Most of the time I'm fairly civilized
Try to hide my low class backward ways
We both know I wear a thin disguise
You've seen my true colors shine as bright as day

O yea when you bring out the redneck in me
Oh yea you know just how crazy I can be
I'll cuss, and I'll fight, and I'll drink all night,
Till I lose my dignity
O when you bring out the redneck in me

Traded in my pickup truck for an suv
Bought some khaki pants and burned all my blue jeans
I've tried to join middle class society
I gotta white collar job and a college degree

Still you bring out the redneck in me
O yea you know just how crazy I can be
I'll cuss, and I'll fight, and I'll drink all night,
Till I lose my dignity

My southern accent ain't so hard to hide
I can talk like a yankee when the timing is right
I seldom speak 'bout my rebel pride
Unless I'm down in Athens raisin' hell on a friday night

O yea and that's when you bring out the redneck in me
Oh yea you know just how crazy I can be
I'll cuss, and I'll fight, and I'll drink all night,
Till I lose my dignity, lord lord
When you bring out the redneck in me

O yea when you bring out the redneck in me.
