Hard To Be a Hippie

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
It used to be thatYou could up and thumb a ride from nashville to L. AAnd everyone who stopped and picked you upWould get you high along the wayAnd it used to be thatYou could fall in and out of love in an afternoonAnd then fall again that eveningAnd not think that it was happening too soonBut it's hard to be a hippie anymoreIt hurts more nowWaking up on the floorOh, it's still freeBut it ain't easy like beforeIt's hard to be a hippie anymoreFire it up boysIt used to be just walking down the streetWould make the people stop and stareNow all the cowboys and the preppiesAnd the rednecks and the yuppies have long hairBut I was always going placesIn my head and seeing things that blew my mindNow the only thing I'm trippin' onAre my own two feet, trying to keep up with the timesAh yeah, you know that's rightBut it's hard to be a hippie anymoreIt hurts more nowWaking up on the floorOh, it's still freeBut it ain't easy like beforeIt's hard to be a hippie anymoreLord, it's still freeBut it ain't easy like beforeIt's hard to be a hippie anymore
