Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
La la la la la la la la la

Choose from any number of magazines
Who do you want to be
Billy Idol or Kool Moe Dee

If you're afraid they might discover your redneck past
There are a hundred ways to cover your redneck past
They'll never send you home

Roots-the funny limbs that grow underground
That keep you from falling down
Don't you think that you'll need 'em now
Just find a place where no one knows of your redneck past

Yeah you can easily dispose of your redneck past
You'll show them all back home

Désolé, je suis Américain
Please cook my steak again
Je suis Américain
Désolé, je ne parle pas Français

Laws-they vary from state to state
Get you some books on tape
To learn about holes in space

If you're afraid they might uncover your redneck ass
There are a hundred ways to cover your redneck past

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
It's good to be back home
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh

 
 

back home
