- Check out the official music video of Chris Housman's hit song "Blueneck"
A "blueneck" is a liberal or progressive person living in the traditionally conservative and Republican-dominated southern United States. It’s a play on the term "redneck," which is often associated with conservative rural Southerners. The "blue" in "blueneck" refers to the color associated with the Democratic Party, suggesting a person whose views align with liberal politics despite living in a predominantly conservative region.

LYRICS
Grew up with corn fields in every direction
That’s where I learned all of my lessons
‘bout life and livin’ without fences
In the land of the free to have opinions
If you work a job, you oughta make a livin’
George Straight or George gay, there’s no difference
People need help and I think that we should listen
3 chords and my truth is...
I’m good old boy with a bleeding heart
Just a homegrown hick with a hybrid car
I think y’all means all
And I know we all just wanna know that we belong
There’s a lot more color in the mix
When you’re loud and proud out in the sticks
I am what I am, you get what you get
Yeah I guess I’m a red state blue neck
My American dream is wide open spaces
Plenty of room for us all to be safe in
Yeah that’s the future that I’m chasing
So I’m gonna go make it
I’m good old boy with a bleeding heart
Just a homegrown hick with a hybrid car
I think y’all means all
And I know we all just wanna know that we belong
There’s a lot more color in the mix
When you’re loud and proud out in the sticks
I am what I am, you get what you get
Yeah I guess I’m a red state blue neck
Can’t a country kid wanna see the glass ceiling shatter?
Wanna see a world where Black lives matter?
Liberty and justice for just some of us
Ain’t how the heartland brought me up
I’m good old boy with a bleeding heart
Just a homegrown hick with a hybrid car
I think y’all means all
And I know we all just wanna know that we belong
There’s a lot more color in the mix
When you’re loud and proud out in the sticks
I am what I am, you get what you get
Yeah I guess I’m a red state blue neck
Small town Texan gay here. I've loved your work ever since my cousin introduced me to you. I now own a non-profit serving queer people here in the lone star state, thank you for giving us blue necks a voice we love you!!!😊
That’s incredible! Thanks for everything you’re doing! 👏
As a 50 year old gay man who grew up in WV with zero diversity, this song hits home as a representation of my childhood. I usually don’t like country music, but this song is more than a genre of music…it’s a statement. Love it!
Thank you for teaching people not to judge a book by its cover! Keep opening those doors Chris! We love you!
I appreciate that!
Boy doesn’t even know how many of us are falling deeply madly in love with his beautiful perfect soul. ❤😊
Thank you for being you Chris.
I hope this is your moment. ❤
🤞🤞🤞
Haven’t had a lot of success listening to my country roots. This song made me emotionally happy. I’m so proud of you for showing what real country love looks like.
"Wide open spaces....plenty of room for us all to be safe in".
God knows there IS enough room for all of us in society, but some want to have it only for themselves and want to control who gets to be a part of society and who not. 😢
I always get a lump in my throat at this passage. Please keep the social commentary aspect in your songs, its much of the reason, this metalhead here loves your music.
Big hugs from Germany, Chris! 🤗❤
Always will do! 💙
You need to win a Grammy for your music. Great lyrics. Love your voice!
Hope to someday! 🤞🙏💙
AGREED
@@chrishousmanmusic Even if it's a few years later, hold on. This song and others will finally hit the masses in a bigger way. I had a book that took off 8 years after I published it. Art is timeless.
I'm a native Atlantan. I'm a metropolitan liberal, but this touches my soul. Thank you for your heartfelt words.
Kamala for president 💙💙
Beautiful Voice!
Sending love from Az 🏳️🌈😊🌵☀️
Thank you so much!!
Fellow red state blue neck in Arizona 😂😊💙💙💙
"Liberty and justice for just some of us‐ ain't how the Heartland brought me up" -- I want to shout it at everyone in my community! LOVE the video!
Right?!! It’s that simple!
This song says it all, Y’all! Grammy coming your way man…music and lyrics are incredible and touch the soul ❤
Chris Housman is a brilliant and talented gift to the country music world! (Especially for us gay boys!)
The inclusion of Gloria Johnson is awesome!
A perfect message for all be loud and proud
Love you Chris! You are greatest!
What a beautiful song and message ❤ you're amazing
Thank you 🙏
I hope you get invited to one of the inauguration balls for KH! We gay country boys need to stick together.
How cool would that be?
You are well on your way. The lyrics are brilliant. Thank you, Chris! 💙✌️
Great! song Chris. Your whole album “Blueneck” is incredible love it ❤
Okay you driving around waving to people reminds me of my dad because he was from Ohio and he used to talk about doing that, and up until his last days, was still a people person like that. As his best friend called him ‘a man of the people’. I wish I could show this to my dad! The Midwest is so beautiful! Thank you for showcasing it so well! Here’s to a great future and election season! 🩵🌈🗳️✨
Awhhh that’s so special, thanks for sharing Kathryn! 💙
Fantastic video Chris! The song is awesome, and that voice! 🤠

