What I Hate

by Merle Haggard

on Working In Tennessee (2011)

What I hate is
A statesman speaking out of both sides of his mouth
What I hate is
The war still going on down in the South

What I live for
Is a chance to change a little bit of it all
What I hate is
Is most folks don't seems to care at all

What I hate is
Looking up and seeing chem-trails in a clear blue sky today
What I hate is
Hittin' road blocks on a highway in my way

What I live for
Is a chance to change and be everything I can be
What I love is
Someone bright enough to see

What I hate is
What I hate and I always will
What I hate is
Someone mad enough to kill

What I love is
Someone with a heart that's really good
Now we can't change the whole wide world
Maybe we can change our neighborhood
