Redneck Woman
Gretchen Wilson Lyrics

Well, I ain't never been the Barbie Doll type
I've never been the type to conform to societal norms of beauty and femininity.

No, I can't swig that sweet Champagne, I'd rather drink beer all night
I prefer a casual and laidback lifestyle over an extravagant or luxurious one.

In a tavern or in a honky-tonk, or on a four-wheel drive tailgate
I enjoy spending time in places that are unrefined or unconventional.

I've got posters on my wall of Skynyrd, Kid and Strait
I'm a fan of country music icons and appreciate their art.

Some people look down on me
There are individuals who perceive me as inferior or unsophisticated.

But I don't give a rip
However, I don't care about their opinions and will continue to live my life the way I want to.

I'll stand barefooted in my own front yard
I'm comfortable in my own skin and don't need to adhere to societal norms to feel happy.

With a baby on my hip
I'm a mother and proud of it.

'Cause I'm a redneck woman
I embrace my rural background and lifestyle.

I ain't no high class broad
I'm not someone who strives for sophistication or lavishness.

I'm just a product of my raisin'
I am a result of the way I was raised and the culture that surrounded me.

I say, "Hey y'all" and "Yee-haw"
I use country slang and express my enthusiasm for country music and lifestyle.

And I keep my Christmas lights on
I don't follow holiday decor norms but instead do what makes me happy.

On my front porch all year long
I use my home to showcase my personality and to express my pride in my lifestyle.

And I know all the words to every Charlie Daniels song
I love and appreciate country music and take pride in my knowledge of it.

So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
Here's to the people who embrace their rural or country lifestyles.

Let me get a big "Hell yeah" from the redneck girls like me
A call to other women who embrace their country roots and lifestyle.

Victoria's Secret, well, their stuff's real nice
I'm aware of popular brands and products, but I don't prioritize them in my life.

Oh, but I can buy the same damn thing on a Walmart shelf half-price
I don't see the point in spending excessive amounts of money on material goods when you can get the same thing for a lower price.

And still look sexy, just as sexy as those models on TV
I am confident in my own beauty and do not need to conform to societal beauty standards to feel attractive.

No, I don't need no designer tag to make my man want me
I don't need expensive or luxurious items to impress or attract others.

You might think I'm trashy
People may perceive me as low-class, vulgar or crude.

A little too hardcore
I'm not easily swayed, I am unwavering and set in my ways.

But in my neck of the woods
But in my community or hometown, my lifestyle is seen as normal and accepted.

I'm just the girl next door
I'm just a normal person who lives life the way they want to.

Hey, I'm a redneck woman
I'm proud of who I am and where I come from.

Let me get a big "Hell yeah" from the redneck girls like me
A call for camaraderie with other women like me who embrace their country lifestyle.

I said hell yeah
Affirmation of pride in my background and lifestyle.
