Lyrics

[Verse 1]
After a show, I approached a southern gentleman
I was eager to know how I played and if he enjoyed it
But he punished me for being nice and taking in his opinion
It doesn't make much sense to me now and didn't either then
He explained to me we was south of the Mason-Dixon
And he was raised to believe that wouldn't be a requirement
To pay attention in school and social views of the government
And if he learned to read and write, he'd send a letter in
[Chorus]
'Cause if this wicked world's on its last leg, how do we two-step?
And that hair down to your shoulders don't cover that big chip
Keep your mind on what's important, son, or you're gonna lose it
Hippies make the best country music
[Instrumental]
He proceeds to buy up everything I was telling him
But not a nickel or dime for any other things I was selling them
He said, "You're working much too hard and you'll never make it big"
And that's why the hippies make the best country music
[Chorus]
'Cause if this wicked world's on its last leg, how do we two-step?
And that hair down to your shoulders don't cover that big chip
Keep your mind on what's important, son, or you're gonna lose it
Hippies make the best country music
