We're flatland hillbillies, Irish Cajun Creole mix My brothers on an off shore rig, my sister's on the pole at slicks Mama takes in peoples washing, she was widowed by a pipeline man We're flatland hillbillies, getting by on what we can We're river rats and john boat shrimpers, trouble in our DNA It wouldn't be the same Port Arthur if we got up and moved away God forbid we hit the lotto, chances are we'd wind up shot We're flatland hillbillies, getting by on what we've got Flatland hillbillies heathen to the marrow bone Working on your cars and drinking in your bars And running every red-light home, yeah If you've never ran a trot line, never skinned an eight point buck Never had a squirrel-meat sandwich (covered up in gravy) Then I guess you're just out of luck (and I don't mean maybe) Living on the edge of nowhere (we ain't going nowhere) Isn't for the feint of heart (oh no, we're not) We're flatland hillbillies, waiting on the fire to start Flatland hillbillies, another other breed apart
