AARON LEWIS
"Northern Redneck"
[Intro]
D C G D C G D
[Verse]
D
We grow tobacco and we drive trucks
G
We kill whitetails and green head ducks
A
And drive our four wheelers down the main road
C G
And bust out the sleds when it's cold
D
We got back roads an' four-wheel-drives
G
We got tailgates on a Friday night
A
And it's a half hour from my front door
C G A
To a Walmart or a grocery store
C G A
What you all don't understand
C G
It ain't all about a southern man
[Verse]
D
'Cause we got outlaws, we got hicks
G
We got honkytonks out in these sticks
A
We love our whiskey and we love our homegrown
C G
God damn it's so good to be home
D
We wear Carhart, we don't wear suits
G
We wear square toes and Chippewa boots
A
And we all know where we come from
C G A
And we'll be right here when it's done
C G
What y'all don't understand
C G
It ain't all about the southern man
[Chorus]
D
'Cause we got family livin' out in these woods
G
We got pride and a sense of what's good
A
And we all got dirt on our hands
C G
It's a song for the workin' man
D
Get up early and we work third shift
G
Pay our taxes and protect our kids
A
And we all got dirt on our hands
C G D
'Cause there's rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon
C G D C G D
There's rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon
[Verse]
D
'Cause I'm from the North son, you're from the South
G
Straight out the trailer, fresh off the plow
A
You got your Chevy parked next to my Ford
C G
And the colors flyin' high at your door
D
I got a shotgun, fill it with shells
G
You got a Bible but I'll see you in hell
A
We ain't that different son, you and me
C G A
Tryin' to make it in the land of the free
C G
What y'all don't understand
C G
It ain't all about a southern man
[Chorus]
D
'Cause we got family livin' out in these woods
G
We got pride and a sense of what's good
A
And we all got dirt on our hands
C G
It's a song for the workin' man
D
Get up early and we work third shift
G
Pay our taxes and protect our kids
A
And we all got dirt on our hands
C G D
'Cause there's rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon
C G D C G D
I'm a redneck north of the Mason-Dixon
