JASON LEE WILSON & JAMES COUNTY - HOLLYWOOD HILLBILLY (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

To honor the anniversary of this March the 6th, the last day of the seige of the Alamo in 1836 and the ongoing struggle for survival and territory, Jason Lee Wilson and JAMES COUNTY present the HOLLYWOOD HILLBILLY. On the face of this continent and others, there have been many struggles based on claims to the rights and authority of people and land, between empires and kingdoms thousands of miles removed, between neighboring countries, territories, states, counties, towns, communites, clans, tribes and families. Today there are more of those same winds of change blowing. One spirit guides an empire that aims for more control of all things and has no respect for life or nature. Notwithstanding, there is another spirit that has been placed in the hearts of a people who are determined to survive at all costs. Many of those people have recently begun an exodus from hostile lands in search of refuge among people of tradition and faith. They are the HOLLYWOOD HILLBILLY.

Lyrics:

Crockett said "I'm goin' to Texas the rest of y'all can go to hell
So they left for California to cast their evil spell
They lit the funeral pyres and they bowed to pagan gods
Made kings of thieves and liars and they shunned the natural law

While Davy fought the Alamo they tied damsels to the tracks
Took the gold and left us all holdin' the bag
Then along came the gunfighters with the Gatlins in the air
Cut a line in the sand, sayin' "devil, don't you dare!"

And the sons of pioneers and the daughters of liberty
Handed down the fight to me, the Hollywood Hillbilly

The Hollywood Hillbilly, I'm diggin in
The Hollywood Hillbilly, I hate your sin
The Hollywood Hillbilly, have no fear
The Hollywood Hillbilly, I'm outta here

I heard the late great golden state on the A.M. radio
Sayin' Kingdom come is comin' soon better go
And the kinfolk said "better off dead", so I high-tailed it outta there
To take a stand in the Southern land, do my share

And the sons of pioneers and the daughters of liberty
Handed down the fight to me, the Hollywood Hillbilly

The Hollywood Hillbilly, I'm diggin in
The Hollywood Hillbilly, I hate your sin
The Hollywood Hillbilly, have no fear
The Hollywood Hillbilly, I'm outta here
The Hollywood Hillbilly
