Computer man says it's the end of time,
December 31,1999,
People buyin' up on the surplus things,
Afraid of what the New Year will bring,
I live back in the woods you see,
Y2K don't mean a thing to me,
I've got a shotgun, riffle and a 4-wheel drive,
Country boy can survive,
Country folks can survive,
I can plow a field all day long,
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn,
We make our own whisky and our own smoke too,
Ain't too many things these old boys can't do,
We grow good old tomatoes and homemade wine,
Country boy can survive,
Country folks can survive,
Cause ya can't starve us out and ya can't make us run,
We'll survive the millennium,
We say grace and we say ma'am,
If ya ain't into that we don't give a damn,
We came from the West Virginia coalmines
And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies,
If the bank machines crash we'll be just fine,
Cause a country boy can survive,
Country folks can survive,
I had a good friend in New York City,
Never called me Bocephus called me hillbilly,
Well he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife,
For 43 dollars my friend lost his life,
Now this dude's gonna get out in a year or two,
Cause the system don't work for me and you,
But a country boy can survive,
Country folks can survive,
Cause ya can't starve us out and ya can't make us run,
We'll survive the millennium,
We say grace and we say ma'am if ya ain't into that we don't give a damn,
We're from North Carolina and south Alabam,
And little towns all around this land,
If the bank machines crash we'll be just fine,
And a country boy can survive,
Country folks can survive,
Country boy can survive,
Country folks can survive,
Any year, any time
