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 deputals

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

You can't play Hendrix on a banjo

Mama Walked The Flood 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

Mama made a well rounded outcast out of me





Born and raised on acid country

Eating cold hammocks and a handful of placidils

Daddy couldn't take it he had to go

Playing Alice Cooper on a dobro

Wearing leather hip pokers working in the cotton fields





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 this guy

I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die

Chet Atkins singing 'I want my 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
