My hippie boy don't want to be a man My hippie boy don't want to understand My hippie boy don't lives in a volkswagon van My hippie boy don't don't know how to communicate Says he knows love that knows no hate My hippie boy leaves his life up to fate Yeah he's my hippie boy My hippie boy don't don't know his own feelings Wants to draw flowers on my ceiling I think my hippies boy's trying to do me in My hippie boy don't don't follow the commandmants Don't follow law, he don't follow government My hippie boy wants to start his own settlement Yeah he's my hippie boy And he said "come sit beside me And tell me 'bout the things you adore And please don't remind me that I am not the boy you'd hoped for..." My hippie boy won't get up off his ass He don't care if he fail or if he pass My hippie boy ... i know he's been smoking grass My hippie boy don't ever know where to begin Says he wasn't put on this earth to fit it My hippie boy got his mama sticking up for him Yeah he's my hippie boy And he said "come sit beside me And tell me 'bout the things you adore And please don't remind me that I am not the boy you'd hoped for..." My hippie boy left our lives to join a band Says his band plays throughout the land My hippie boy bought his mom a car for 20 grand They say he's putting our town up on the map The mayor called this morning for a photograph Now he kids are asking me for my autograph Because of my hippie boy
