Quick Thoughts.
1. the direction your vocals come from is distracting sometimes. your melody fits the feel though so it's not pulling me too far off base. I listened in headphones and I cocked my head to the side a couple times and went "wha....?"
2. i want to hear you match your environment more vocally. you sound like you are in a different room than your mix. Feel bad giving you this comment, because when I mix myself, I have not yet really gotten this quite right. We shall see who accomplishes this first I suppose.

3. Solo section is really nice and airtight and pleasing to listen to. This reminds me of what is good about Jimmy Buffet stuff. If you don't like him I'm sorry, but I like some of the more obscure stuff that is not overplayed and this is what I am talking about, more - a kind of casual feel. Your presentation isn't hectic and that's kinda nice.
4. Really nice hook.
5. Vocal grows on you, quite lots. If you were really careful and tasteful about its presentation (which comes with more and more practice and people being mean to you, in my experience), then it will get really smooth and polished and you'll have a strong style.

1. You need to work on your hillbilly accent. It's not white trash enough.
2. The song is 2 minutes long, but continues playing nothing for 4:25 minutes.
3. All the guitars need some chorus to thicken them up in the mix. But nice riffin'
4. The left and right panned guitars are panned too far left and right. It does give good separation, but should move a little more towards the center.
5. I like the harmonica and guitar playing.

Vocals are mixed too high and sound like they weren't recorded in the same universe as the backing. The difference in production makes it sound like this is a live board recording of a karaoke performance. Try EQing down the treble on the vocals and adding a little smidge of reverb or chorus or something.

I can tell you're white. Because your voice doesn't sound like it has a huge penis.
I know your hair's turning white, your neck's always been red and your collar's still blue.
