David Allen Coe

David Allen Coe - Long Haired Redneck lyrics

rate me

Country Dj's knows that I'm an outlaw

They'd never come to see me in this dive

Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies

Who are praying they'll get out of here alive

Loudmouth in the corner's gettin to me

talkin bout my earrings and my hair

I guess he aint read the signs that say I've been to prison

Someone better warn him 'for I knock him off his chair

Cuz my long hair just can't cover up my redneck

I've won every fight I've ever fought

I don't need some turkey tellin me that I ain't country

Sayin I aint worth the damned old ticket that he bought

Cuz I can sing all them songs about Texas

And I still do all the sad ones that I know

They tell me I look like Merle Haggard

and sound alot like David Allen Coe

The barmaid in the last town that we played in

knew the words to every song I wrote

She said Jimmy Rabbit turned her on to my last album

just about the time the jukebox broke

Yeah Johnny Cash helped me get out of prison

Long before Rodriguez stole that goat

Ive been the rhinestone cowboy for so long I cant remember

and I can do ya every song Hank Williams ever wrote

And I can sing all them songs about Texas

And I still do all the sad ones that I know

I cant help it I look like Merle Haggard

and sound alot like David Allen Coe

These country Dj's all think I'm an outlaw

They'd never come to see me in this dive

Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies

Who are praying they'll get out of here alive

Loudmouth in the corner's gettin to me

talkin bout my earrings and my hair

(fades out)
