Lyrics & Chords
Full Song
Verse 1
D
People say I’m no good and crazy as a loon
A D
’Cause I get stoned in the mornin’ and get drunk in the afternoon

Like my daddy before me, I’m a son of a gun
A D A D
I’m just a long-haired country boy, I need a havin’ lots of fun
Chorus
D
And I ain’t askin’ nobody for nothin’
A D
If I can’t get it on my own
D
If you don’t like the way I’m livin’
A D
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone
Verse 2
D
I don’t want much, not really needin’ that much
A D
Just a word of kindness and a human touch
D
I don’t need no politics, amnesty or dope
A D A D
I’m just a long-haired country boy, I got a satisfied mind and a Radio
Chorus
D
And I ain’t askin’ nobody for nothin’
A D
If I can’t get it on my own

A D A
And Lord, I’ll never forget that lovin’ sound
Verse 3

I play guitar, put on my old blue jeans

I get my honky-tonk fix on the weekends

I take my money, honey, to the nearest bar
A D A D
Get a long-haired country boy, a six-pack and my guitar
