Acid Country
By: Tim Wilson
Verse 1:
MaGma made us listen to Pink Floyd and Floyd KrCamer.
We had thGree square meals of mushrooms and cornbDread.
Mama's kitGchen smelled a lot like inscents and cathead bCiscuits.
We'd watch PoGrter and Dolly and thrDow on the Grateful DeGad.
Chorus 1:
Born and raCised on, Acid CGountry
Eatin' turnip greens and a handful of NembDutal
Yeah dadGdy couldn't take it he had to go
You can't Cplay Hendrix on a banjo
Mama "walGked the floor" and laid "anoDther brick in the waGll"
Verse 2:
OGur heroes were Roy Acuff and Abby HoCffman
We grew uGp outside of Woodstock TenneDssee
Listenin' to FarGron Young and a side of Inna Godda DavCida
Mama maGde a well rounded ouDtcast out of mGe
Chorus 2:
Born and raiCsed on acid couGntry
EaGtin' cold ham hocks and a handful of PlaciDdyl
Yeah dadGdy couldn't take it he had to go
Playin AlCice Cooper on a dobro
Wearin' leGather hip huggers and worDkin in the cotton milGls
Bridge:
And "if you Cdon't eat your meat you can't have any puGdding"
And son your "walkin' on the Fightin' side of Dme"
Yeah "excuGse me while I kiss the sky", "I Cshot a man in Reno just to watch him die"
And Chet AGdkins playin' the guDitar on the MGTV
Ohh Ooo Ohh
Chorus 3:
Born and raiCsed on, Acid CouGntry
MaGkin' "smoke on the water" sound a lot like "Uncle DPen"
And dadGdy couldn't take it he had to go
You can't miCx Deep Purple with Bill Monroe
And "sunshGine of your loDve" while yodeliGng.
