Honky-Tonk Hippie Songtext
von LANCO

I was born on Southern ground
Moved to Nashville, Tennessee
Neon lights and broken hearts
Gave me all my melodies

One night, I met the record man
Said, "I like your band and I like your sound"
But one thing he don′t understand
Buyin' in ain′t sellin' out
Yeah, but he found out

I'm a long hair, don′t care, son of a gun
I wear my T-shirts with rock ′n' roll bands on the front
And no matter what you′ve heard
There's just two words to explain me

I′m a honky-tonk hippy
A honky-tonk hippy (yeah!)

Cut some tunes under a neon cross
Saddled up and hit the road
Turns out gettin' found was gettin′ lost
In a '98 Winnebago


People started showin' up
"Sold Out" up on that marquee
Throwin′ down and lightin′ up
Man, it's still a mystery what you see in me

′Cause I'm a long hair, don′t care, son of a gun
I wear my T-shirts with rock 'n′ roll bands on the front
And no matter what you've heard
There's just two words to explain me

I′m a honky-tonk hippy
A honky-tonk hippy
I′m a honky-tonk hippy
A honky-tonk hippy, yeah, yeah

Got a big old bus and records on the wall
But if it ever fades away
One thing I can promise y'all
Is one thing that′ll never change
'Til my dyin′ day ('til my dyin′day)
'Til my dyin' day (′til my dyin′day)
'Til my dyin′ day


I'm a long hair, don′t care, son of a gun
I wear my T-shirts with rock 'n′ roll bands on the front
And no matter what you've heard
There's just two words to explain me
I′m a honky-tonk hippy
I′m a honky-tonk hippy

Yeah, I'm a honky-tonk hippy, hippy, hippy
I′m a honky-tonk hippy
