Rednecks

Written by：Randy Newma

Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show

With some smart a** New York Jew

And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox

And the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too

Well he may be a fool but he's our fool

If they think they're better than him they're wrong

So I went to the park and I took some paper along

And that's where I made this song

We talk real funny down here

We drink too much and we laugh too loud

We're too dumb to make it no Northern town

We keepin' the niggers down

We got no-necked oilmen from Texas

And good ol' boys from Tennessee

And college men from L S U

Went in dumb come out dumb too

Hustlin' 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes

Gettin' drunk every weekend at the barbecues

We keepin' the niggers down

We're rednecks we're rednecks

We don't know our a** from a hole in the ground

We're rednecks we're rednecks

We keepin' the niggers down

Now your northern nigger's a Negro

You see he's got his dignity

Down here we're too ignorant to realize

That the North has set the n****r free

Yes he's free to be put in a cage in Harlem in New York City

And he's free to be put in a cage

In the South-Side of Chicago the West-Side

And he's free to be put in a cage in Hough in Cleveland

And he's free to be put in a cage in East St Louis

And he's free to be put in a cage in Fillmore in San Francisco

And he's free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston

They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around

Keepin' the niggers down

We're rednecks we're rednecks

We don't know our a** from a hole in the ground

We're rednecks we're rednecks

We keepin' the niggers down

We are keepin' the niggers down
