The Ballad of Scumbag Country

Walking home at
One last Reno last call
Raising hell with all my rowdy friends and
snorting coke in a bathroom stall. Lord we had a ball… And
This song goes out to the scumbags
Just like every song I sing
Just a song about this hard life we lead, lord
Outlaws and scumbags like me
I never made it down to Nashville Tennessee
They dont get my scumbag songs
Getting rich is the last thing i’d ever need
Dope is all I’d spend it on
I’d be dead before too long and
This song goes out to the scumbags
Just like every song I sing
Just a song about this hard life we lead, lord
Outlaws and scumbags like me
I aint rich, but I’m doing OK
Still singing these country songs Still trying to get paid
I know it aint much but I’m proud to say that
Old Waylon just might have done it this way, if he were here today
This song goes out to the scumbags
Just like every song I sing
Just a song about this hard life we lead, lord
Outlaws and scumbags like me
Outlaws and scumbags like me
Singing my scumbag country
