Written and recorded by Hank Williams Jr.

G                             Dm
The preacher man says its the end of time
        C                         G
And the Mississippi River she's a going dry
                           Dm
The interest is up and the stock markets down
        C                      G
And you only get mugged if you go down town

                   Dm
I live back in the woods you see
   C                          G
My woman and the kids and the dogs and me
                              Dm
I got a shotgun a rifle and a four wheel drive
      C           Dm     G
And a country boy can survive
Dm            C      G
Country folks can survive

                   Dm
I can plow a field all day long
      C                  G
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
                                Dm
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
      C                         G
Ain't too many things these ole boys can't do
                              Dm
We grow good ole tomatoes and homemade wine
      C           Dm     G
And a country boy can survive
Dm            C      G
Country folks can survive

            C                           A#
Because you can't starve us out and you can't make us run
      F                        C
Cause when them ole boy raised on shotgun
                 A#
We say grace and we say ma'am
       F                  C
If you ain't into that we don't give a damn

                      Dm
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
        C                       G
And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies
                              Dm
And we can skin a buck we can run a trot line
      C           Dm     G
And a country boy can survive
Dm            C      G

                       Dm
I had a good friend in New York City
   C                          G
He never called me by my name just Hillbilly
                        Dm
My GrandPa taught me to live off the land
    C                      G
And his taught him to be a business man

                                   Dm
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway Night
    C                 G
And I'd send him some homemade wine
                                  Dm
But he was killed by a man with a switch blade knife
    C                      G
For forty three dollars my friend lost his life

                                  Dm
I'd love to spit some Beechnut in that dudes eye
    C                     G
And shoot em' with my ole 45
        Dm          C      G
