[Verse 1]
This song, it was written down
In a pea green windowless room
Four o'clock and the TV's dead
Wired up with nothin' to do
I drunk all my whiskey, smoked all my beer
I'm already gone and just got here
An old hairy ass hillbilly still up and a hangin' on

[Verse 2]
Made me think of a similar time
In the Tropicannibal motel
Takin' showers 'bout every hour
'Cause I wasn't really feelin' well
Well, in walked the Alabama Leanin' Man
His ol' buddy Billy Swann
Two old hairy ass hillbillies still up and a hangin' on

[Chorus]
Takes a friend to make you laugh
A slap on the back, someone who knows right where you're at
A friend in town who just heard you're around
Came by see how you're gettin' along

[Verse 3]
Most people come out to clubs
Just to see an electric dildo
A human jukebox who loves to play
Every single song they know
And they don't care if you blow your soul
They usually stand up and tell you so
And leave that hairy ass hillbilly still up and a hangin' on
[Verse 4]
So wherever you may be tonight
I wish you luck
You may be with a friend of yours
And may your friend be your lady love
But if you gotta go and do a show
And afterward, you got nowhere to go
You're just a hairy ass hillbilly still up and you're hangin' on

[Chorus]
Takes a friend to make you laugh
A slap on the back, someone who knows right where you're at
A friend in town who just heard you're around
Came by see how you're gettin' along
