Lyrics

Preacher man says it's the end of time
 Mississippi shes goin dry
 Stockmarkets down
 Taxes are up and
 Your only gettin mugged if ya go downtown
 I live back in the woods, you see
 The woman the kids and the dogs and me
 I got a shotgun, a rifle and a 4-wheel drive
 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
 Make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
 Ain't too many things these 'ol boys can't do (including Bocephus)
 We grow good 'ol tomatoes and homemade wine
 And a country boy can survive
 Country folks can survive
 'Cause you can't starve us out
 And you can't make us run
 We'll survive the new millennium
 We say grace and we say ma'am
 If you ain't into that we don't give a damn
 We came from the West Virginia coal mines
 And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies
 If the bank machines crash, we'll be just fine
 'Cause a country boy can survive
 Country folks can survive
 I had a good friend in New York City
 Never called me by my name, just Hillbilly
 But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
 For 43 dollars my friend lost his life
 I'd like to spit some beech nuts in that dude's eye
 And shoot him with my ol' 45
 Cause a country boy can survive
 Country folks can survive
 'Cause you can't starve us out
 And you can't make us run
 We'll survive the new millennium
 We say grace and we say ma'am
 If you ain't into that we don't give a damn
 We're from North Carolina and South Alabam
 And little towns all around this land
 If the bank machines crash, we'll be just fine
 And a country boy can survive
 Country folks can survive
 A country boy can survive
 Country folks can survive
 Any year, any time
