I agree. In this song, it's easy to conclude he wasn't talking about country-folk.

SGT (Join to see) - Context matters. Most of the "rednecks" I have known enjoy the title and generally aren't put off by anyone using it. On the other hand, no one likes being called something when the word is spoken in anger, meant to demean, to intimidate, or to provoke. Some words have become uniformly pejorative, so should not be used.

CPT John Sheridan - Again, I agree. I laugh when I'm called a redneck or country boy.
