Jerry Jeff Walker - Hairy Ass Hillbillies Lyrics

This song it was written down

In a pea green windowless room

Four o'clock and the TV's dead

Wired up with nothin' to do

I drunk all my whiskey I smoked all my beer

I'm already gone I just got here

An old hairy ass hillbilly

Still up and hangin' on



Made me think of a Similar time

In the Tropicannibal motel

Takin' showers 'bout every hour

'Cause I wasn't really feelin' well

Well in walked the Alabama Leanin' Man

His ol' buddy Billy Swann

Two old hairy ass hillbillies

Still up and hangin' on



[Chorus]

Takes a friend to make you laugh

A slap on the back someone who knows

Right where you're at

A friend in town who just heard you're around

Came by see how you're gettin' along



Most people go out to clubs

Just to see an electric dildo

A human jutebox who loves to play

Every single song they know

But they don't care if you blow your soul

They usually stand up and tell you so

And leave that hairy ass hillbilly

Still up and hangin' on



So wherever you may be tonight

I wish you luck

You may be with a friend of yours

And may your friend be your lady love

But if you gotta go and do a show

And afterwards you got no where to go

You're just a hairy ass hillbilly

Still up and hangin' on



Chorus
