Lyrics Up Against the Wall Redneck Mother - Jerry Jeff Walker

Up Against the Wall Redneck Mother

He was born in Oklahoma
And his wife’s name is Betty Lou Thelma Liz
And he’s not responsible for what he’s doing
'Cause his mother made him what he is
And it’s up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother, who has raised her son so well
He’s thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk
Just kicking hippies' asses and raising hell
Sure does like his Falstaff beer
He likes to chase it down with that Wild Turkey liquor
He drives a '57 G-M-C pickup truck
He’s got a gun rack, «Goat ropers need love, too» sticker
And it’s up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother, who has raised her son so well
He’s thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk
Just kicking hippies' asses and raising hell
M is for the mudflaps you give me for my pickup truck
O is for the oil I put on my hair
T is for T-bird
H is for Haggard
E is for eggs
And R is for red neck
Up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother, who has raised her son so well
He’s thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk
Kicking hippies' asses and raising hell
Yeah it’s up against the wall, Redneck Mother
Mother, who has raised her son so well
He’s thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk
Just kicking hippies' asses and raising hell
What’s that smell?
