Lyrics

South bound out of Shreveport heading hell bent for his grave
 He reads a sign on the barn door that says the good lord Jesus saves
 But I don't think Jesus knows him 'cause he ain't the Jesus kind
 He's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind
 He gave the folks a good show at the Shreveport Coliseum
 They all heard he's dying, so they all come out to see
 Friends and neighbors make him happy
 Lord them snuff queens treat him kind
 He's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind
 Uppers, downers, turn arounders picked him up and laid him down
 His old troubles keep on swimming 'cause their to damn mean to drown
 He keeps looking for an answer I know he's never gonna find
 He's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind
 Big Bertha, back in Beaumont says he really turns her on
 She hits the floor a dancing, when the DJ plays his song
 You can see somebody loves him, or at least they did one time
 He's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind
 Uppers, downers, turn arounders picked him up and laid him down
 His old troubles keep on swimming 'cause their to damn mean to drown
 He keeps looking for an answer I know he's never gonna find
 He's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind
