(Chorus)
|
What this world needs is a few more rednecks
|
Some people ain¡¯t afraid to take a stand
|
What this world needs is a little more respect
|
For the Lord and the law and the workin¡¯ man
|
We could use a little peace and satisfaction
|
Some good people up front to take the lead
|
A little less talk and a little more action
|
And a few more rednecks is what we need
|
|
I was raised on beans and cornbread
|
And I like my chicken fried
|
Yes, I drive a pickup truck
|
And I¡¯m full of American pride
|
I keep a Bible on my table
|
I got a flag out on my lawn
|
And I don¡¯t believe in mindin¡¯
|
No one¡¯s business but my own
|
|
And I love them Rambo movies
|
I think they make a lot of sense
|
And it¡¯s a shame ole John Wayne
|
Didn¡¯t live to run for president
|
|
[And I'm a catfish connoisseur
|
And I love the Lynyrd Skynyrd band
|
And I'm crazy about the NFL
|
And I'm a diehard NASCAR Fan]
|
|
|
And I don¡¯t care what nobody says
|
I don¡¯t trust ole Gorbachev
|
And I don¡¯t know who turned him on
|
But it¡¯s time to turn him off
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Now they¡¯re tryin¡¯ to take my guns away
|
And that would be just fine
|
If you take ¡®em away from the criminals first
|
I¡¯ll gladly give ya mine
|
And I don¡¯t mind payin¡¯ taxes
|
But it makes my temper itch
|
When my hard earned money goes
|
To make some politician rich
|
|
What most people call a redneck
|
Ain¡¯t nothin¡¯ but a workin¡¯ man
|
And he makes his livin¡¯
|
By the sweat of his brow
|
And the calluses on his hands
|
Now you intellectuals may not like it
|
But there ain¡¯t nothin¡¯ that you can do
|
Cause there¡¯s a whole lot more of us common-folks
|
Then there ever will be of you
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
That¡¯s what we need
|
And a few more rednecks is what we need
|
