Laid Back Country Picker |
| South bound out of Shreveport heading hell bent for his grave |
| He reads a sign on the barn door that says the good lord Jesus saves |
| But I don’t think Jesus knows him 'cause he ain’t the Jesus kind |
| He’s a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind |
| He gave the folks a good show at the Shreveport Coliseum |
| They all heard he’s dying, so they all come out to see |
| Friends and neighbors make him happy |
| Lord them snuff queens treat him kind |
| He’s a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind |
| Uppers, downers, turn arounders picked him up and laid him down |
| His old troubles keep on swimming 'cause their to damn mean to drown |
| He keeps looking for an answer I know he’s never gonna find |
| He’s a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind |
| Big Bertha, back in Beaumont says he really turns her on |
| She hits the floor a dancing, when the DJ plays his song |
| You can see somebody loves him, or at least they did one time |
| He’s a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind |
| Uppers, downers, turn arounders picked him up and laid him down |
| His old troubles keep on swimming 'cause their to damn mean to drown |
| He keeps looking for an answer I know he’s never gonna find |
| He’s a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind |
