That’s the setting of the new video for the song “Hillbilly Bone,” by country singers Trace Adkins and Blake Shelton:

I despise the video’s emphasis on booze and drunkenness, but I love the underlying message of the song: “We all got a hillbilly bone down deep inside. No matter where you’re from, you just can’t hide it.”

It echoes the theme of this blog as captured in the conclusion to my essay “Rednecks Rule“:

Yes, some rednecks are dirt poor, wear hand-me-downs, and have atrocious habits and manners. But others are stinkin’ rich, array themselves in the finest of garments and religiously heed the counsel of Miss Manners. What we all share are a common-sense approach to life and a passion for the simple things.
