Verse 1
People say I'm no good and crazy as a loon
Cause I get stoned in the mornin, get drunk in the afternoon
Kinda like my ole blue tick hound I like to lay around in the shade
I ain't got no money but I've damn sure got it made
Chorus
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothing
If I can't get it on my own
If you don't like the way I'm livin'
You just leave this long haired country boy alone
Verse 2
Poor girl wants to marry and the rich girl wants to flirt
Rich man goes to college and the poor man goes to work
Drunkard wants another drink of wine and the politician wants a vote
I don't want much of nothing at all but I will take another toke
Chorus
Verse 3
Preacher man talkin' on the radio, puttin' down the rock and roll
He wants me to give a donation cause he's worried about my soul
He said Jesus walked on the water and I know that it's true
But sometimes I think that preacher man might do a little walkin' too
