You can tell I'm from the country,
I'm beginnin' to catch on,
Some folks think I look foolish,
let 'em make a fool outta me
I work in fields of cotton,
But I ain't seen nothin' like
it since the day I was born
Some folks think I look foolish,
let 'em make a fool outta me
I walked in a crowded dance hall,
Some hillbilly's started pickin',
Some folks think I look foolish,
let 'em make a fool outta me
Well I spent all my money,
corn and cotton I have sold
I have left the old farm,
stay in town and rock and roll
Some folks think I look foolish,
let 'em make a fool outta me
Some folks think I look foolish,
let 'em make a fool outta me
