[Verse]
D
People say I'm no-good, and crazy as a loon

I get stoned in the morning, I get drunk in the afternoon

Kinda like my old blue tick hound, I like to lay around in the shade

I ain't got no money, but I damn sure got it made
        G                                                D
I ain't askin nobody for nothin, if I can't get it on my own
             A
If you don't like the way I'm livin, you just

[Verse]
D
Preacher man talkin on the TV, puttin down the rock n roll
Wants me to send a donation, cause he's worried about my soul
He said, Jesus walked on the water, and I know that is true
But sometimes I think that preacher man, like to do a little walkin too
            G                                                D
But I ain't askin nobody for nothin, if I can't get it on my own
          A
You don't like the way I'm livin, you just

[Verse]
D
A poor girl wants to marry, and a rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college and a poor man goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine, and a politician wants a vote
I don't want much of nothin at all, but I will take another toke
        G                                                D
I ain't askin nobody for nothin, if I can't get it on my own
          A
You don't like the way I'm livin, you just
