(gary rossington – ed king – johnny van zant – mike estes)
Getting work ain’t easy in the hills of tennessee
But things are bad all over my friends keep telling me
Even though i grew up there and never thought i’d leave
Had too many bills to pay, seven mouths to feed
Movin’ to the city was all that i could do
Got them hillbilly blues
People here won’t say goodmorning, they won’t even take the time
I guess i know just how it feels to have something on your mind
So all i want is to go back home and fish in a mountain stream
This ol’ life i’m living lord, you know it ain’t for me
They say the sun it shines out here, but all i see is rain
Got them hillbilly blues
Got them hillbilly blues
All i want is to go back home and fish in a mountain stream
This ol’ life i’m living lord, you know it ain’t for me
They say the sun it shines out here, but all i see is rain
Got them hillbilly blues
Hillbilly blues
Hillbilly blues
