Who are praying they'll get outta here alive
Long before Rodriguez stole that goat
I can't help it, I look like Merle Haggard
'Cause my longhair just can't cover up my red neck
The loud mouth in the corner's gettin' to me
Who are praying they'll get out of here alive
And I can do you every song, Hank Williams ever wrote
Knew the words to every song I'd wrote
And sayin' I ain't worth the damned ol' ticket that he bought
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies
Talking 'bout my earrings and my hair
And I can sing all them songs about Texas
And they'd never come to see me in this dive
She said, Jimmy Rabbit turned her on to my last album
And I sound a lot like David Allen Coe
Just about the time the jukebox broke
And I still do all the sad ones that I know
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughing at the hippies
And the bar maid in the last town that we played in
'Cause I can sing all them songs about Texas
Yeah, Johny Cash helped me get out of prison
They tell me, I look like Merle Haggard
Someone ought to warn him 'fore I knock him off his chair
I've won every fight, I've ever fought
I guess he ain't read the signs that say I been to prison
Hey, I don't need some turkey telling me that I ain't country
And I still do all the sad ones that I know
And sound a lot like David Allen Coe
The loud mouth in the corner's gettin' to me
But the country deejays, all think I'm an outlaw
I've been the Rhinestone Cowboy for so long, I can't remember
