Redneck, Unread Hicks Songtext
von Adeem the Artist

Everybody gather ′round, we got another one here
It's got the pronouns listed, it′s a genuine queer
Singing, "Black lives matter," to a Jimmie Rodgers melody, y'all
Well, these rednecks and unread hicks ain't the same ′round here anymore


Got the lotus sutra loaded, shoot you straight in the ear
I′m liable, talking Bible with Rumi in a field
Get out the red book hymnal, scream, shout, and dance all night
Well, us rednecks and unread hicks were screaming, "Free Palestine"

Well, I've been breaking my back and, no, that′s not what I mean
The sanctity of marriage ain't a black and white thing
I reckon my love′s more sacred than Donald Trump's third go around
Well, these rednecks and unread hicks in a backyard with two wedding gowns

There′s a trans femme trans am mandolin riff
A firebird, registered socialist
But she'll still out drink you on a Tennessee Saturday night from an old fruit jar
Yeah, these rednecks and unread hicks organizing in the trailer park
