For Some Ol' Redneck Reason (feat. Charlie Daniels)
I love tearing down some country road as the red sun's sinking down
With nothing but corn and cotton fields for miles and miles around
With every twist and turn there's another million dollar view
Some folks might not see it but for some ol' redneck reason I do
I still wear my beat up boots and my ol' worn out jeans
I still say the blessin' when I sit down to eat
You can bet I mind my manners every time my Mama walks in the room
Some folks don't think that matters but for some ol' redneck reason I do
For some ol' redneck reason
Sometimes I get the feelin'
Maybe I give too much of a damn
I'm a little ol' fashioned leanin'
Out of style and out of season
But I reckon that's just the way I am
Sometimes I lay here thinkin' 'bout the good times that we had
Wonder why it all went wrong the night it all went bad
And I probably shouldn't call you up thinking I can patch things up with you
Oh but when I get to drinking for some ol' redneck reason I do
Oh how you feel about it Charlie?
I was standing beside a couple teenage kids at a high school football game
They didn't take their hats off when the anthem was played
And I felt like jerking a knot in their tails for disrespecting that ol' red white and blue
Well now maybe I shouldn't get fightin' mad but for some ol' redneck reason I do
