Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show

With some smart a** New York Jew

And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox

And the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too
观众们也曾嘲笑莱斯特·马多克斯
Well he may be a fool but he's our fool
他或许是个傻子 但他是我们的傻子
If they think they're better than him they're wrong
若他们自以为比他高贵 那就大错特错
So I went to the park and I took some paper along
于是我带着纸笔去了公园
And that's where I made this song
在那里写下这首歌
We talk real funny down here
我们南方人说话腔调古怪
We drink too much and we laugh too loud
纵酒狂欢 笑声震天
We're too dumb to make it no Northern town
笨拙得无法在北方城市立足
We keepin' the niggers down
我们维持着现状
We got no-necked oilmen from Texas
我们有德克萨斯来的粗脖子石油工人
And good ol' boys from Tennessee
还有田纳西来的朴实老哥
And college men from L S U
以及路易斯安那州立大学的毕业生
Went in dumb come out dumb too
进去时无知 出来时依旧
Hustlin' 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes
穿着鳄鱼皮鞋在亚特兰大四处奔波
Gettin' drunk every weekend at the barbecues
每个周末烧烤会上喝得烂醉
We keepin' the niggers down
我们维持着现状
We're rednecks we're rednecks
我们是乡巴佬 我们是乡巴佬
We don't know our a** from a hole in the ground
我们愚昧无知 分不清是非黑白
We're rednecks we're rednecks

We keepin' the niggers down

Now your northern nigger's a Negro
你们北方的黑人被称作"有色人种"
You see he's got his dignity
你看他们保持着尊严
Down here we're too ignorant to realize
而我们南方人太过愚昧 意识不到这点
That the North has set the n****r free

Yes he's free to be put in a cage in Harlem in New York City
是啊 他们自由到只能在哈莱姆的铁笼里生存
And he's free to be put in a cage

In the South-Side of Chicago the West-Side

They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around

Keepin' the niggers down

We're rednecks we're rednecks
