song:  redneck mother
by:  jerry jeff walker


       G               C          
He was born in OKLAHOMA,
    D                              G
His wife's name's ole Betty Lou Thelma Liz

G                                      C
And he's not responsible for what he's doing

           D                       G
'Cause his mother made him what he is.



G                           C           
Up against the wall Redneck Mother,

D                                 G
Mother, who has raised her son so well.

G                                   C                
He's thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk.

     D                                 G
Just kicking hippies asses and raising 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

(Chorus)

Well, 
M is for the 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.

(Chorus)
