Tim Wilson - Acid Country lyrics

Mama made us listen to Pink Floyd and Floyd Cramer

We had three square meals of mushrooms and cornbread

Mama's kitchen smelled a lot like incense and cathead biscuits

We'd watch Porter and Dolly then throw on the Grateful Dead

Born and raised on acid country

Eating turnip greens and a handful of Debutol Nembutal

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

You can't play Hendrix on a banjo

Mama Walked The Floor and laid another brick in The Wall

Our heroes were Roy Acuff and Abbey Hoffman

And we grew up outside of Woodstock, Tennessee

Listening to Faron Young and a side of Inagaddadivita In-a-Gadda-da-Vita

Mama made a well rounded outcast out of me

Born and raised on acid country

Eating cold ham-hocks and a handful of Placidyls

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

Playing Alice Cooper on a dobro

Wearing leather hip huggers working in the cotton mill

And if you Don't eat your meat you can't have any pudding

And son you're walking on the Fighting Side Of Me

Excuse me while I kiss the sky

I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die

Chet Atkins playin' a "Guitar On the MTV"

Born and raised on acid country

Making Smoke On Water sound a lot like Uncle Pen

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

You can't mix Deep Purple and Bill Monroe

And Sunshine Of Your Love while yodeling

Mama made a well rounded outcast out of me
