A Country Boy Can Survive (y2k Verison) Lyrics

A Country Boy Can Survive (y2k Verison) lyrics

Computer man says it's the end of time

December 31st nineteen
ninety-nine

People buyin' up Army surplus things

Afraid of what the New
Year will bring



I live back in the woods you see

Y2K don't mean a
thing to me

I've got a shotgun, a rifle

And a four wheel drive

A
country boy can survive

Country folks can survive



I can plow a
field all day long

I can catch catfish from dusk 'till dawn

Make our
own whiskey

And our own smoke too

Ain't too many things these ol' boys
can't do

[including Bocephus]



We grow good ol' tomatoes

And
homemade wine

A country boy can survive

Country folks can survive




'Cause you can't starve us out

And you can't make us
run

We'll survive in the millenium

We say grace

And we say
ma'am

If you ain't into that we don't give a damn



We came from the
West Virginia coal mines

And the rocky mountains and the western
skies

If the bank machines crash

We'll be just fine

'Cause a
country boy can survive

Country folks can survive



I had a good
friend in New York City

He never called me Bocephus

Called me
hillbilly

[really]



But he was killed by a man with a switchblade
knife

For forty-three dollars my friend lost his life

Now this dude's
gonna get out in a year or two

'Cause the system don't work for me and
you

But a country boy can survive

Country folks can
survive



'Cause you can't starve us out

And you can't make us
run

We'll survive in the millenium



We say grace

And we say
ma'am

If you ain't into that we don't give a damn



We're from North
California

And south Alabam'

And little towns all around this
land

If the bank machine's crash	

We'll be just fine

And a country
boy can survive



Country folks can survive

Country boy can
survive

Country folks can survive

[Any year, anytime]
