Cover art for Uneasy Rider lyrics by Charlie Daniels Band

Agree Law4, this is one of the funniest and most clever stories ever told. It is always a pleasure to hear it and managed to catch him do it live a couple times.

Always wondered if Charlie meant to mess up the count of rednecks. Originally it was "five big dudes, one old drunk chick and some fella with green teeth" = 7. Then later it's "'Specially when there was three of them and only one of me". It was either an oversight or it sounded better saying 3 instead of 7. Only Charlie probably knows...or not!
