Niggers do a pretty good job of keeping themselves down. P.S. I'm saying that through a persona.
-
@MrJohnshopkins53 So you're fine with being an ignorant stereotyping person?
-
@alonzo9772 All the more reason why he should sing it. This song is gold.
-
The song from 1973,Good ol boys album, points out how dumb the red necks are.

@JQuig1984 jolly papaya knows wtf is up. smart dude.

As a white person, I wish everyone understood that this wasnt a dig a "nigga's". but a dig at "rednecks".
Theres a reason this shit isnt banned and that's because it isnt racist.
Especially for its time..

Great song, both Music & lyrics, America at its best, it's good to have someone cleaning our own doorstep this way sometimes; irony is a double-edged weapon, some get it, some don't.I am a white non-american man, I am 42, I remember studying "I had a dream" famous speech by reverend martin Luther King jr at school in France.It touched me deep inside.Last year, I went to Memphis, TN. I met my wife there. She took me to the NCRM. I never was the same ever after.It's high-time you change America!

Astonishing stupid reply. As Woody Allen once said in a famous movie "you know nothing of my work"
-
It's a smart thing that he doesn't sing this song anymore. It's not worth it, to make people angry.
-
There's nothing sad about the freedom of speech.

as a Black American i can say that I am not offended by this song.. because it's part of american history..it's the way people thought back in day down south.. and new orleans is as far south as you can get before you're in the Gulf..it's a song about the ignorance of racism."Red necks don't know their A** from a hole in the ground but, we keepin da Ni**ers down"..it's sad but we are still a nation that has freedom of speach, at least he's honest and says it to your face. I respect that..

@jollypapaya oh Jesus christ NO! Newman isn't a southern redneck racist. This song is supposed to be ironic and hypocritical. Listen to the black ghettos he sings about in the song. They're all northern and midwestern ghettos. What he's saying is that Americans blame the South for racism against blacks but the entire country is guilty of it. Listen to it again. Newman isn't a racist. This is an anti-racist song.
