The song, which name drops some of the best and biggest names in country music including Charlie Daniels, Tanya Tucker, George Strait, and Hank Williams, Jr., made its debut in 2004 as the debut single from Wilson’s first album, Here for the Party.
The hit remained at the top of the country charts for a whopping five weeks and still remains the most successful song of Gretchen’s career.
Redneck Girl Like Me
The music video is the ultimate country girl montage, featuring everything from pounding beers with the dudes to riding quads through the mud. Gretchen’s message is clear: ‘Redneck Woman’ is the anthem for the girls that ain’t the “Barbie doll types”, Gretchen’s depiction of a “real country woman”.
“A redneck woman is hard-working,” explained Gretchen in an LA Times interview. “She’s raising a family and holding down a job at the same time and is proud of who she is, no matter what.”
These days, when the no-frills country singer isn’t holding down her redneck values, she’s running her own label called (no surprise here) Redneck Records.
