Country Trash Songtext

von Johnny Cash

I got a crib full of corn, and a turnin' plow
But the ground's to wet for the hopper now.
Got a cultivator and a double tree
A leather line for the hull and gee
Let the thunder roar and the lighting flash
I'm doing alright for Country Trash

I'm saving up dimes for a rainy day
I got about a dollar laid away
The winds from the south and the fishing's good
Got a pot belly stove and a quart of wood
Mama turns left-overs into hash
I'm doing alright for Country Trash

I got a machina and a hunting dog
A cap that I ordered from the catalog
A bug tall tree that shades the yard
A big fat sow for the winters lard
Let the thunder roar and the lighting flash
I'm doing alright for Country Trash

Well there's not much new ground left to plow
And the crops need fertilizer now
My hands don't earn too much gold
For security when I grow old
But we'll all be equal under the grass
And God's got a heaven for Country Trash
And God's got a heaven for Country Trash
I'll be doing alright for Country Trash
