My Long Wont Cover My Redneck

C            D                 G
Country DJ's knows that I'm an outlaw.
G                                   C
They'd never come to see me in this dive.
C                                     G        D/F#   Em
Where bikers stare at cowboys who are laughen' at the hippies.
        Am                             D
Who are prayen' they'll get out of her alive.

[Verse 2]
    C                 D               G
The loud mouth in the corners gett'en to me.
G                                C
Talking about my earrings and my hair.
C                                  G         D/F#    Em
I guess he aint read the sign that says I've been to prison.
Am                                  D
Someone aught to warn him, before I knock him off his chair.

[Verse 3]
         C                    D           G
Cause my long hair just can't cover up my redneck.
G                              C
I've won every fight I've ever faught.
C                                    G         D/F#  Em
And I don't need some turkey telling me that I ain't country.
Am                             D
Say'en I aint worth a damn on, ticket that he bought.

[Chorus]
        G                              C
Cause I can sing all those songs about Texas,
D                                       G     D
And I still do all the sad one's that I know.
     G                          C
They tell me, I look like Merle Haggard,
    Am                          D
And sound alot like David Allen Coe.

[Verse 4]
C            D                      G
The barmaid in the last town that we played in
G                               C
Knew the words to every song I wrote
C                        G                      Em
She said Jimmy Rabbit turned her on to my last album.**
Am                       D
Just about the time the jukebox broke

C           D                    C
Johnny Cash helped me get out of prison
G                                 C
Long before Rodriguez stole that goat
C                       G                         Em
I've been a Rhinestone Cowboy for so long I can't remember
Am                             D
And I can sing you every song Hank Williams ever wrote.

[Chorus]
       G                              C
Cause I can sing all those songs about Texas,
D                                       G     D
And I still do all the sad one's that I know.
     G                          C
They tell me, I look like Merle Haggard,
    Am                          D
And sound alot like David Allen Coe.

[Verse 5]
         C                    D           G
Cause my long hair just can't cover up my redneck.
G                              C
I've won every fight I've ever faught.
C                                    G         D/F#  Em
And I don't need some turkey telling me that I ain't country.
Am                             D
Say'en I aint worth a damn on, ticket that he bought.

         C                    D           G
Cause my long hair just can't cover up my redneck.
