Granddaddy grew up on dirt floors<br />The whole county was dirt poor<br />Momma died when he was four<br />What a damn shame <br /><br />They grew tobacco and raised hogs<br />Seven youngins and some old dogs <br />I reckon they were living high on the hog <br />Way back in their day <br /><br />He'd say you won't born to just to pay bills and die <br />You wont born to just pay bills and die <br />All you need is a dog, a shack with a creek in the back, <br />And a good woman to hold <br />You don't need that Rich Man's Gold <br /><br />People walking down easy street<br />Acting like they've got hot coals under their feet <br />But they ain't been one day without nothing to eat <br />You can bet the farm on that <br /><br />You gotta start living off the land, and living on love <br />Giving up thanks to the Lord above<br />Cause when they put you down, in that cold dark ground <br /><br />You gonna wish you won't born to just pay bills and die <br />You wont born to just pay bills and die <br />All you need is a dog, a shack, with a creek in the back<br />And a good woman to hold <br />Don't need that Rich Man's Gold
