| 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 bluetick 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 say the 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 the water | 
| And y’all know that this is true | 
| Well sometimes I think that ol' preacher man | 
| Sure’d like to do a little walkin' too | 
| 'Cause I ain’t askin' nobody for nothin' | 
| Yeah, 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 | 
| (Oh, here goes) | 
| Well I said the poor girl wants to marry | 
| And the rich girl wants to flirt | 
| The rich boys went off to college | 
| And all of us poor boys came to work | 
| The drunkard 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 | 
| But I ain’t askin' nobody for nothin' | 
| Yeah, 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 said, I said | 
| If you don’t like it how I’m livin' | 
| Just leave this long haired country boy alone | 
| Get 'em boys |
