God Loves All His Rednecks
Dry County Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Moonshine, gun racks, God fearing folks, Johnny Cash
Way off base, but down here's right on track
Lifes race dead last, a nascar sticker on a Cadillac
Takin' 'er slow in a life goes too fast
Well I may not never be upper class society
But I've met God and he told me to say
I've lied and I've messed up, done my fair share of you know what
But I don't try denying mistakes I've made
'Cause I may have a truckers mouth, and I drink til I pass right out
But I'll be heaven bound when it's my day
'Cause God loves all his rednecks just the same
Just the same
A long week of all sin
Sunday church live it up again with a six pack smile of mine that's getting all the blame
One kiss good night shows the one true love of my life on a front porch swing on an August summer night
How I ever made her mine with just smile and homemade wine but thanks goes up to the heavens every day
Chorus
Oh he loves us just the same

Well I may fly with broken wings but that part don't bother me cause my buddies are here with a box of beer and we'll fix anything
Chorus X2
Well I might be third but it's all class and I got friends to watch my ass




I wouldn't change a thing about the way I've made
'Cause God loves all His rednecks just the same X2 he loves us just the same yeah God loves all his rednecks just the same

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dry County's song "God Loves All His Rednecks" depicts the life of "God-fearing folks" who are often stereotyped for their rural lifestyles, moonshine, gun racks and country music. The song depicts the life of these people who do not conform to the standards of upper class society, but take pride in their conservative lifestyles. The lyrics suggest that these people may be seen as being out of step with mainstream society, but they are actually right on track with themselves and the values that they hold dear. The song features lyrics such as "Takin' 'er slow in a life goes too fast" and "But I'll be heaven bound when it's my day" that speak to the laid back, yet faithful, approach to life embodied by these rednecks.


The lyrics also acknowledge the individual flaws of the singer, including a tendency toward drinking and cursing. However, the singer remains unapologetic for his mistakes and confident in his faith that redemption lies waiting for him in the afterlife. The chorus "Cause God loves all his rednecks just the same" reinforces the message that everyone, regardless of their station in life, is deserving of God's love and forgiveness.
