Lyrics of A Country Boy Can Survive
The preacher man says it's the end of time and the Mississippi river she's a goin' dry
The interest is up and the stock market's down and you only get mugged if you go downtown
I live back in the woods you see
A woman and the kids and the dogs and me
I got a shotgun rifle and a four wheel drive
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk 'till dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
Ain't too many things these ol' boys can't do
We grow good ol' tomatoes and homemade wine
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Because you can't starve us out and you can't make us run
'Cos we're them old boys raised on ol' shotguns
And we say grace we say ma'am
If you ain't into that we don't give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coalmines and the rocky mountains and the western skies
And we can skin a buck we can run a trot line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And this taught him to be a businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
And I'd send him some homemade wine
But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For fourty three dollars my friend lost his life
I'd love to spit some beechnut in that dude's eyes and shoot him with my old fourty five
'Cos a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
'Cos you can't starve us out and you can't make us run
'Cos we're them old boys raised ol' shotguns
And we say grace we say ma'am
If you ain't into that we don't give a damn
We're from North California and South Alabam'
And little towns all around this land
And we can skin a buck and run a trot line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
