Willy the Hillbilly Songtext
von Johnny Long

Willy wore a coonskin hat, toothpick in his grin
His overalls were held together with a safety pin
He′d stomp his boots on the porch kickin' up the dirt
Said, "I′m the best picker in the holler that I will assert!"

Willy the Hillbilly, he's the real deal wild one
Carried a moonshine jug and a twenty-gauge shotgun
He'd two-step through the holler just to raise some hell
Willy the Hillbilly, he′s a devil, ain′t no one can tell

He courted sweet Daisy Mae hottest girl in town
But she had eyes for Jeb the funny junky with a frown
So Willy challenged Jeb to a moonshine duel at dawn
Shootin' booze, pickin′ banjos, till they passed out on the lawn

Willy the Hillbilly, he's the real deal wild one
Carried a moonshine jug and a twenty-gauge shotgun
He′d two-step through the holler just to raise some hell
Willy the Hillbilly, he's a devil, ain′t no one can tell


Willy's old truck had a bumper sticker that read
"Keep honkin', I′m reloadin", that′s what Willy said
He'd race the possums down the road, bettin′ on their speed
When the sheriff came, Willy vanished like a tumbleweed

Willy's old truck had a bumper sticker that read
"Keep honkin′, I'm reloadin" that′s what Willy said
He'd race the possums down the road, bettin' on their speed
When the sheriff came, Willy vanished like a tumbleweed

Then one night at the slow down hoedown
Willy met a big city slicker
The Slicker wore a gold Rolex watch
Willy ill from drinking all the liquor
Slicker told Willy "I′ll buy you out"
Willie′s gun finger ready on the trigger
Slicker, stoic, said don't hand me no sass
Willie′s gun hammer went down with the whiskey jigger
As Willy fired birdshot square into the cheeks of the City Slicker's ass

Willy the Hillbilly, he′s the real deal wild one
Carried a moonshine jug and a twenty-gauge shotgun
He'd two-step through the holler just to raise some hell
Willy the Hillbilly, he′s a devil, ain't no one can tell
