Happy Birthday to one of my favorites ! Randy Newman the king of lyrical cynicism ! Enjoy this one and Pleeeeze dont get all offended ! LOL.. Lyrics for Rednecks By Randy Newman Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show With some smart ass New York Jew And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox And the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too Well he may be a fool but hes our fool If they think theyre better than him theyre wrong So I went to the park and I took some paper along And thats where I made this song We talk real funny down here We drink too much and we laugh too loud Were too dumb to make it in no Northern town And were keepin the niggers down We got no-necked oilmen from Texas And good ol boys from Tennessee And colleges men from LSU Went in dumb. Come out dumb too Hustlin round Atlanta in their alligator shoes Gettin drunk every weekend at the barbecues And theyre keepin the niggers down Were rednecks, rednecks And we dont know our ass from a hole in the ground Were rednecks, were rednecks And were keeping the niggers down Now your northern niggers a Negro You see hes got his dignity Down here were too ignorant to realize That the North has set the nigger free Yes hes free to be put in a cage In Harlem in New York City And hes free to be put in a cage on the South-Side of Chicago And the West-Side And hes free to be put in a cage in Hough in Cleveland And hes free to be put in a cage in East St. Louis And hes free to be put in a cage in Fillmore in San Francisco And hes free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston Theyre gatherin em up from miles around Keepin the niggers down Were rednecks, rednecks And we dont know our ass from a hole in the ground Were rednecks, were rednecks And were keeping the niggers down
