looks like we're spending Christmas
with mama's new redneck boyfriend
they like to go fishing, get drunk and play cards
and when he's off parole,
he's gonna take her to Vegas
until then, it's just beer and basketball
oh, mama, don't let him treat you too mean
and before I visit, be sure to tell him
I'm a vegetarian
so he won't need to shoot me a turkey this year
and maybe you should also warn him
that your daughter's half queer
'cause my mom's got a brand spankin' new redneck boyfriend
they like to go fishing, get drunk and play cards
and when he's off parole,
he's gonna take her to Vegas
until then, it's just beer and basketball
my mom spent her last life cavorting with bigwigs
while my dad made the big bucks
down at old IBM
but now she's got her own truck
she spends her weekends at Wal-Mart
and she laughs about used-to-being one of 'them'
'cause my mom's got a brand spankin' new redneck boyfriend
they like to go fishing, get drunk and play cards
and when he's off parole,
he's gonna take her to Vegas
until then, it's just beer and basketball
and my mama, she asked me, what would you like for Christmas
you know, you've been my best baby
for twenty five years
and I said a fish mounted trophy, well that could be pretty nifty
but can I please just stay with grandma this year
'cause my mom's got a brand spankin' new redneck boyfriend
they like to go fishing, get drunk and play cards
and when he's off parole,
he's gonna take her to Vegas
until then, it's just beer and basketball
I said, until then, it's just beer and basketball
