Pretty little one
How has it all begun
They're teaching you how to walk
But you're already on the run
Little one, what you gonna do
Little one, honey, it's all up to you

Now your daddy's in the den
Shootin' up the evening news
Mama's with a friend
Lately she's been so confused
Little one, come on and take my hand
Well, I may not have the answer
But I believe I got a plan

Honey, you shake, I'll rattle
We'll roll on down the line
See if we can't get in touch
With a very close friend of mine
But let me clue you in
It ain't like him to argue or pretend
Honey let me introduce you
To my redneck friend

Well, they've got a little list
Of all those things of which they don't approve
Well, they've got to keep their eyes on you
Or you might make your move
Little one, I really wish you would
Little one, I think the damage would do you good

Honey, you shake, I'll rattle
We'll roll on down the line
We're going to forget all about the battle
It's gonna feel so fine
'Cause he's the missing link
The kitchen sink, eleven on a scale of ten
Honey, let me introduce you to my redneck friend

Honey, you shake, I'll rattle
We'll roll on down the line
I'm going to try to swing you up into my saddle
And then we'll run but you'll think we're flyin'
Honey, don't just stand there lookin'
Like this dream will never end
Honey, let me introduce you to my redneck friend
I said, honey, let me introduce you to my redneck friend
