(Verse 1) She never liked the way that Alabama clay Would cling when it stuck to her bare feet One more heavy burden, tellin' her for certain She's in Redneck, Alabama on a dead end street (Verse 2) Raised up like an outcast heard 'em whisper white trash But words alone she knows don't make it so Mem'ries will remind her they could have all been kinder But in Redneck, Alabama that's the way it goes (Chorus) In Redneck, Alabama There's no sweet home memories When you're sixteen and pretty All you know is you gotta leave And there's a man in a Cadillac With a hundred dollar bill Out of Redneck, Alabama The roads all run uphill (Bridge) She tucks that hundred dollar bill into her dimestore purse Leaves yesterday behind and prays tomorrow won't be worse
