I love tearin' down some country road
As the red sun's sinking down
Nothing but corn and cotton fields
For miles and miles around
With every twist and turn
There's another million dollar view
Some folks might not see it
But for some old redneck reason I do

I still wear my beat-up boots and my old worn-out jeans
I still say the blessing when I sit down to eat
And you can bet I mind my manners
Every time my mama walks in the room
Some folks don't think that matters
But for some old redneck reason I do

For some old redneck reason, sometimes I get the feelin'
Maybe I give too much of a damn
I'm a little old fashion leanin'
Out of style and out of season
But I reckon that's just the way I am

Sometimes I lay here thinkin'
'bout the good times that we had
Wonder why it all went wrong or the night it all went bad
And I probably shouldn't call you up
Thinkin' I can patch things up with you
Oh, but when I get to drinking
For some old redneck reason I do

For some old redneck reason, sometimes I get the feelin'
Maybe I give too much of a damn
I'm a little old fashion leanin'
Out of style and out of season
But I reckon that's just the way I am

Oh, how do you feel about it charlie?

I was standing behind a couple teenage kids
At a high school football game
They didn't take their hats off
When the national anthem played
And I felt like jerkin a knot in their tail
For disrespecting that old red, white and blue
Well, maybe I shouldn't get fightin' mad
But for some old redneck reason I do
