[Verse]
Homer’s got himself a lady from a big bright town
She don’t like his turnip greens
Chewing 'bacca makes her frown
Now he’s sipping fancy tea in a shiny porcelain cup
Hillbilly folks just laugh ’cause Homer’s all dressed up

[Verse 2]
He’s trading his old pickup for a shiny city ride
No more muddy boots
Now he's got them polished pride
His Pappy’s lettin' loose
Says he can’t understand
How that city lady turned his boy into a fancy man

[Chorus]
Homer hates turnip greens
No more chewing 'bacca
City woman teaching him how to wear a bowtie proper
Folks back home just laugh
They don’t know what it means
To see a hillbilly boy hating them turnip greens

[Verse 3]
But one day she left him
Said goodbye with a wave
Homer felt that heartbreak
Couldn’t be the man she'd crave
He went back to the holler
Feeling kind of low
Hillbilly folks just laughed
Said they told him so

[Bridge]
With his fancy tie undone
He’s back in his ragged jeans
Munching on turnip greens
Living hillbilly dreams
Realized he missed it
The simple life he knew
Now he’s chewing 'bacca
Spitting with the crew

[Verse 4]
Homer's pappy shook his head
But gave a knowing grin
Homer found his roots and the hillbilly within
No more fancy dinners
No more living clean
Just a hillbilly man with his tasty turnip greens
