David Allan Coe - Son Of The South Lyrics






I like to play Hank Williams Jr. records
Just as loud as they will go
I'm into Lynyrd Skynyrd
The Allman Brothers an' David Allan Coe

I like Willie, Waylon, George an' Merle
An' a lot of ZZ Top
They play country, soul with some rock 'n' roll
An' I hope they never stop

'Coz I'm a redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south
I don't like no new wave disco bands around

I'm gonna drink a couple dozen beers
An' go out an' jam some gears
I'm a long haired redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south

I've got a 1965 Harley chopper
It sure makes those women stare
I got a dead flamingo wrapped around
This cowboy hat I wear

Well, I can cuss, fight, spit, belch
An' raise all kinds of hell
If you ride to live like I live to ride
Let me hear that rebel yell

'Coz I'm a redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south
I don't like no new wave disco bands around

I'm gonna drink me a couple dozen beers
An' go out an' jam some gears
'Coz I'm a long haired redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south

I like my whiskey straight up
Daqueris makes me ill
If someone touches my Stetson hat
I get mad enough to kill

I got a rifle rack in my pickup truck
I'm a four wheelin' maniac
If you wanna race, you just name the place
An' I'll show you where it's at

'Coz I'm a redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south
I don't like no new wave disco bands around

I'm gonna drink a couple dozen beers
An' go out an' jam some gears
'Coz I'm a long haired redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south

Yeah, I'm a long haired redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south
Yeah, I'm a long haired redneck
Rock 'n' roll son of the south

    You think so, DAC had nothing to do with the writing of Tennessee Whiskey.

    amazing, these yankees all seam to want to turn into southern rebels! THEY ARE FAKE! kid rock, David Coe, and others over the years. sorry fellers if you aint born southern you will never be the real deal!!

    O.... ....

    My friend. As an actual southerner i must inform you. That Anyone who shares our values. Is sothern at heart. The confederacy was born in the south. but she's a global movement. The idea of "southern exclusion" is as useless as a bag of wemon at a gay bar.

    O.... ....

    You do know DAC was not Born in the South Right? In fact it wasn't until he was released from Prison in 1967 that he even crossed the Mason Dixon Line.

    O.... ....

    Kid Rock never claimed to be from the South. When he did a cover of this song, he changed the lyrics to "Son of DETROIT".

    e.... ....

    +exterminador1904 fun fact, there has been more blood spilled, atrocities condoned and hatred spread under the us flag than the confederate.

    e.... ....

    +exterminador1904 again it's people that are ignorant to what the flag actually means.

    e.... ....

    exterminador1904 yeah they do and it’s fucking disrespectful bc people like you see the battle flag and say it’s racist bc those racist fucks are useing the flag for the wrong way

    If I was David Allan Coe I'd listen to David Allan Coe too. This reasoning is you should listen to David Allan Coe no matter who the fuck you are.

    T.... M....

    im canadian and id have a bud with u any day

  40. c.... b....

    heJJ I'm from ohia to that is the south ain't it

  41. P.... T....

    that's the damn estate thing I I ever heard

  42. D.... T....

    How great is DAC? Max great, don't you yankees F-n know?

    D.... T....

    Dan Terry He’s from Ohio and is a fraud unfortunately. Talented I guess, but not a son of the south. If anything people like him are part of the reason the battle flag is seen as racist today, since he had some racist incidents and displayed it on everything despite not being from the south at all. But he’s a Yankee truthfully, from Northern Ohio

  43. L.... T....

    Great song. Come together southern brothers and sisters, we need to fight for the preservation of our culture. Deo Vindice

    L.... T....

    ohio boy who is afraid to identify yourself,I realize that the fact that the Southern Nation rising and becoming a force to be reckoned with scares the shit out of you.  It should.  Stay up north where you belong.

    L.... T....

    nick,  there are lots of songs that I enjoy listening to written, and performed by foreigners. If you have no problem with Southerners, then why did you choose to "be a smart ass", and lash out at me?  The actions of your president has created an environment that has brought more support for Southern independence than ever expected in the past few years.  The Southern people are once again "coming together" and becoming a nation again.  You and I are from two distinctly different cultures that cannot co-exist.  There are too many differences to list here.  Your people have a mental picture,and a deep seeded hatred of us that will never change no matter what.  I do everything I can every day to make the yankees that live here as uncomfortable as possible, and will continue to urge them to leave.  Fantasizing? I don't think so.

    L.... T....

    +ohio boy calm down he belongs to Johnny reb now

  44. A.... H....

    I love the guitar, and i LOVE DAC!!!! ALWAYS!!!!

    A.... H....

    Amy Hood it was dimebag darrells from pantera it was given to him when dimebag was murdered

  45. J.... B....

    I would love to be around when Al Sharpton tells David Allan Coe he needs to drop all the Confederate racial flags from his performances like he told Kid Rock.....

    J.... B....

    @Jessie Baird David probably wouldn't be quite the gentleman Kid Rock was when he told them to kiss his ass.

    J.... B....

    Kiss my southern ass,bigot

    J.... B....

    Yea me to

    J.... B....

    Al Sharpton can't tell DAC shit! And Kid Rock didn't do it his record label and tour promoters did! There was a little club in Davie that provided security for them both in Florida. So nobody was going to tell them anything except Yes Sir. You don't know your ass from a hole in the ground! So go hang with your Black Panther pals where you belong.

  46. J.... D....

    Ok really. can we stop with attacking the confederate flag. Race has nothing to do with it. Neither does the slaves. It was used in war...hence the FLAG....
    Please enjoy the fact that Richard Betts is Kickin' some badass guitar with DAC

    J.... D....

    Trish Leano I don’t think he’s gonna reply to that one

    J.... D....

    @Jamie van Brewen the flag on his guitar is the dixie flag with the southern cross. the confederate flag is called the stars and bars look it up. the dixie flag was never an official government symbol of the confederacy. the reason people assume the dixie flag is racist is the dixie flags used by the Ku Klux Klan are frequently defaced with the sun cross and inscriptions WHITE POWER and KU KLUX KLAN, all in black, with the outer red and inner white fimbriations of the sun cross. that is like saying the swastika used in asian religions is racist just because the nazis ripped off their symbol. no the dixie flag was a symbol of southern pride and heritage until the KKK adopted a defaced form of the flag. much like the nazis turning the swastika by 45 degrees and flipping its direction. you wouldnt go and force the asian people who see that as a symbol of heritage to remove it would you?

    J.... D....

    I love this song to but you can't ignore the fact that pro slavery state flew this flag the guy who design the flag was pro slavery even in present day white supremacists identify with the flag but other than that...bad azz song...last thing...Imagine a white person wearing a KKK robe and saying oh am not a racist it would be hard to believe all because of what the clothes stand/stood for..other than dat bad azz song...

    J.... D....

    @Jamie van Brewen fuck off the flag is apart of history, how about growing a set of balls

    J.... D....

    The American Flag was also used.....so is the American flag racist?

  47. K.... L....

    Love that guitar. Love me some David Allen coe. He's a legend and didn't follow main stream. A true badass

    K.... L....

    Who is David Allen Coe? I know of a Former employer named David ALLAN Coe.
