Farr’s platinum-selling title-track “Redneck Crazy” projected Farr forward to celebrate back-to-back #1 singles, including his first #1 as a songwriter, with his platinum-certified hit “Whiskey in my Water.” His sophomore album, Suffer In Peace, followed suit, also making its debut in the Top 5 on both the Billboard Top 200 Albums and Billboard Country Albums Charts, leading Farr to become the only solo male country artist in the past decade to have their first two studio albums debut in the Top 5 on the Billboard 200 Chart.
Known for his love for our military and his passion for the outdoors and recognized as a 2014 CRS New Faces of Country Radio and 2014 Music Row “Breakthrough Artist of the Year” nominee, the opera-trained singer quickly earned coveted slots touring with Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line, Luke Combs, Brantley Gilbert and Lee Brice. The Missouri native’s dry wit, silly antics and reputation as “a no-frills musician who pours his drinks as hard as he pours his heart into his songs,” (Rolling Stone), led to the star’s riotous social following of fans eager for his next move.
After releasing “true-blue country jam” (Country Swag) “Country As Shit,” featuring multi-genre phenomenon Jelly Roll that Taste of Country declared “a summer-ready ode to windows-down, mud-crusted, beer-soaked fun in the country,” Farr is heading back to his rough and rowdy ways with his latest Aldean-produced Rednecks Like Me EP.

Park this Silverado on your front lawn
Crank up a little Hank, sit on the hood and drink
I'm about to get my pissed off on
I'm gonna aim my headlights into your bedroom windows
Throw empty beer cans at both of your shadows
I didn't come here to start a fight, but I'm up for anything tonight
Wish I knew how long it's been going on
How long you've been getting some on the side
Nah, he can't amount to much, by the look of that little truck
Well he wont be getting any sleep tonight
I'm gonna aim my headlights into your bedroom windows
Throw empty beer cans at both of your shadows
I didn't come here to start a fight, but I'm up for anything tonight
You know you broke the wrong heart baby, and drove me redneck crazy
Redneck crazy
Did you think I'd wish you both the best, endless love and happiness
You know that's just not, the kind of man I am
I'm the kind that shows up at your house at 3 AM
I'm gonna aim my headlights into your bedroom windows
Throw empty beer cans at both of your shadows
I didn't come here to start a fight, but I'm up for anything tonight
You gone and broke the wrong heart baby, and drove me redneck crazy
You drove me redneck crazy, oh yeah yeah
The song "Redneck Crazy" by Tyler Farr is about a man who has been wronged by his significant other and he's seeking revenge. He plans to drive his truck through her neighborhood, park on her front lawn, and drink beer while listening to Hank Williams Jr. He plans to throw empty beer cans at her window and her boyfriend's shadow, because they have been cheating on him. He didn't come to start a fight, but he's up for anything tonight because he's been driven "redneck crazy" by her betrayal. He's not the kind of man who wishes his ex-partner and her new boyfriend happiness, he's the kind of man who shows up at their house at 3 AM to seek revenge.
The lyrics, while seemingly glorifying reckless behavior, are a representation of the emotions someone can feel after being wronged in a relationship. Tyler Farr does not condone or encourage this kind of behavior, but rather reflects on the feelings of anger and hurt that can arise from betrayal.

Gonna drive like hell through your neighborhood
I'm going to speed and drive recklessly through your area
Park this Silverado on your front lawn
I'm going to park my large truck on your lawn
Crank up a little Hank, sit on the hood and drink
I'll listen to Hank Williams Jr., sit on the hood of my truck and drink
I'm about to get my pissed off on
I'm about to get angry and do something about it
Wish I knew how long it's been going on
I wish I knew how long you've been cheating on me
How long you've been getting some on the side
How long have you been cheating on me with someone else
Nah, he can't amount to much, by the look of that little truck
I don't think your new partner is worth much, based on the small truck he drives
Well he won't be getting any sleep tonight
He won't be getting any rest since I plan on disturbing him
Did you think I'd wish you both the best, endless love and happiness
Did you really believe I would be happy for you and your new lover
You know that's just not, the kind of man I am
I'm not the kind of man to just let things go and move on
I'm the kind that shows up at your house at 3 AM
I'm the type of person who shows up unexpectedly and causes trouble
You gone and broke the wrong heart baby, and drove me redneck crazy
You broke my heart and now I'm furious
Redneck crazy
I'm so mad and upset that I'm acting irrationally and behaving like a stereotypical redneck

Went to a Jason Aldean concert and Tyler was opening. After he did this song he said ," We need to appreciate all our veterans. All you veterans stand up" "Look around, tell these guy's thank you and buy them what ever they are drinking" I stood and was just about the only person standing in my section. Next thing I knew people were coming by bringing me a beer, this went on all through the concert. My wife had to drive us home that night. Thanks Tyler. It feels great when a famous artist recognizes people that served. It wasn't the beer that brought me to tears it was you .
