Song (What This World Needs Is) A Few More Rednecks
Artist The Charlie Daniels Band
Album The Roots Remain

Lyrics

What this world needs is a few more rednecks
Some people ain't afraid to take a stand
What this world needs is a little more respect
For the Lord and the law and the workin' man
We could use a little peace and satisfaction
Some good people up front to take the lead
A little less talk and a little more action
And a few more rednecks is what we need
I was raised on beans and cornbread
And I like my chicken fried
Yes, I drive a pickup truck
And I'm full of
American pride
I keep a Bible on my table
I got a flag out on my lawn
And I don't believe in mindin'
No one's business but my own
And I love them
Rambo movies
I think they make a lot of sense
And it's a shame ole
John Wayne
Didn't live to run for president
And I don't care what nobody says
I don't trust ole
Gorbachev
And I don't know who turned him on
But it's time to turn him off [Chorus]
Now they're tryin' to take my guns away
And that would be just fine
If you take ‘em away from the criminals first
I'll gladly give ya mine
And I don't mind payin' taxes
But it makes my temper itch
When my hard earned money goes
To make some politician rich
What most people call a redneck
Ain't nothin' but a workin' man
And he makes his livin'
By the sweat of his brow
And the calluses on his hands
Now you intellectuals may not like it
But there ain't nothin' that you can do
Cause there's a whole lot more of us common-folks
Then there ever will be of you [Chorus]
That's what we need
And a few more rednecks is what we need
