[Verse 1]
I'm a real down home hillbilly
Walkin' round and actin' silly
When Dizzy plays his horn I blow my top
I don't dig no other music—country, rock or pop

[Verse 2]
I plant beans and I plant taters
I plant corn and some tomaters
When Yardbird plays his horn I just can't stop
I may be from the country but I dig bebop

[Bridge]
I may be a country snip
My manner is not too hip
But jazz takes me on a trip
That's the way it is
I love Bird and Diz

[Verse 3]
I am not a city slicker
Smokin' pot and drinkin' liquor
At being hip I guess I'm just a flop
I may be from the country but I dig bebop

[Instrumental]

Bebop
