[00:00.300]
[00:10.590]It used to be that
[00:12.980]You could up and thumb a ride from Nashville to L.A.
[00:20.360]And everyone who stopped and picked you up
[00:23.560]Would get you high along the way
[00:29.610]And it used to be that
[00:32.880]You could fall in and out of love in an afternoon
[00:39.080]And then fall again that evening
[00:41.470]And not think that it was happening too soon
[00:45.550]
[00:49.080]But it's hard to be a hippie anymore
[00:58.850]It hurts more now
[01:01.537]Waking up on the floor
[01:08.230]Oh, it's still free
[01:11.078]But it ain't easy like before
[01:18.268]It's hard to be a hippie anymore
[01:27.238]Fire it up boys
[01:48.170]It used to be just walking down the street
[01:50.789]Would make the people stop and stare
[01:57.090]Now all the cowboys and the preppies
[01:59.980]And the rednecks and the yuppies have long hair
[02:06.188]But I was always going places
[02:08.788]In my head and seeing things that blew my mind
[02:16.258]Now the only thing I'm trippin' on
[02:18.848]Are my own two feet, trying to keep up with the times
[02:23.098]Ah yeah, you know that's right
[02:25.468]
[02:26.300]But it's hard to be a hippie anymore
[02:35.979]It hurts more now
[02:38.429]Waking up on the floor
[02:45.438]Oh, it's still free
[02:48.098]But it ain't easy like before
[02:55.218]It's hard to be a hippie anymore
[03:04.949]Lord, it's still free
[03:07.369]But it ain't easy like before
[03:14.758]It's hard to be a hippie anymore
