Well, you say I talk like a hick
Has never been out of the sticks
Well, that's the way I talk,
That's the way I walk
And you say I slouch around
Just like a big old hungry hound
Well that's the way I walk
babe, that's the way I talk
If the Lord had wanted me
to dazzle society
He wouldn't have sent me down
in a little bitty Georgia town
Now if you want a clean vine
You're talkin' to a Georgia pine
That's the way I talk, baby
And that's the way I walk
Why does a woman take a man
And change him every way she can?
If your friend's got so many charms,
what you doing in my arms?
Now if you want a clinging vine,
you're talking to a Georgia pine
That's the way I talk, baby,
that's the way I walk
And that's the way I told me,
that's the way I want
