Hillbilly Music Lyrics

I ain�t ever been too big on Michael Jackson
Brittany Spears, she just don�t turn me on
And I don�t give a damn about some longhaired cover band
When all they play is old top forty songs
I never could get down to hip- hop music
Hell, I can�t tell Fifty-Cent, from Dr. Dre�
I never picked a Fender Telecaster
�Til I heard old Waylon Jennings play.

(Chorus)
And Lord, I love that ol� hillbilly music
Blaring out like Folsom Prison Blues
Sung to me by some ol� drunken� cowboy
Who�s down on luck and ain�t got much to lose
You can say what you want about their living
All the money and the cocaine they went through
But, Lord, I love that ol� hillbilly music
Just like all them Outlaws used to do.

Now, I�ve caught a couple bands in California
Head banging in them heavy metal bars
I couldn�t understand a word �cause the only thing I heard
Was off beat drums and out of tune guitars
Now, I�ve met some real hot pickers up in Nashville
They got muscle shirts and ear rings in their ear
Bleached out hair and Abercrombie flip flops
As far as I�m concerned they all look queer.

(Repeat Chorus)

Now, I still love to hear Hank Williams Jr.
And I still like ol� David Allen Coe
And I�ve always been a fan of that Charlie Daniels Band
�Cause them ol� boys can still put on a show.

(Repeat Chorus)

Just like all them Outlaws used to do.
