Supposed to be a music site. Got to get some redneck songs in here.

Lyr. Add: REDNECK MOTHER
(Jerry Jeff Walker)

He was (G)born in West (C)Virginia,
His (D)wife's name's Betty Lou Thelma (G)Liz
(G)And he's not responsible for what he's (C)doing
'Cause his (D)mother made him what he (G)is.

(G)Up against the wall Redneck (C)Mother,
(D)Mother, who has raised her son so (G)well.
(G)He's thirty-four and drinking in a (C)honky tonk.
Just (D)kicking hippies asses and raising (G)hell.

Sure does like his Falstaff beer,
Likes to chase it down with that Wild Turkey liquor,
Drives a fifty-seven GMC pickup truck;
He's got a gun rack; "Goat ropers need love, too" sticker.

Well,
M is for mudflaps you give me for my pickup truck
O is for the oil I put on my hair
T is for T-bird
H is for Haggard
E is for eggs, and
R is for REDNECK.
(Audience- Put them all together, they spell mother---)
