Verse 1
Ab 
My  (A flat major) wife is from Louisiana.
That's a special breed of redneck down there.
That's rednecks with hot sauce
on them.
And Louisiana has guaranteed
the best food on this planet
as long as you don't
ask too many questions
F# 
about what  (F sharp major) you're eating.
Ab 
 (A flat major) I've seen her relatives hit boiling pots
with wooden spoons going,
Get back in now!
Get back in that pot right now!
Remember a couple of months ago
when they had all the floods in Louisiana?
My wife and I were
watching this on CNN
and I told her, I said, you watch, they're going to find
the biggest, stupidest idiot they can find in the whole state,
and they're going to show him
walking chest deep in water
down Main Street.
And they did.
And it was my wife's
cousin, Danny.
Walking chest deep in water,
holding an umbrella.
I was just looking at her going,
that's got to make you proud right there,
doesn't it? That's your bloodline
walking down the street.
Then it started making me worry
because I realized it was my
children's bloodline, too.
And you mix stagnant
pond water
with raw sewage
you ain't getting heavy on.
