Waylon Jennings - Laid Back Country Picker Lyrics
South bound out of Shreveport heading hell bent for his graveHe reads a sign on the barn door that says the good lord Jesus savesBut I don't think Jesus knows him 'cause he ain't the Jesus kindHe's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mindHe gave the folks a good show at the Shreveport ColiseumThey all heard he's dying, so they all come out to seeFriends and neighbors make him happyLord them snuff queens treat him kindHe's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mindUppers, downers, turn arounders picked him up and laid him downHis old troubles keep on swimming 'cause their to damn mean to drownHe keeps looking for an answer I know he's never gonna findHe's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mindBig Bertha, back in Beaumont says he really turns her onShe hits the floor a dancing, when the DJ plays his songYou can see somebody loves him, or at least they did one timeHe's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mindUppers, downers, turn arounders picked him up and laid him downHis old troubles keep on swimming 'cause their to damn mean to drownHe keeps looking for an answer I know he's never gonna findHe's a laid back country picker with a laid back country mind
