verse 1 
 
D 
People say I'm no good and crazy as a loon 
 
Cause I get stoned in the mornin, get drunk in the afternoon 
 
Kinda like my ole blue tick hound I like to lay around in the shade 
                                               D7 
I ain't got no money but I've damn sure got it made 
 
Chorus 
            G 
And I ain't askin' nobody for nothing 
                        D 
If I can't get it on my own 
             A7 
If you don't like the way I'm livin' 
          G                                 D 
You just leave this long haired country boy alone 
 
verse 2 
D 
Poor girl wants to marry and the rich girl wants to flirt 
 
Rich man goes to college and the poor man goes to work 
 
Drunkard wants another drink of wine and the politician wants a vote 
                                                            D7 
I don't want much of nothing at all but I will take another toke 
 
Chorus  
 
verse 3 
 
Preacher man talkin' on the radio, puttin' down the rock and roll 
He wants me to give a donation cause he's worried about my soul 
He said Jesus walked on the water and I know that it's true 
But sometimes I think that preacher man might do a little walkin' too 
 
Chorus
