[Chorus]
C F
What this world needs is a few more rednecks
C
Some people ain't afraid to take a stand
G
What this world needs is a little more respect
C
For the Lord and the law and the workin' man
F
We could use a little peace and satisfaction
C
Some good people up front to take the lead
G
A little less talk and a little more action
C F G C
And a few more rednecks is what we need
[Verse]
C
I's raised on beans and cornbread
D
And I like my chicken fried
C
Yes, I drive a pickup truck
D
And I'm full of American pride
C
I keep a Bible on my table
D
I got a flag out on my lawn
C
And I don't believe in mindin'
G
No one's business but my own
C
And I love them Rambo movies
D
I think they make a lot of sense
C
And it's a shame ol' John Wayne
D
Didn't live to run for president
C
And I don't care what nobody says
D
I don't trust ole Gorbachev
C
And I don't know who turned him on
G C
But it's time to turn him off
[Chorus]
C F

[Verse]
C
Now they’re tryin’ to take my guns away
D
And that would be just fine
C
If you take ‘em away from the criminals first
D
I’d gladly give you mine
C
And I don’t mine payin’ taxes
D
But it makes my temper itch
C
When my hard earned money goes
D C
To make some politician rich
C
What most people call a Redneck
D
Ain’t nothin’ but a workin’ man
C
And he makes his livin’ by the sweat of his brow
D
And the calluses on his hands
C
Now you intellectuals may not like it
D
But there ain’t nothin’ you can do
C
Cause there’s a whole lot more of us common folks
G C
Than they’re ever will be of you.

That’s what we need

And A Few More Rednecks is what we need.
