A Country Boy Can Survive (y2k Version) Lyrics

A Country Boy Can Survive (y2k Version) 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 donc12
