Don't live in the country
Don't make moonshine
Never worked the lands
Nor been down the mine
I'm just a city boy
With a back street jelly roll
But when it comes to music
I've a hillbilly soul

chorus
Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
I'm just a city boy with a hillbilly soul
Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
I'm just a city boy with a hillbilly soul

Ain't been to the mountains
Don't know no mountain folk
Never tried a lifestyle too busy in the smoke
All those open spaces, the fresh air makes me choke
But when it comes to music it's hillbilly 'til I croak

chorus

Now I ain't superstitious
Don't put my trust in god
Don't believe in healers
Or the wisdom of the lord
Don't need no 4 leaf clover
I don't need no cure
But when it comes to music it's hillbilly or it's pure

chorus
