Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We grow tobacco and we drive trucks
We kill white tails and green head ducks
And drive our four wheelers down the main road
And bust out the sleds when it's cold
[Verse 2]
We got back roads and four wheel drives
We got tailgates on a Friday night
And it's a half hour from my front door
To a Walmart or a grocery store
[Verse 3]
What y'all don't understand
It ain't all about a southern man
[Verse 4]
'Cause we got outlaws, we got hicks
We got honkeytonks out in these sticks
We love our whiskey and we love our homegrown
God damn it's so good to be home
[Verse 5]
We wear Carhart we don't wear suits
We wear square toes and Chippewa boots
And we all know where we come from
And we'll be right here when it's done
[Verse 6]
What y'all don't understand
It ain't all about a southern man
[Verse 7]
Cause we got family livin' out in these woods
We got pride and a sense of what's good
And we all got dirt on our hands
It's a song for the workin' man
[Verse 8]
Get up early and we work third shift
Pay our taxes and protect our kids
And we all got dirt on our hands
'Cause there's rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon
There's rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon, yeah
[Verse 9]
Mm, what you know about that
[Verse 10]
Cause I'm from the north son you're from the south
Straight out the trailer, fresh off the plow
You got your Chevy parked next to my Ford
And the colors flying high at your door
[Verse 11]
I got a shotgun fill it with shells
You got a bible but I'll see you in hell
We ain't that different son, you and me
Tryin' to make it in the land of the free
[Verse 12]
What y'all don't understand
It ain't all about a southern man
[Verse 13]
Cause we got family livin' out in these woods
We got pride and a sense of what's good
And we all got dirt on our hands
It's a song for the workin' man
[Verse 14]
Get up early and we work third shift
Pay our taxes and protect our kids
And we all got dirt on our hands
'Cause there's rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon
I'm a redneck north of the Mason-Dixon, yeah
