Glade told her ma, "Home scene's lame" "I gotta go head into town, blow some steam at the rock show" Sneak through the back door and head for the pit Then some drunk, stupid loser started giving her shit Redneck's on parade Don't cross my line Says Everglade Everglade He was whipping through the pit Knocked her into the stage She said, "Have your fun, But stop being so lame." This guy was drunk, stupid And he must have weighed a ton Said, "Get out of here girly, I'm just trying to have some fun." So you want to have some fun Well, break out the big guns Redneck's on parade Don't cross my line Says Everglade Everglade He kept it up, his fists started flying They dodged each punch, as he kept trying Tripped on his own feet and hit the floor Glade got to pushing and rolled him out the door So you want to have some fun? Well break out the big guns Rednecks on parade Don't cross my line Says Everglade
