A Country Boy Can Survive Lyrics



Verse 1:
The preacher man says it's the end of time
and the mississippi river it's goin' dry
The Intrest rate's up and the stock market's down
and you only get mugged if you go downtown
I live back in the woods you see
My woman and the kids and the dogs and me
I've got a shotgun a rifle and a four wheel drive
and a country boy can survive
I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
ain't too many things these old boys can't do
We grow good ole tomatos and homemade whine
and a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

Chorus:
Cuz you can't starve us out and you can't make us run
Cuz we'se them boys raised on shotguns
We say grace, we say ma'am
If ya ain't into that we don't give a damn

Verse 2:
We come from the west Virginia Coal mines
and the rocky mountains and the western skys
and we can skin a buck and we can run a trotline
and a country boy can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taght me how to live off the land
and his taght him to be a buisiness man
He used to send me pictures of the broadway nights
and I'd send him some homemade whine
but he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
for 43 dollars my friend lost his life
I'd love to spit some beachnut in that dude's eye
and shoot him with my old .45
cuz a country boy can survive
country folks can survive

Chorus:
Cuz you can't starve us out and you can't make us run
Cuz we'se them boys raised on shotguns
We say grace, we say ma'am
If ya ain't into that we don't give a damn

Bridge:
We're from north California and south Alabam
there's little towns all around this land
and we can skin a buck and run a trotline
and a country boy can survive
country folks can survive
a country boy can survive
a country boy can survive
