[Intro 1]
[C][C][C][C]

[Chorus 1]
What this world needs is
a few more [F]rednecks
Some people ain't afraid to take a [C]stand
What this world needs is a little more [G]respect
For the Lord and the law and the workin' [C]man
We could use a little peace and satis[F]faction
Some good people up front to take the [C]lead
A little less talk and a little more [G]action
And a few more rednecks is what we [C]need
[F][Eb][C]

[Verse 1]
I was [C]raised on beans beans and cornbread
And I [Dm]like my chicken fried
[F]Yes, I drive a pickup truck
And I'm [G]full of American pride
I keep a [C]Bible on my table
I got a [Dm]flag out on my lawn
And I [F]don't believe in mindin'
No one's [G]business but my [C]own

[Verse 2]
And I [C]love them Rambo movies
I think they [Dm]make a lot of sense
And it's a [F]shame ole John Wayne
Didn't live to [G]run for president
And I don't [C]care what nobody says
I don't [Dm]trust ole Gorbachev
And [F]I don't know who turned him on
But it's [G]time to turn him [C]off

[Chorus 2]
What this world needs is
a few more [F]rednecks
Some people ain't afraid to take a [C]stand
What this world needs is a little more [G]respect
For the Lord and the law and the workin' [C]man
We could use a little peace and satis[F]faction
Some good people up front to take the [C]lead
A little less talk and a little more [G]action
And a few more rednecks is what we [C]need
[F][G][G]

[Verse 3]
Now they're [C]tryin' to take my guns away
And [Dm]that would be just fine
If you [F]take 'em away from the criminals first
I'll [G]gladly give ya mine
And I [C]don't mind payin' taxes
But it [Dm]makes my temper itch
When my [F]hard earned money goes
To make some [G]politician [C]rich

[Verse 4]
What most [C]people call a redneck
Ain't [Dm]nothin' but a workin' man
And he [F]makes his livin'
By the sweat of his brow
And the [G]calluses on his hands
Now you intel[C]lectuals may not like it
But there [Dm]ain't nothin' that you can do
'Cause there's a [F]whole lot more
of us common-folks
Then there [G]ever will be of [C]you

[Chorus 3]
What this world needs is
a few more [F]rednecks
Some people ain't afraid to take a [C]stand
What this world needs is a little more [G]respect
For the Lord and the law and the workin' [C]man
We could use a little peace and satis[F]faction
Some good people up front to take the [C]lead
A little less talk and a little more [G]action
And a few more rednecks is what we [C]need
That's what we [F]need
[G]And a few more rednecks is what we nee[C]d
[C]
