's a place not too far away from here Out with the cows and the Lone Star beer Where the livin' and lovin' is quite all right with me Well, they call it Texas, and it's a mighty fine place to be Runs from Texarkana to El Paso And Oklahoma down to old Mexico And there's Houston, Dallas, Austin and San Antone People in Texas sure do make you feel at home They just want everybody to leave them alone While they drink their whiskey and roll their own And they like their music with a little bit of southern sound Kick up their heels every evenin' when the sun goes down And you can call them country, and they don't care And if you don't like the way they wear their hair You can take you like and shove 'em on up the line People in Texas don't care if the sun don't shine

Daniels You can dance around if you want to But there's some thing a man don't wanna do And if you see him comin' walkin' down the street You better jump right Outta his way Everyone knows it's a street skit Every time he comes to town Coz he's got somethin' in his left hip The blues down walk around Funky-junky Funky-junky He's on Missouri Boulevard About a half o' mile south of the graveyard Better run an leap through funky old dirt Go one don't find no shame This old muskrat barbeque And a sweetness on the railroad track He's gotta tiger in his living room He gotta monkey on his back Funky-junky Funky-junky
