They stone me cause I dont believe
And they condemned me to hell
And the troubles that have burdened me
Ive brought all on myself
Stood out on the edge of town
With a case of nothing to lose
Burned every candle down
On every drug I could use
Ive been a rambler, a gambler and an all time loser
Been blamed for things I aint done
Been a jail bird, a cuss word and a cocaine user
Been a lowdown son of a gun
Ive been a funky, junky, Hillbilly honky
Stretched my feet across the land
Im just a hardtime, soulshine, good looking guitar man
The Honey isnt very sweet
Only when sugar is free
If you dont like the taste of pain
Dont bother shaking the tree
A stroke can make a pussy purr
By the touch of a hand
If youre in need of a rocket ride
Well honey I am the man
I caught the clap in a trap and I took the rap
F*cked the devil right between the thighs
Shot the spoon to the moon
And was back in by noon
Goddamn was a turkish suprise
I saw captain hook just leap out of the book
Stole wendy from peter pan
Im just a hardtime, soulshine good looking guitar man
Well you know I play that Rock and Roll like my daddy did
In juke joints and honky tonks since I was a kid
Threw the dice against the cornerstone and then turned it loose
Left them all crying and dieing them low down blue
Been depressed and a mess but I must confess
Im getting better honey everyday
Some will criticise and some will idolize
With all that I have to say
Best stand back when the commie says attack
When the bulldog gets the lamb
Im just a hardtime, soulshine, goodlookingg guitar man
