Karaoké Redneck Life Chris Janson

I grew up in a batten board cabin at the dead end of a gravel street

I got my first payin' job when I turned ten 'cos money didn't grow on trees

Cheap cigarettes with the windows up was just part of the air I breathed

I didn't choose the redneck life the redneck life chose me

I love that boys

Yeah me and my daddy built my first car strung a motor up in a tree

We wore the beer box helmets with the eyes cut out rat racing them junkyard jeeps

Yeah me and my crew man we grew up on Hank Junior eighty-three

I didn't choose the redneck life no the redneck life chose me

Yeah

I didn't choose the redneck life the redneck life chose me

What you see is what you get and what you get is what you see

I'll take a Mountain Dew over a silver spoon any ole day of the week

I didn't choose the redneck life the redneck life chose me oh get up son

And I grew up swimming in cut-off jeans down at the bridge at the castor creek

We'd bend our hat bills as far as we could bend them

We spent the fall sittin' high in a tree

Yeah huntin' and fishin' wasn't just a trend it was what we did to eat

I didn't choose the redneck life the redneck life chose me

Yeah

I didn't choose the redneck life the redneck life chose me

What you see is what you get and what you get is what you see

I'll take a Mountain Dew over a silver spoon any ole day of the week

I didn't choose the redneck life the redneck life chose me

Oh
