REDNECK
WRITER JOE SOUTH
Well hello, Boogie Palace I'm sittin' here alone Listening to the music Of electric saxophones Now, there ain't no sexy dresses And there ain't no beehive hair Just boys who look like girls Who look like boys, who look like Cher I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar I miss the fiddle And a steel guitar They're starin' at me Like a bug in a jar I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar I stopped in here to have a beer To ask some gal to dance But, I been waitin' patient now And I ain't had the chance 'Cause they ain't played any walzes Nothing like a Texas swing And with no belly rubbin' music How in the hell can I do my thing?
I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar I miss the fiddle And a steel guitar They're starin' at me Like a bug in a jar I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar Well goodbye, Boogie Palace I'm a gettin' outta here Back to Country music And back to Lone Star beer Where the women look like women And they dress so you can tell And the men are good ol' boys Just drinkin' beer and raisin' hell I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar I miss the fiddle And a steel guitar They're starin' at me Like a bug in a jar I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar [Fade to End] I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar I miss the fiddle And a steel guitar They're starin' at me Like a bug in a jar I'm just a redneck In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
