Seven hundred thousand rednecks
That’s what it takes to get to the top
Seven hundred thousand rednecks
No, there ain’t no one gonna make me stop
Well, I travel around from town to town
I do the best I can everyday
I drive long hours and I don’t get to shower and I ain’t gonna brag about the pay
No, I ain’t gonna brag about the pay
Seven hundred thousand rednecks
That’s what it takes to get to the top
Seven hundred thousand rednecks
No, there ain’t no one gonna make me stop
I get tired of working my fingers to the bone
I get tired of working every day
But the people they tell me that they wanna hear my songs
They tell me they wanna see me play
Now tell me do you wanna see him play
Seven hundred thousand rednecks
That’s what it takes to get to the top
Seven hundred thousand rednecks
No, there ain’t no one gonna make me stop
There ain’t no one gonna make me stop
Oh yippee ki yay
I’m going all the way, I’m going all the way
I’m going all the way, I’m going all the way
I’m going all the way
Oh yippee ki yay
