Chorus:] Well, I mighta' been born just poor white trash But I sold a million records; made a little cash The doctors and the lawyers don't think it funny That they're living next door to white trash with money
Well, I was born on the wrong side of the tracks I quit school early and I never went back The rich kids all looked down on me They said as good as them was something I'd never be
I started playing my guitar to earn a few bucks Singing my song to a room full of drunks A record man heard me down at Kitty's bar Said: \"Come on to Nashville an' I'll make you a star\"
[Chorus]
I bought a big house on top of the hill A brand new Harley and a Coupe de Ville The neighbors all cried when I moved in It seems real estate's cheaper than it's ever been
Now the radio plays all the Railroad songs I lay around the pool and listen all day long This country boy's life sure turned out swell An' if the neighbor's don't like it, they can all go to ...
[Chorus x2]
Yeah, life's just fine for me an' my honey We're happy just bein' white trash with money.
