LYRICS
He was born in OklahomaHis wife’s name was old Betty
Lou Thelma Liz
And he ain’t responsible for what he is doing
Because his mama made him what he is
Chorus:
And it’s up
against the wall red neck mother
A mother who has raised her son so well
So well, so well, so what
He’s 34 and drinking in a
honkey tonk
What’s he doing down there?
He’s just kicking hippies asses and raising hell
Well, you know he sure loves to drink
that fishtail beer
And he chases it down with old Wild Turkey bourbon liquor
He drives a ’57 GMC pick-up truck
With a gun rack
and a he’d rather step in shit than to smoke his bumper sticker
Chorus
(this always changes)
M is for the mud flaps on my
pick-up truck
O is for the oil I put in my hair
T is for t-bird H if for Haggard
E is for eggs, enzymes, and enemas
And R is
for REDNECK!
Chorus
