[00:00.00]Chris Janson - Redneck Life
[00:07.21]I grew up in a batten board cabin
[00:09.29]At the dead end of a gravel street
[00:12.13]I got my first payin' job when I turned 10
[00:14.94]Cause money didn't grow on trees
[00:18.25]Cheap cigarettes with the windows up
[00:20.34]Was just part of the air I breathed
[00:23.75]I didn't choose the redneck life
[00:26.18]The redneck life chose me
[00:30.54]Yeah me and my daddy built my first car
[00:33.38]It's called the motor up in a tree
[00:36.17]We were the beer bartenders with the ice cutout
[00:38.66]Rat racing them junkyard dreams
[00:41.94]Yeah, me and my crew, man, we grew up
[00:44.69]On high-tune U83
[00:47.81]I didn't choose the redneck life
[00:50.54]No, the redneck life chose me
[00:54.86]I didn't choose the redneck life
[00:57.45]The redneck life chose me
[01:00.57]What you see is what you get
[01:02.95]And what you get is what you see
[01:05.88]I'll take a Mountain Dew over a silver spoon
[01:08.63]Any ole day of the week
[01:11.87]I didn't choose the redneck life
[01:14.41]The redneck life chose me
[01:44.24]And I grew up swimming in cut-off jeans
[01:46.84]Down at the bridge at the castor creek
[01:49.58]We'd bend our half bills as far as we could bend them
[01:52.46]We spent the fall sittin' high in a tree
[01:55.46]Yeah, huntin' and fishin' wasn't just a trend
[01:58.04]It was what we did to eat
[02:00.93]I didn't choose the redneck life
[02:03.57]The redneck life chose me
[02:07.38]Yeah, I didn't choose the redneck life
[02:10.75]The redneck life chose me
[02:14.00]What you see is what you get
[02:16.38]And what you get is what you see
[02:19.27]I'll take a Mountain Dew over a silver spoon
[02:22.00]Any ole day of the week
