Hank Williams Jr. - Country State of Mind lyrics

That hot old summer sun make you
Beg for your next breath
So you best be on the creek bank
Laid in the shade
Chewin' on a hickory twig, pass that bottle
I'll have me a swig i ain't got a lot
But I think I got it made in the shade

I'm just laid up here in
A country state of mind
Catchin' these fish like they're
Goin' out of style
Drinkin' this homemade wine
Hey, if the sun don't
Come up tomorrow, people
I've had a good time
I'm just laid up here in
A country state of mind


I bet the old man's in the kitchen
He's got my kind of music on his radio
Oh, drinkin' his beer and dialin'
Up the request lines
Mama and old Aunt Joan probably in the
Dinin' room tryin' to use the phone
Me, I'm thinkin' about that
Girl and later tonight

I'm just laid up here in
A country state of mind
Hey, I'm catchin' these fish like
They're goin' out of style
I'm drinkin' this homemade wine
And if the sun don't
Come up tomorrow, people
I've had a good time
I'm just laid up here in
A country state of mind

You know, the rednecks and the preppies
They're in their discos and honky-tonks
Somewhere between raisin' hell
And amazin' grace
Lord, I know just how they feel
You gotta get out and kick up your heels
And ain't it great to be livin' in the USA

Me, I'm laid up here in
A country state of mind
Catchin' these fish like they're goin' out
Of style, drinkin' this homemade wine
All the time
If the sun don't shine tomorrow, people
I have had a good time
I'm just laid up here in
A country state of mind

Yodel ay-ee oh, del ay-ee oh, del ay
