(What This World Needs Is) A Few More Rednecks

What this world needs is a few more rednecks

Some people ain't afraid to take a stand

What this world needs is a little more respect

For the Lord, and the law, and the working man

We could use a little peace and satisfaction

Some good people up front to take the lead

A little less talk and a little more action

And a few more rednecks is what we need

I was raised on beans and cornbread

And I like my chicken fried

Yes, I drive a pick-up truck

And I'm full of American pride

I keep a Bible on my table

I got a flag out on my lawn

And I don't believe in minding

No one's business but my own

And I love them Rambo movies

I think they make a lot of sense

And it's a shame old John Wayne

Didn't live to run for president

And I don't care what nobody says

I don't trust old Gorbachev

And I don't know who turned him on

But it's time to turn him off

What this world needs is a few more rednecks

Some people ain't afraid to take a stand

What this world needs is a little more respect

For the Lord, and the law, and the working man

We could use a little peace and satisfaction

Some good people up front to take the lead

A little less talk and a little more action

And a few more rednecks is what we need

Now they're trying to take my guns away

And that would be just fine

If you take them away from the criminals first

I'll gladly give you mine

And I don't mind paying taxes

But it makes my temper itch

When my hard earned money goes

To make some politician rich

What most people call a redneck

Ain't nothing but a working man

And he makes his living

By the sweat of his brow

And the calluses on his hands

Now you intellectuals may not like it

But there ain't nothing that you can do

'Cause there's a whole lot more of us common-folks
