fG people actually telling their stories, you got a bunch of millionaire metrosexuals that have never done a hard day's work in their lives. But they figured out the words and the phrases that they can use to pander to their audience. And they list the same words and phrases off, sort of mad-lib style, raking in millions of dollars from actual working-class people. You know the words, you know know the phrases, phrases like:GA dirt road
Cadd9A cold beer
DA blue jeans
Cadd9A red pickup
GA rural noun, sCadd9imple adjectiveD Cadd9
GNo shoes
Cadd9No shirt
DNo Jews
Cadd9You didn't hear that G
Sort of a mCadd9ental tDypo
[Pre-Chorus]
EmI walk and talk like a fiDeld hand
GBut the boots I'm wearing cost thAmree grand
EmI write songs aDbout riding trCadd9actors
From the cDomfort of a private jGet
[Chorus]
GI can sing in MandarCin
DAnd still know I'm panderAming
EmHunting deer and chDasing trout
CA Bud Light with the loDgo facing oGut

DThat's textbook pandeAmrin'
EmI own a private raDnch that I rarely uCse
D I don't like dirt
[Spoken]
G One verse, Cadd9one chorus in the bag

Subtextually
[Pre-Chorus]
EmWe go to bed, Dyou doze off
