Redneck Culture

Redneck Culture

A Poem by T. L. O'Neal

Redneck Culture

Written by: T.L. O’Neal

 

Whether they come from

The North or from the South

Rednecks abound everywhere

You can tell by their dirty mouths

 

Cussing, chewing and spitting

To beat the ever-loving band

While carrying a cold beer

In a more than dirty hand

 

Loud and abrasive

In the language that they use

Not much on manners

Or the clothes that they choose

 

Ignorance is their way

Too dumb to learn anything new

They thump on their Bible

While taking a big chew

 

With anyone different

They’re as bigoted as hell

Don’t get along with anyone

Unless they all smell

 

Living on booze, cheese,

And pork skins too

Watching Jerry Springer

Finding someone to sue

 

In their front yard

Old Ford up on blocks

Dirty ball cap sideways

Thinking they’re all jocks

 

They strut their stuff

With style and grace

Showing Green teeth

With a nasty face

 

Their bravado is something

All trying to be big men

Drinking always to excess

Looking like stupid bumpkins

 

Watching that Nascar

On the TV screen

Hunting and shooting

Just to be mean

 

Not much on brushing teeth

Or on the body hygiene

A new bar of soap

Probably never been seen

 

Barefoot and pregnant

Is the new way to be

If you want to live

Off the government for free

 

Them being inbred

Is just a relative thing

Doing it with your cousin

Leaves them all smiling

 

Living in a trailer park

Must surely be neat

Watching the tornados hit

While in your bare feet

 

Living this life of leisure

Must certainly be fun

Just remember when…

You see the cops, RUN!

when you can rise above the b.s. and learn to accept the indigenous hereditary facts (and the myopic blinders of those yankee thouroughbreds) then you'll be able to laugh at yourself in the mirror....(at least thats one of the reasons I use to tell myself why I'm laughing) funny write that gets up close and personal with a little attitude and some serious underlinings. I enjoyed this one T. thanks for sending.

This is an enlightening and humourous poem about rednecks. It makes me think of country bumpkins (who arent so uncouth) but also Chavs and townies who are dirtymouthed fashion disasters (without the bible). Rednecks are famous allover. The scariest i've met have always been from Texas and Kentucky. Nice poem mate.
