[ Предположительная тональность: G ] Subject: Randy Newman-Rednecks This was requested from an individual so I though i would also post it to nevada. This is basically a piano song (most Newman songs are), but I think the chords are pretty close. I apologize for any mistakes, but this is my first posting of music. I hope to do many more. Jeff B. Rednecks--Randy Newman From--Good 'Ole Boys Intro: Em7 G(add A)/B Em7 Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show Em7 G(add A)/B Em7 with some smart-ass New York Jew. Em7 G(add A)/B A7/C# And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox C/D Gsus4/D G and the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too. Em7 G(add A)/B Em7 Well, he may be a fool, but he's our fool. Em7 G(add A)/B A7/C# If they think they're better than him, they're wrong. Em7 Em7/D C A7/C# So I went to the park and I took some paper along C/D Gsus4/D G and that's where I made this song. Verse 1: G D7 G D7 We talk real funny down here. G D7 G D7 We drink too much and we laugh too loud. G D/F# Em7 We're too dumb to make it in no Northern town, A7 C/D G D7 and we're keepin' the niggers down. G D7 G D7 We got no-necked oilmen from Texas, G D7 G D7 good ol' boys from Tennessee, G D/F# Em7 college men from L.S.U. G D/F# Em7 Went in dumb, come out dumb too. G D/F# Em7 Hustlin' 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes. G D/F# Em7 Gettin' drunk ev'ry weekend at the barbuques, A7 C/D G and they're keepin' the niggers down. CHORUS: G C G C We're Rednecks, we're Rednecks, G D7 Em7 C7 and we don't know our ass from a hole in the ground. G D7 G D7 We're Rednecks, we're Rednecks, A7 C/D G and we're are keeping the niggers down. (last time only--slowly) E7 A7 C/D G We are keepin' the niggers down. Verse 2: Now your Northern nigger's a Negro You see he's got his dignity Down here we're too ignorant to realize That the North has set the nigger free. Yes, he's free to be put in a cage in Harlem in New York City And he's free to be put in a cage on the South side of Chicago and the West side And he's free to be put in a cage in Hough in Cleveland And he's free to be put in a cage in East St. Louis And he's free to be put in a cage in Fillmore in San Francisco And he's free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston. They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around, Keepin' the niggers down. (CHORUS)
