They Call Me Redneck

They Call Me Redneck
Dr. James E. Martin
©October, 2013



They call me redneck because I'm a simple guy

It's perfectly okay but I wonder why.

Is it so wrong to not just go along?

Is this really so terribly wrong?



I do not support the modern crowd

This message I proclaim very loud!

Call me redneck if you must

If this is your idea of what is just.



We simple folk do not really care

That our lifestyles do not compare.

You are proud of yours beyond dispute

Don't expect that ours we'll ever refute!!
