[Verse 1]
People say I'm no good
And I'm crazy as a loon
'Cause I get stoned every mornin'
I get drunk every afternoon
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

[Chorus]
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'
If I can't get it on my own
If you don't like the way that I'm livin'
You can leave this long-haired country boy alone

[Verse 2]
Preacher man talkin' on the TV
Puttin' down on the rock 'n' roll
Wants me to send a donation
'Cause he's worried about my soul
He said Jesus walked on the water
Yes sir, I know that it's true
But sometimes I think that preacher man
Might like to do a little walkin' too
[Chorus]
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'
If I can't get it on my own
If you don't like the way that I'm livin'
You can leave this long-haired country boy alone

[Verse 3]
A poor girl wants to marry
And a rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college
And us poor boys go to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine
And a politician wants a vote
I don't want much of nothin' at all
But I will take another toke

[Chorus]
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothin'
If I can't get it on my own
If you don't like the way that I'm livin'
You can leave this long-haired country boy alone
If you don't like the way that I'm livin'
You can leave this long-haired country boy alone
