Morgan Wallen has once again sparked intrigue with a teaser for his latest song, shared on Instagram Friday morning. The preview suggests another provocative piece aimed at a particular demographic.
In the Instagram video, which runs for approximately 1 minute and 25 seconds, Wallen appears to take shots at city dwellers.
The song begins with the lyrics: “Hey Mr. City Man, [Rolex] on your wrist / NASDAQ in your hand / rolling your eyes at my beat-up truck.”
Throughout the song, Wallen continues to highlight the differences between lifestyles in Tennessee, expressing a desire for the traditional American way of life to persist.
The reality of the current American lifestyle
In one line, he sings, “When you die, I hope you come back as a redneck,” seemingly criticizing the city dwellers lifestyle while many Americans struggle to make ends meet.
Against the backdrop of record-high inflation and in the midst of an election year, this song reflects the current American experience.

Here are Morgan Wallen’s “Redneck” Lyrics:
Hey mister city man
Rollie on your wrist, Nasdaq in your hand
Rollin’ your eyes at my beat up truck
Feed in the back, spittin’ in my cup
Both our tags say Tennessee
Don’t know you, I know you don’t know me
But if this red light didn’t have to change, I’d have time to say
When you die, I hope you come back as a redneck
I hope it sticks on you like a hell-hot sun tattoo
I hope you break your back for that barely-get-by paycheck
And when you can’t, you gotta go and bloody up a buck or two
Catch the Holy Ghost on a pine wood bench
Drive across the county just to hook up a winch
Revel in the pride of a simple man
Maybe thеn you’ll understand
