"Crazy Shady Uncle" lyrics

We ain't up in high cotton, they livin' spoiled rotten
We're Kroger-brand shoppin', man, still goin' broke
My overtime's hurtin', this workin' ain't workin'
Don't do signs, but I'm certain I should have more dough

We dream to make more just to pay more
Put more four-dollar diesel in our Ford

We're all rednecks, writin' checks to the government
For pothole roads and a whole buncha other shit
Givin' what I made with my own damn hands
To my crazy shady Uncle Sam
Yeah, my crazy shady Uncle Sam

He says he's gonna spend it and I'll be benefittin'
And this time it's different and he's someone to trust
He talks smooth as butter 'bout teachers, cops, and mothers
Well, let me tell you, brother, he don't give a, woah

We're all rednecks, writin' checks to the government
For pothole roads and a whole buncha other shit
Givin' what I made with my own damn hands
To my crazy shady Uncle Sam (Thanks, son)

Big head, big hat, points at you like that
Says, "Believe every word I say"
His jokes ain't funny, he's playin' us for dummies
Took the money and he's runnin' away

We're all rednecks, writin' checks to the government
For pothole roads and a whole buncha other shit
Givin' what I made with my own damn hands
To my crazy shady Uncle Sam, oh
We're all rednecks, writin' checks to the government
For bailin' out banks and some billionaire secret shit
Chargin' me to live on my own damn land
My crazy shady Uncle Sam
Yeah, my crazy shady Uncle Sam
