Jerry Reed
(I’m Just A) Redneck in a Rock and Roll Bar
Well, hello boogie palace
I'm sittin' here alone
Listening to the music
Of electric saxophone
Now they ain't no sexy dresses
And they ain't no beehive hair
Just boys who look like girls
Who look like boys who look like Cher
I'm just a redneck in a rock and roll bar
I miss the fiddle and a steel guitar
They're starin' at me like a bug in a jar
I'm just a redneck in a rock and roll bar
I stopped in here to have a beer
And ask some gal to dance
Well I been waiting patient
Now and I ain't had the chance
'Cause they ain't played any waltzes
Nothing like a Texas Swing
And with no belly rubbin' music
How in the hell can I do my thing
Well, goodbye Boogie Palace
I'm a-getting out of here
Back to country music
And back to Lone Star beer
Where the women look like women
And they dress so you can tell
And the men are good old boys
Just drinkin' beer and raisin hell
