right along the mason dixon line a little shack sittin back in the pines
there was an old man rockin on his porch drinkin shine
he said let me tell you about the good old days
about plowing fields and buildn' the hay
we didnt have much money but we did fine
cause we had bear in the mountains
and deer in the woods
and the corn grew tall just like it should
friday night had a hillbilly ball
kickin and singin and carryin on
summer time in the pale moon light
me and my girl gettin it right
its a way of life hey it suits me fine
talkin bout a hillbilly state of mind
me and that old timer talked for awhile
about where he grew up when he was a child
we sat and reminised about the good old days
i said aint it funny how times have changed
machines plow the fields and build that hay
some things will always say the same
cause we had bear in the mountains
and deer in the woods
and the corn grows tall just like it should
friday night had a hillbilly ball
kickin and singin and carryin on
summer time in the pale moon light
me and my girl gettin it right
its a way of life hey it suits me fine
talkin bout a hillbilly state of mind
we had bear in the mountains
deer in the woods
and the corn grows tall just like it should
friday night had a hillbilly ball
kickin and singin and carryin on
summer time in the pale moon light
me and my girl gettin it right
its a way of life hey it suits me fine
talkin bout a hillbilly state of mind
whoa state of mind
a hillbilly state of mind
