Well, I went down to Nashville
In 1973
And they wont nobody in Music City
Wanted anything to do with me
They said,? Boy you sure dress funny
And you just dont fit our crowd
And your musics weird, your hairs too long
And you play that guitar way too loud?
I said, Yeah, I know, Im different
I know, Im not the same
And you may drive a big Cadillac car
But I aint gonna play your game?
And you can put me down in this guitar town
And I aint gonna be afraid
Cause Im a proud walkin, slow talkin
Hard headed, high steppin genuine renegade
Well, I aint afraid to tell you whats on my mind
I just aint the bashful type
I go all the way for the U.S.A.
Cause I love them stars and stripes
I aint never been scared of nothin
And Im a renegade to the bone
So if youre looking for trouble better bring you some help
Im a little bit more than you can handle alone
Im mighty proud of Dixie
Im just full of Southern pride
Im a catfish connoisseur
And I know, Im countryfied
I get an ornery streak sometimes when I speak
But I guess, its just the price I paid
Cause Im a hard drivin survivin
Four wheelin, straight dealin genuine renegade
And you can put me down in this guitar town
I aint gonna be afraid
Cause Im a proud walkin, slow talkin
Hard headed, high steppin genuine renegade
