Well he traded in his dumb old Ford For a new smart car with an extension cord Now he's saving gas and got a cheaper note But he's got no way to haul his boat
It's the little things we take for granted When we sacrifice to save the planet The darndest thing I've ever seen That old redneck has done gone green
Down the road, old man McGower You know he runs his house on the solar power Now his lights are bright and the music plays Sort of dark and quiet on the cloudy days
It's the little things we take for granted When we sacrifice to save the planet The darndest thing you've ever seen This old redneck has done gone green
The life we knew is coming to a halt Sad but true, and it's our own fault We put our own crimson necks right in the noose We got strung out on that black dinosaur juice
Not long ago someone told me To quit using paper, stop killing trees She said soon there won't be no more books I swear to God on a stack of nooks
It's the little things we take for granted When we sacrifice to save the planet The darndest thing I've ever seen My redneck world has done gone green The whole dang place has done gone green.
