[F]There’s no place that I’d rather [Bb]be than right [F]here
With my red necks, white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer


The barmaid is mad ’cause some [Bb]guy made a [F]pass
The juke box is playing there stands the [C7]glass
And the [F]cigarette smoke kinda hangs [Bb]in the [F]air
Rednecks, white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer


[F]A cowboy is cussing the [Bb]pinball ma[F]chine
A drunk at the bar is getting noisy and [C7]mean
And, some [F]guy on the phone says I’ll [Bb]be home soon [F]dear
Rednecks white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer


[C7]No we don’t fit in with that [Bb]white collar [F]crowd
We’re a [C7]little too rowdy and a [Bb]little too [F]loud
There’s no place that I’d rather [Bb]be than right [F]here
With my rednecks white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer


[F]The semis are passing on the [Bb]highway out[F]side
The four thirty crowd is about to ar[C7]rive
The [F]sun’s going down and we’ll [Bb]all soon be [F]here
Rednecks, white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer


[C7]No we don’t fit in with that [Bb]white collar [F]crowd
We’re a [C7]little too rowdy and a [Bb]little too [F]loud
There’s no place that I’d rather [Bb]be than right [F]here
With my rednecks white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer


There’s no place that I’d rather [Bb]be than right [F]here
With my rednecks white socks and [C7]blue ribbon [F]beer
