"A Country & Western record made by people who obviously hate C&W with every fiber of their being, it layers every hillbilly cliche known to man---twanging Jew's harp, people shouting "yee-haw!", bluegrass banjo, horses neighing---and then tops it off with a vocalist singing in what may be the most risible American accent ever committed to tape."
I find it sad that it seems to be acceptible to use racial slurs for white people. I thought racist comments were wrong all the way around...I must be mistaken. Gotta love the double standards.
well it's more like a label to a specific group of people than a racist/derogatory comment. just like people called hispanics "mexicans" "beanards" "illegal aliens"etc. likewise hippies, redneck, etc is the term used to describe those type of people. however, you are free to interpret it which ever way you see fit
And beanards(beaner) IS a rascist comment. Just like cracker. While I will agree that redneck is not neccesarily rascist, it is still derogatory. But everyone has there opinion. It is just unfortunate that there are the double standards and that in itself doesn't seem to bother people as long as it is aimed at white people. Good example is Chris Rock. He is probably one of the more rascist comics around but people seem to think it is ok.
omg! im so irritated! Im looking for a song i heard in the 90's and cant find it.... the lyrics go like this: " ******* when i go home, the girls wont leave the boys alone, she pulled my hair, she stole my clothes, and thats allright till i go home, She's so handome, shes so pretty, shes the ************** she used to call me 1,2,3 **************************" (the stars are the word ive forgotten) Its like an irish sort of song...its awesome! CAN ANY1 HELP ME??????????????
Cotton eyed Joe is a folk from the southern USA, specifically the eastern half of Texas. It is a very regionalized tune that most Americans never heard before the tune was played in a Travolta movie of the early 1980's. Thinking an american from California, Minnesota, New York or other areas would know this song would be like thinking a child in Sweden might know the Ethiopian nation anthem.
When I was in the college dorm,my neighbor would play at 11:30 every school day. It was my alarm telling my to get my ass up for my class at noon. This song has tons of college memories for me. THANKS CHAD FOR THE DAILY ALARM!!!
This is the funniest song to be played ever, while at a Military Ball. Rather funny to see 100+ Soldiers in comabt uniform, dance to Cotton Eyed Joe, no matter thier rank.
Are you sure it's Swiss, because I'm Swedish and I'm pretty sure I saw them at a festival local to the country a while ago.

More you might be a redneck
- if you see a sign that says say no to crack and it reminds you to pull up your pants
- if your father's cell number has nothing to do with a phone
- if you've ever smoked at a wedding
- if you look back at 2nd grade as the best 3 years of your life
- if your house and your car are both up on blocks
- if you've ever mowed your yard and found a car
- if you've ever had to climb a water tower with bucket of paint to protect your sister's honor, you might be a redneck

-you think taco bell is a mexican phone company
-your state's got a new law that says when a couple gets divorced they're still legally brother and sister
