Red off My Neck

You can get Billy off the hill

But you can't get the hill out of Billy

You can get Willie out Texas

But you can't get the Texas out of Willie

A cowboy's gonna be a cowboy even if there ain't no horse to ride

A country boy's gonna be a country boy even if he crosses that county line

I can get the mud off my truck

I can get the dirt off my hands

I can get the pretty little country girl off my arm

And the pop top off this can

I can get the Bocephus right off of these speakers

And the trucker hat off my head

But I can't get the red off my neck

I wear it under underneath my collar

Like a bow tie on a Chevy

It's redder than the clay in the ground and the devil drinkin' "Old Bud Heavy"

A honky tonk's gonna be a honky tonk even if a neon light burns out

A good ol' boy's gonna good ol' boy till they put him in some good ol' ground

I can get the mud off my truck

I can get the dirt off my hands

I can get the pretty little country girl off my arm

And the pop top off this can

I can get the Bocephus right off of these speakers

And the trucker hat off my head

But I can't get the red off my neck

Yeah, I've tried, but I can't

Hell, I think it's too late

I can get the mud off my truck

I can get the dirt off my hands

I can get the pretty little country girl off my arm

And the pop top off this can

I can get the Bocephus right off of these speakers

And the trucker hat off my head

But I can't get the red-

No, I can't get the red-

No, I can't get the red off my neck

Yeah
