Billy Joe McAlester junior showed up at the reunion
Clean cut shaved decked out in Armani’s best
In perfect spoken english
he said now days I go by William
And he talked about his new life
and money he’d made out West
And he tried his hardest not to be
that old boy we all new
Til he pulled out that Earnhardt wallet
on that chain hooked to his belt loop
You can’t hide redneck beneath a three piece suit
No starched white collar is gonna keep it
from bleeding through
You might as well forget it
it’s gonna find it’s way out
You can’t hide redneck you might as well be proud
Well the last we all seen of Sandy
she’d moved up to Boston
Law school paid off made her a Federal judge
Scotty had to go and ask her
if she still hates John since she lost him
She said ‘John who,
oh yeah no I don’t hold a grudge’
And her honor stayed as professional
as long as she could
As the time went on she lit into John
just like we all knew she would
You can’t hide redneck behind a big old job
A big old cherry wood desk sure ain’t no camoflage
You might as well forget it
it’s gonna find it’s way out
You can’t hide redneck
You can’t hide redneck
In a big old grouch
You’re gonna blow our cover
can’t keep us from getting loud
You might as well forget it
it’s gonna find it’s way out
You can’t hide redneck you might as well be proud
Might as well be proud
