Lyrics

Well, the weatherman said it might storm todayI gotta hit the field, gotta bail some hayAnd I can’t let it rain on my daddy’s farm‘Til I get it all stacked up high in the barn
And I’m gonna call my baby, she’s been waiting on me, yeahShe lives downtown on Sycamore Street andThe wheels on the blacktop are startin’ to whineAs I pass that Oklahoma City limit sign
I’m a hayseed and a plowboyI’m a farm kid and a cowboyI’m a roughneckMy daddy was a roughneck too, whoa
I run around with hillbilly girlsThe weekend sits on my hillbilly worldYou better be ready when the sun goes downThat’s when country comes to town
Well, her daddy said, “Child, better let him be”Well, I don’t like him and he sure don’t like meHer momma just says, “Y’all have a little funSee, ain’t doin’ nothing me and papa ain’t done”And, uh, open up the door to my pick-up truckAnd my baby jumps in and she fires it upAnd she gives me a kiss as I crawl inWe’ve been waiting all week for a weekend
I’m a hayseed and a plowboyI’m a farm kid and a cowboyI’m a roughneckMy daddy was a roughneck too, whoa
I run around with hillbilly girlsWhen the weekend sits on my hillbilly worldYou better be ready when the sun goes down‘Cause that’s when country comes to town
Yeah, it’s true I run around with hillbilly girlsThe weekend sits on my hillbilly worldYou better be ready when the sun goes downThat’s when country comes to town
Here I come
