Redneck Romance Songtext
von Nine Pound Hammer

Now Billy Bob picks up Thelma Jean in his pick-up truck
And old Billy works down the garage, and she works at Kmart, just to make a buck
Tonight they′re heading to the drive-in for an all-night kung fu show
12 pack of Blue Ribbon, and two UK Happy Chandler huggers to keep 'em cold

Billy hangs a picture of Thelma in the garage for all the boys to see
She was voted Miss Lift Kit way on back in ′73
He belongs to the National Rifle Association, and she listens to WBKR
Chuck Norris is still their favorite movie star

Redneck romance, Billy Bob, Thelma Jean
Straight out of the pages, Guns 'n' Ammo magazine
In love with the town, only one thing you can do
Go to work, come home, get drunk and watch the tube


Now they both belong to the Baptist church and they play on the softball team
But they stay home every Sunday and watch the macho man on the TV
Old Billy and Thelma usually get along just fine
But every now and then, it′s once up side of the head to keep old Thelma in line

Day finally came that Thelma heard them wedding bells
Reception with family and friends and a show with The Vandals
Executive and Sunday brunch in the brasserie every night
Now listen here, by God, don′t try to tell 'em, live your life right, y′all
Skin a buck, woo!

Redneck romance, Billy Bob, Thelma Jean
Straight out the pages, Guns 'n′ Ammo magazine
In love with the town, only one thing you can do
Go to work, come home, get drunk and watch the tube
