Big Shot Rich Man (failed - reindex) Jason Boland & The Stragglers
Folks like me, they’re always moving
It seems to [B7]be the only way to [E]stay
There ain’t nothin too [E]strange or too confusing
It’s better to [B7]change a little every[E]day
Some folks [E]travel, some folks settle
Some folks [B7]own and some folks [E]rent
Some folks [E]marry, some just stay single
Everybody [B7]wonders where the money [E]went
Chorus:
I don’t wanna to [E]live like a big shot rich man
I don’t wanna to [B7]live like a branded [E]slave
I just want to [E]give some land to my children
So they [B7]won’t have to buy my [E]grave
I want to go back to California
I want to be in that state once more
When the floods come in and the quakes are over
I hope I'm not sittin’ on the ocean floor
Gonna be with my friends back in Oklahoma
Gonna settle down on a piece of ground
I’ll have 100 wives and a mess of puppies
I could live my life, like a natural hound
Chorus
Gonna roll me a reefer, seven foot long
Smoke that reefer, I got turned on
I hocked a tape deck made in Hong Kong
I bought some more reefer, now my money’s gone
Chorus
