Computer man says it's the end of time  December 31st nineteen ninety-nine  People buyin' up Army 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, a rifle  And a four wheel drive  A country boy can survive  Country folks can survive  I can plow a field all day long  I can catch catfish from dusk 'till dawn  Make our own whiskey  And our own smoke too  Ain't too many things these ol' boys can't do  [including Bocephus]  We grow good ol' tomatoes  And homemade wine  A country boy can survive  Country folks can survive   'Cause you can't starve us out  And you can't make us run  We'll survive in the millenium  We say grace  And we say ma'am  If you ain't into that we don't give a damn  We came from the West Virginia coal mines  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  He never called me Bocephus  Called me hillbilly  [really]  But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife  For forty-three 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 you can't starve us out  And you can't make us run  We'll survive in the millenium  We say grace  And we say ma'am  If you ain't into that we don't give a damn  We're from North California  And south Alabam'  And little towns all around this land  If the bank machine's 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, anytime]
