C           D             G
I’ve always been a non-conformist
C               D                  G
I never toe the mark Or walked the line
C                D            G          D/F#    Em
Just like Johnny Cash, I told ‘em all to kiss my ass
Am                 D
That was back in 1969.

    C           D               G
Hey radio, they hardly play my music
                             C
And you won’t see my face on MTV
                                    G D/F#            Em
And it must have been a shock, when I turned with Kid Rock
Am                                  D
And Uncle Kracker sang a song with me.

     C               D                    G
Ol’ Waylon died, and now there’s one less Outlaw
                                          C
Ah but Willie’s still in Austin don’t you know
                                          G      D/F#  Em
And they still say that I look like Merle Haggard
      Am                           D
And I sound a lot like David Allan Coe.
       C                    D           G
And my Longhair still can’t cover up my Redneck
 	  	  	                  C
And I still win every fight I ever fought
                                           G       D/F#    Em
Yes and I still hate them assholes tellin’ me that I’m too county
    Am                                  D
And sayin’ I’m ain’t worth the damn old ticket that they bout.

        G                             C
Cause I can sing songs, I wrote about Texas
D                                       G    
And I still do all the sad songs that I know
                                       C
Well I play a lot of rock, sometimes I play hip-hop
    Am                                   D
And I might do a couple songs without my band (who knows).
       C                    D           G
But my Longhair still can’t cover up my Redneck
