Free My Mind Lyrics

David Allan Coe Free My Mind

Songwriters: Ritchie, R.J.; Shafer, Matthew; Coe, David Allan;

I'm a cosmic cowboy, a big time player
I like Pantera, Kid Rock and Slayer
I like Ice-T, the rapper I mean
When it comes to drinkin' I like Jim Beam

I play Washburn guitars with a rebel flag
But I don't wear make-up or dress in drag
I smoke a lot, I'm a whiskey drinker
I ain't no hick songwriter, I'm a pretty deep thinker

I'm glad you came to see me put on a show
My name is David Allan Coe I came to let you know that

I've been tryin' to have a real good time
Forget about thinkin', tryin' to free my mind, yeah
I've been tryin' to have a real good time
Forget about thinkin', tryin' to free my mind

I own my own Limousine and a Cadillac
I got a million dollar tour bus and that's a fact
I ain't broke but I ain't rich
I call women, honey not hoe or bitch

I'm into Tanya Tucker, Twisted Brown Trucker
The Allman Brothers Band and Marshall Tucker
I'm not in this for money, I do it for fun
And I don't shoot dope but I will shoot my gun

I ain't no phony dude, I'm the real thing, baby
Just like Rob Zombie just like Slim Shady

And I've been tryin' to have a real good time
Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind, yeah
I've been tryin' to have a real good time
Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind, yeah

You know I love Uncle Kracker, he's a cool DJ
I like Prince Purple Rain, Hendrix Purple Haze
I like Hank Williams Sr., Hank the third and his dad
Hank Williams Jr., I mean he's bad

Willie Nelson, Waylon too
I like Newgrass, Bluegrass and Emmylou
I like Pete Seeger, Bob Seeger, Motorhead
Natalie Cole, Bill Monroe and the Grateful Dead

You know I tried to quit smokin' but I might be slippin'
I don't like Acid Rock but I might be trippin'

I've been tryin' to have a real good time
Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind, yeah
I've been tryin' to have a real good time, yeah
Forget about thinkin' tryin' to free my mind
