Longhaired Redneck

Lyrics

Country DJ's knows that I'm an outlaw
 They'd never come to see me in this dive
 Where bikers stare at cowboys
 Who are laughing at the hippies
 Who are praying they'll get outta here alive
 The loud mouth in the corner's gettin' to me
 Talking 'bout my earrings and my hair
 I guess he ain't read the signs that say I been to prison
 Someone ought to warn him 'fore I knock him off his chair
 'Cause my longhair just can't cover up my red neck
 I've won every fight I've ever fought
 Hey, I don't need some turkey telling me that I ain't country
 And sayin' I ain't worth the damned ol' ticket that he bought
 'Cause I can sing all them songs about Texas
 And I still do all the sad ones that I know
 They tell me I look like Merle Haggard
 And sound a lot like David Allan Coe
 And the bar maid in the last town that we played in
 Knew the words to every song I'd wrote
 She said Jimmy Rabbit turned her on to my last album
 Just about the time the jukebox broke
 Yeah, Johnny Cash helped me get out of prison
 Long before Rodriguez stole that goat
 I've been the Rhinestone Cowboy for so long, I can't remember
 And I can do you every song Hank Williams ever wrote
 And I can sing all them songs about Texas
 And I still do all the sad ones that I know
 I can't help it, I look like Merle Haggard
 And I sound a lot like David Allan Coe
 But the country DJ's all think I'm an outlaw
 And they'd never come to see me in this dive
 Where bikers stare at cowboys
 Who are laughing at the hippies
 Who are praying they'll get out of here alive
 The loud mouth in the corner's gettin' to me
 Talking 'bout my earrings and my hair-
