>>5968456Last night I saw Lester Maddox on some TV show
With a smart ass New York Jew
And the Jew was laughing at Lester Maddox
And the audience was laughing at Lester Maddox too.
He may be a fool but he's our fool
If they think they're better than him, they're wrong
So I went to the park and took some paper along
And that's where I made this song
We talk real funny down here
We drink too much and we laugh too loud
We're too dumb to make it in no northern town
We're keeping the niggers down
We got no neck oilmen from Texas
Good Ol' Boys from Tennessee
College men from LSU
Went in dumb, came out dumb too
Hustling around Atlanta in their alligator shoes
Getting drunk on the weekends at the barbecue
They're keeping the niggers down
We're rednecks, we're rednecks
We don't know our ass from a hole in the ground
We're rednecks, we're rednecks
We're keeping the niggers down.
Now your northern nigger's a negro
Say he's got his dignity
We're too ignorant to realize
The north has set the nigger free
He's free to be put in a cage in Harlem in New York City
He's free to be put in a cage in the south side of Chicago and the west side
He's free to be put in a cage in the Hough in Cleveland
He's free to be put in a cage in East St. Louis
He's free to be put in a cage in Fillmore San Francisco
He's free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston
They're rounding them up from miles around
Keeping the niggers down
