Re: A theme song that sums up your existance
I take a page from ol Hank Williams, "A country boy can survive".<br /><br /><br />The preacher man says its the end of time <br />and the Mississippi River she's a going dry. <br />The interest is up and the stock markets down <br />and you only get mugged if you go downtown. <br />I live back in the woods you see, <br />my woman,and the kids and the dogs and me. <br />I got a shotgun and a rifle and a four wheel drive <br />and a countryboy can survive. Country folks can survive. <br /><br /><br />I can plow a field all day long, <br />I can catch catfish from dusk til dawn. <br />Make our own whiskey and our own smoke too <br />aint to many things these boys can't do. <br />We grow good old tomatoes and homemade wine <br />and countryboy can survive, country folk can survive. <br /><br /><br />Because you can't stomp us out and you can't make us run, <br />cause we're them ole boys raised on shotguns. <br />We say grace and we say mam <br />amd if you aint into that we don't give a damn. <br />We came from the West Virginia coal mine's <br />and the Rocky Mountains and the Western skies <br />and we can skin a buck, we can run a trot-line <br />and a countryboy can survive, country folks can survive. <br /><br /><br />I had a good friend in New York City <br />he never called me by my name just hillbilly. <br />My Grandpa taught me how to live off the land <br />and his taught him to be a business man <br />He used to send me pictures of the Broadway Nights <br />and i would send him some homemade wine <br />but he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife, <br />for forty three dollars my friend lost his life. <br />I'd love to spit some beechnut in that dudes eyes <br />and shoot him with my ole forty-five <br />cause a countryboy can survive, country folks can survive. <br /><br /><br />'Cause you can't stomp us out and you can't make us run, <br />and we're them ole boys raised on shotgun. <br />We say grace, we say mam, <br />if you aint into that we don't give a damn. <br />We're from North California and South Alabam' <br />and little towns all around this land. <br />We can skin a buck, and run a trout line <br />and a countryboy can survive, <br />country folks can survive, <br />countryboy can survive, <br />country folks can survive.
