Waylon Jennings Parody

I wrote this parody lyric back in 2006 and sadly,

it's gotten way more out of hand since then...

Don’t You Think This Redneck Bit Has Done Got Out of Hand

(Parody of Waylon’s “Don’t You Think This Outlaw Bit has Done Got Out of Hand”)

Verse 1:

I'm for peas and cornbread, and down home honesty

But this song's about the joke some folks have pulled on you and me

Soon as that gal redneck went up to number one

Folks re-found the drawl they’d lost - yeehaw, ain’t this some fun?

Chorus:

Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand

What started out as getting real has turned into a scam

Now everybody’s dipping Skoal and sportin’ farmer’s tans

Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand

Verse 3:

They were singin’ sweet pop music till ol’ Gretchen came along

Then overnight, big pickup trucks and sweet tea filled their songs

Hillbillies, hicks and white trash started skankin’ up the charts

They’re tradin’ in Versace fashion for blue jeans from Walmart

Chorus

Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand

What started out as getting real has turned into a scam

Now everybody’s swiggin’ beer, sayin’ hell yeah and by damn

Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand
