Rednecks (乡下人) - Randy Newman (兰迪·纽曼)[00:00:00]
Written by:Randy Newman/Randy Newma[00:00:00]
Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show[00:00:00]
With some smart a** New York Jew[00:00:05]
And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox[00:00:10]
And the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too[00:00:13]
Well he may be a fool but he's our fool[00:00:18]
If they think they're better than him they're wrong[00:00:22]
So I went to the park and I took some paper along[00:00:27]
And that's where I made this song[00:00:31]
We talk real funny down here[00:00:39]
We drink too much and we laugh too loud[00:00:43]
We're too dumb to make it in no northern town[00:00:47]
And we're keepin' the niggers down[00:00:51]
We got no necked oilmen from Texas[00:00:54]
And good ol' boys from Tennessee[00:00:59]
And colleges men from LSU[00:01:03]
Went in dumb come out dumb too[00:01:07]
Hustlin' 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes[00:01:11]
Gettin' drunk every weekend at the barbecues[00:01:14]
And they're keepin' the niggers down[00:01:18]
We're rednecks rednecks[00:01:22]
And we don't know our a**[00:01:26]
From a hole in the ground[00:01:28]
We're rednecks we're rednecks[00:01:30]
And we're keeping the niggers down[00:01:34]
Now your northern ni**a's a Negro[00:01:55]
You see he's got his dignity[00:01:59]
Down here we're too ignorant to realize[00:02:02]
That the north has set the ni**a free[00:02:06]
Yes he's free to be put in a cage[00:02:10]
In Harlem in New York city[00:02:12]
And he's free to be put in a cage[00:02:14]
On the south side of Chicago[00:02:16]
And the west side[00:02:17]
And he's free to be put in a cage[00:02:19]
In Hough in Cleveland[00:02:20]
And he's free to be put in a cage[00:02:22]
In East St Louis[00:02:24]
And he's free to be put in a cage[00:02:25]
In Fillmore in San Francisco[00:02:27]
And he's free to be put in a cage[00:02:29]
In Roxbury in Boston[00:02:31]
They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around[00:02:33]
Keepin' the niggers down[00:02:37]
We're rednecks rednecks[00:02:40]
And we don't know our a** from a hole in the ground[00:02:44]
We're rednecks we're rednecks[00:02:48]
And we're keeping the niggers down[00:02:52]
And we're keeping the niggers down[00:02:56]
