  Back in the '70s, when Randy Newman was on his REDNECKS
album tour, he was at first a bit dumbfounded to find Southron
audiences responding to his song REDNECKS as an anthem.

(from the album in a song about Lester Maddox of Georgia..

"but he's our fool")

A fine album, too. I especially like the song BALTIMORE...
