Karaoké Hard to Be a Hippie Billy Currington & Willie Nelson

It used to be that you could up and thumb a ride from Nashville to L.A.

And everyone who stopped and picked you up would get you high along the way

And it used to be that you could fall in and out of love in an afternoon

And then fall again that evening and not think that it was happening too soon

But it's hard to be a hippie anymore

It hurts more now waking up on the floor

Oh it's still free but it ain't easy like before

It's hard to be a hippie anymore

Fire it up boys

It used to be just walking down the street would make the people stop and stare

Now all the cowboys and the preppies the rednecks, the yuppies have long hair

But I was always going places in my head and seeing things that blew my mind

Now the only thing

I'm trippin' on are my own two feet trying to keep up with the times

Ah yeah you know that's right

But it's hard to be a hippie anymore

It hurts more now waking up on the floor

Oh it's still free but it ain't easy like before

It's hard to be a hippie anymore

Lord it's still free but it ain't easy like before

It's hard to be a hippie anymore
