I'm a cosmic cowboy   A big time player   I like Pantera, Kid Rock, and Slayer   I like Ice-T the rapper I mean   When it comes to drinkin' I like Jim Beam   I play Washburn guitars with a rebel flag   But I don't wear make-up or dress in drag   I smoke a lot, I'm a whiskey drinker   I ain't no hick songwriter    I'm a pretty deep thinker   I'm glad you came to see me put on a show   My name is David Allan Coe I came to let you know that..      Chorus   I've been tryin' to have a real good time   Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind   I've been tryin' to have a real good time   Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind      I own my own limosuine and a Cadillac   I got a million dollar tour bus and that's a fact   I ain't broke but I ain't rich   I call women honey not hoe or bitch   I'm into Tanya Tucker, Twisted Brown Trucker   The Allman Brothers Band and Marshall Tucker   I'm not in this for money I do it for fun   And I don't shoot dope but I will shoot my gun      I ain't no phony dude    I'm the real thing baby   Just like Rob Zombie just like Slim Shady      Chorus   And I've been tryin' to have a real good time   Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind   I've been tryin' to have a real good time   Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind      You know I love Uncle Kracker he's a cool DJ   I like Prince Purple Rain, Hendrix Purple Haze   I like Hank Williams Sr., Hank the third and his dad   Hank Williams Jr. I mean he's bad   Willie Nelson, Waylon too   I like newgrass, bluegrass, and Emmylou   I like Pete Seeger, Bob Seeger, Motorhead   Natalie Cole, Bill Monroe, and the Grateful Dead   You know I tried to quit smokin' but I might be slippin'   I don't like acid rock but I might be trippin'      Chorus   I've been tryin' to have a real good time   Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind   I've been tryin' to have a real good time   Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind
