Jerry Jeff Walker Up Against the Wall, Redneck (Live, Dallas, TX) lyrics

He was born in Oklahoma
His wife's name's Betty Lou Thelma Liz
He's not responsible for what he's doin'
'Cause his mother made him what he is

And it's up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother who has raised her son so well
He's thirty-four and drinkin' in a honky tonk
Just kickin' hippies asses and raisin' hell

Sure does like his Falstaff beer
He likes to chase it down with that Wild Turkey liquor
He drives a fifty-seven GMC pickup truck
He's got a gun rack, goat roper needs love to sticker

And it's up against the wall Redneck Mother
Mother who has raised her son so well
He's thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk
Just kickin' hippies asses and raisin' hell


M is for the mud flaps you give me for my pickup truck
O is for the oil I put on my hair
T is for T-bird
H is for haggard
E is for eggs, and
R is for Redneck

Up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother who has raised her son so well
He's thirty-four and drinkin' in a honky tonk
Kickin' hippies asses and raisin' hell

He's up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother who has raised her son so well
He's thirty-four and drinkin' in a honky tonk
Just kickin' hippies asses and raisin' hell
