Subject: Rednecks, White Socks From: Greenglassgoblin@hotmail.com Date: 01 Mar 99 - 09:14 PM Anyone know where I can get the music to or a recording of "Rednecks, White Socks and Blue Ribbon Beer"? Thanks, Susan |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Ronn Date: 01 Mar 99 - 11:21 PM The song was recorded by a singer named Johnny Russell sometime in the late 60's. It is still available on a couple of different collections, one called REDNECK COUNTRY and another called something like COUNTRY'S GREATEST DRINKING SONGS, to name two. |

Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Lin in Kansas Date: 11 Oct 01 - 01:42 PM Oops. Last line of lyrics should of course read "white socks," NOT "which socks"! Lin |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: MMario Date: 11 Oct 01 - 01:52 PM wow! Lin you are getting into this! (This was one of the "missing tunes" - I should have said Lin provided the midi for me) |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Mrrzy Date: 11 Oct 01 - 02:09 PM Why aren't we singing this one now that we're all patriotic and all? I think I'll start. I love this song anyway... |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Lin in Kansas Date: 11 Oct 01 - 02:35 PM Ha! That's why I had that handy, MMario. And yes, it's kinda neat when you can answer a request, but it dawned on me (too late, of course) that I shoulda put a link to it in the DT, instead of posting the lyrics! DUHHHH!! Oh, well, maybe adding the chords makes up for it??
And Mrrzy, have you ever actually drunk Blue Ribbon beer? Yetchhhhh...!

Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: MMario Date: 11 Oct 01 - 02:44 PM adding the chords is a good thing.*grin* |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: catspaw49 Date: 11 Oct 01 - 02:51 PM Hey now Linnie!!! Why I'll have you know there ain't nothin' out there except bottled water to compare with Pabst Blue Ribbon, especially since Wiedemann's went belly up. I mean the stuff is water with just a hint of hops and some fizz and nowadays it's cheaper than bottled water too. At least it doesn't have that soapy flavor that Budweiser adds to their brew! And what a ad jingle:
What'll you have? Okay, so it ain't as good as Carling's ditty was, but it was just about as creative:
Hey Mabel! But of course Carling's lent itself to far better rip-offs:
Hey Mabel! Ah yes, the world of bad beer and worse jingles! Hudepohl, Iron City, Fall City, P.O.C., Wiedemann's,......so many and some long gone. Gimmee a PBR to cry into....the salt will help it foam up a bit. Spaw |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Hollowfox Date: 11 Oct 01 - 03:05 PM 'Spaw, I can still get Iron City ("the beer drinker's beer") if you want some. Old Frothingslosh had the best ads, you must admit. "The beer so light, the foam's on the bottom" On the television ads they'd show an empy pilsner glass, a hand would come into view and start to pour in the usual mnner when suddenly the foam would come out of the bottle and thunk to the bottom of the glass...and this before computer generation. Now if somebody could get me some Duquesne ("you don't have a Doo-Kez-Nee? Then pour me a Duck!"), my day would be complete. |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: catspaw49 Date: 11 Oct 01 - 03:15 PM Yeah, they ain't all gone (and more's the pity).

Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Lin in Kansas Date: 11 Oct 01 - 04:03 PM LOL! 'Spaw, I can tell you've sampled quite a few of those "good ol' boy" beers! Frankly, if I didn't know for a fact where I grew up, I wouldn't believe I was a Texan--I really don't like the taste of any beer. Even Mogen David is preferable. Hell, even Ripple is preferable. (Mad Dog 20/20 may be debatable, though.) Anyhow, there's always Lone Star! (choke....gasp....retch....cough.....) Lin |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Steve in Idaho Date: 11 Oct 01 - 04:13 PM Well I am impressed - REAL folk music at last! Well its about folks and their neighborhood ramblings *G* Steve |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Donuel Date: 11 Oct 01 - 04:20 PM Then there was Gersredyck beer. People asked for a greasy dick From the land of blue waters... |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: GUEST,beadie Date: 11 Oct 01 - 04:32 PM I'm fromMilwaukee, and I oughta know It's draft brewed Blatz beer, wherever you go Smoother, and fresher, less filling, that's clear Blatz is Milwaukee's finest beer And, speaking of Ripple, I had a philosphy professor once who offered to treat the class to a wine and cheese party at the end of the semester. He said he was going to serve Ripple and Velveeta. The sad part was that none of the teenie boppers got the joke. |

Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: Armen Tanzerian Date: 11 Oct 01 - 11:03 PM Hey, Susan, where'd you get that name? It comes from "Overheard On a Saltmarsh" by HH Monro, does it not? It has always been one of my favorite poems. The poem actually came up once before on Mudcat, and I posted it for someone who was looking for it. Was that you? Just wondering, James (Armen Tanzerian) |
Subject: RE: Rednecks, White Socks From: rangeroger Date: 11 Oct 01 - 11:28 PM Guest, beadie, thanks for bringing up Blatz.If you hadn't I was going to. Great stuff! We used to look for the Liquor stores in San Bernardino with best deals. Usually 35 to 50 cents for a quart bottle. If it hit .75 we thought we were being ripped off. rr |
