letra de rednecks (2003) - randy newman

[intro]
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 he’s our fool
and if they think they’re better than him, they’re wrong
so i went to the park and i took some paper along
and that’s where i made this song

[verse 1]
we talk real funny down here
we drink too much and we laugh too loud
we’re too dumb to make it in no northern town
we’re keepin’ the n-ggers down

[verse 2]
we got no-necked oilmen from texas
good ol’ boys from tennessee
college men from lsu
went in dumb, come out dumb too
hustlin’ ’round atlanta in their alligator shoes
gettin’ drunk every weekend at the barbecue
and they’re keepin’ the n-ggers down

[chorus]
we’re rednecks, rednecks
we don’t know our ass from a hole in the ground
we’re rednecks, we’re rednecks
we’re keepin’ the n-ggers down
[verse 3]
now, your northern n-gga’s a negro
you see, he’s got his dignity
down here, we’re too ignorant to realize
that the north has set the n-gga free

[verse 4]
yes, he’s free to be put in a cage in harlem in new york city
and he’s free to be put in a cage on the south side of chicago
and the west side
and he’s free to be put in a cage in hough in cleveland
and he’s free to be put in a cage in east st. louis
and he’s free to be put in a cage in fillmore in san francisco
and he’s free to be put in a cage in roxbury in boston
gatherin’ ’em up from miles around
keepin’ the n-ggers down

[chorus]
we’re rednecks, we’re rednecks
we don’t know our ass from a hole in the ground
we’re rednecks, we’re rednecks
we’re keepin’ the n-ggers down
we are keepin’ the n-ggers down
