MODERATORS
The lyrics are extremely basic and not creative in the slightest. They make gestures towards working class solidarity, but are petit bourgeois attitudes wrapped in redneck aesthetics for comfortable middle class folk. Songs like this are a dime a dozen, and I’m sure you can find another song like this, especially in country/bluegrass, without the racist undertones.
Oh I don't need the song I'm just pointing out how people are providing incompetent analysis like yourself
Okay, so what in your mind is the “prime thrust” of the song. Because to me it has a pretty clear middle class perspective
