The Lyrics
I initially wanted to use one of the now 12 numbered versions of the wonderful classical but rare HEXADECIMAL chorus lines with internal rhymes as title for this parody, but they are all too long. Maybe that was just as well, because it was already hard to chose among them. Tell me if you want in the comments which one was your favorite (or make up a number 13 etc yourself).
A YouTube version of the original song can currently be found here.

Well, it's like this
I'd never dream of leaving the boonies
For a town that has a quarterback who kneels
I wouldn't stand their watered down brewskis
I know I'd be way down in the dumps
When I'm at home, when here at home
I'm down here with my bros
And I'll tell you, yes I'll tell you
You see...
1 I'm living in the sticks where I'm loved by the mosquitos and ticks
2 I'm drinking mostly 'shine but I swear that it's the top of the line
3 I'm crashing into bars and I have some bumper nuts on my car
My dreams are pretty base for a Joe Blow
I'd start a meth lab here on the skid row
When rich I would go always commando
Down at the range AND using more ammo
When I'm at home, when here at home
I'm down there with my bros
And I'll tell you, yes I'll tell you
You see...
4 I'm one of eighteen kids with as many dads out here on the skids
5 I'm working for the man, but I grunted for a year in the 'Stan
6 I'm doing menial tasks but you'll never find me wearing a mask
When I'm at home, when here at home
I'm chilling with my bros
And I'll tell you, yes I'll tell you
You see...
7 I'm growing 'stache to flex but it'll never be as big as my ex'
8 I'm chasing after sheep and I take them on the back of my jeep
9 I'm porking like a swine but the hottest gals around are bovine
10 I'm getting by on beers and I have two MAGA hat souvenirs
11 I'm waving with my axe if you're coming liberal with that waxx
12 We're cancelled by the wokes but I'm down here with the still normal folks
I'd never dream of leaving the boonies
For a town that has a quarterback who kneels
I wouldn't stand their watered down brewskis
I know I'd be way down in the dumps
When I'm at home, when here at home
I'm down here with my bros
And I'll tell you, yes I'll tell you
You see...
1 I'm living in the sticks where I'm loved by the mosquitos and ticks

3 I'm crashing into bars and I have some bumper nuts on my car
