A Country Boy Can Survive (Y2K Verison)
|
|
Computer man says it's the end of time
|
December 31st nineteen ninety-nine
|
People buyin' up Army surplus things
|
Afraid of what the New Year will bring
|
|
I live back in the woods you see
|
Y2K don't mean a thing to me
|
I've got a shotgun, a rifle
|
And a four wheel drive
|
A country boy can survive
|
Country folks can survive
|
|
I can plow a field all day long
|
I can catch catfish from dusk 'till dawn
|
Make our own whiskey
|
And our own smoke too
|
Ain't too many things these ol' boys can't do
|
[including Bocephus]
|
|
We grow good ol' tomatoes
|
And homemade wine
|
A country boy can survive
|
Country folks can survive
|
|
'Cause you can't starve us out
|
And you can't make us run
|
We'll survive in the millenium
|
We say grace
|
And we say ma'am
|
If you ain't into that we don't give a damn
|
|
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
|
And the rocky mountains and the western skies
|
If the bank machines crash
|
We'll be just fine
|
'Cause a country boy can survive
|
Country folks can survive
|
|
I had a good friend in New York City
|
He never called me Bocephus
|
Called me hillbilly
|
[really]
|
|
But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
|
For forty-three dollars my friend lost his life
|
Now this dude's gonna get out in a year or two
|
'Cause the system don't work for me and you
|
But a country boy can survive
|
Country folks can survive
|
|
'Cause you can't starve us out
|
And you can't make us run
|
We'll survive in the millenium
|
|
We say grace
|
And we say ma'am
|
If you ain't into that we don't give a damn
|
|
We're from North California
|
And south Alabam'
|
And little towns all around this land
|
If the bank machine's crash
|
We'll be just fine
|
And a country boy can survive
|
|
Country folks can survive
|
Country boy can survive
|
Country folks can survive
|
[Any year, anytime]
