Country State of Mind

That hot old summer sun Make you beg for your next breath So you best be on the creek bank Laid in the shade Chewing on a hickory twig Pass that bottle, I'll have me a swig I ain't got a lot, but I think I got it made In the shade I'm just laid up here In a country state of mind Catching these fish Like they're going out of style Drinking this homemade wine Hey, if the sun don't come up tomorrow People, I have had a good time I'm just laid up here In a country state of mind I bet the old man's in the kitchen He's got my kind of music on his radio Aww, drinking his beer And dialing up the request lines Mama and old aunt Joan Probably in the dining room trying to use the phone Me, I'm thinking about that girl And later tonight, oh, yeah I'm just laid up here In a country state of mind Hey, I'm catching these fish Like they're going out of style I'm drinking this homemade wine And if the sun don't come up tomorrow People, I have had a good time I'm just laid up here In a country state of mind You know the rednecks and the preppies They're in their discos and honkytonks Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace Lord, I know just how they feel You gotta get out and kick up your heels And ain't it great to be living in the USA Me, I'm laid up here In a country state of mind Catching these fish Like they're going out of style Drinking this homemade wine (all the time) If the sun don't shine tomorrow People, I have had a good time I'm just laid up here In a country state of mind (I know where Hank Jr's at) Odle-lay-hee-oh Odle-lay-hee-oh Odle-lay-hee