This Dude is 🫡FFICIAL !!! ❤ from NYC ...
The Gloria cameo! Although I live in a blue state, I love the sticks! Where I live it’s mainly ‘red.’ Not even a hint of purple.
I grew up in Southern Iowa. Saw the beauty of the rural life, but it just wasnt for me, I'm naturally a city boy! I love seeing music, ESPECIALLY country, showing that all types are everywhere. It's a great message, and THANK YOU for this wonderful song!
Exactlyyyy! Thank you!
You ever perform in KY? I live in Louisville these days
Everything that u have released has been so good..I've become such a fan of yours and I wish u so much success
Thank you so much!! 🙏
Blue state red collar (for want of a better description) here and agree very much with the sentiment of this song (and love the hooks). Be free, be happy. Let's get there. It's a lot closer than many may want you to believe.
There's a lot more color in the mix~ TELL THEM!!!💙💙
Understand the importance of this song and your situation as I am a Purple State Blue Neck currently living northwest of Atlanta.
We love and need our purple state bluenecks too! 💜
I relate to this so much. Thanks for your voice. ❤
Thanks Your music is about Love!
I'm from a conservative home in which to be a blueneck is one of the worst possible things; this song gives me hope for a better future, that one day me and my brethren will be able to live proud and loud the way we should. Thank you for sharing such a powerful message, it does change and touch lives ❤
Thank you for sharing 🙏💙

Awesome song. ❤💚💙💜
The song that kicked it all off. I love loveLOVE the message and once again you and Ford made a beautiful video baby 🎉
💙💙💙 thank ya friend!
George Strait or George Gay...great line.
Back when i was a wee lad , mom listened to WDLA radio from Walton, NY in the Catskill mountains of New York. Early 50's....and i listened along. Certainly not "red" neck....but it was very country and a loooog time ago. Your music and videos light the way back to the warmth of that time: before life got so complicated (before puberty set in 😁).........not sure why....but it does. Was a simpler, warmer time......thanks. There is still hope.
We can still get there! Thanks for sharing 💙
Love this song. I got a chance to tell Chris how much I really liked his music a few weeks ago at the Fatherland Fest. Keep on pushing forward, Chris! Ps. We see you, Gloria Johnson! Please vote for her this year. We need her to give Marsha Blackburn to boot!!!
Was great to meet ya!
Go man go! 😁🚀🚀🚀
❤. Chris, thank you for sharing your gift with us. Everybody else, if you haven’t already, get the album. It’s brilliant and very moving.
Ayyyy that! ^^^ Thank you!
Dude, I'm not that into country, but I love our country :)
Looking forward to this. 😎👍
@@tapanim6576 meeee too!
Wonderful song and glad there's a good video to accompany it now! 💙💙
Thank you, Love this song and I just wish more Artists expressed themselves in the Lyrics they sing more they should follow your lead because the world needs more Love,Joy, exceptions , peace harmony and mostly to mind their own Business and let everyone live and love whomever ever they choose., Thank God I live in America I would dislike to live in another country where you have no choice to whom you Fall in Love with rather than having your family plan your Soul mate like they do in other Countries. The Lyrics in this song is to the point and Beautiful
This is my new anthem! My brother you are my hero!!!
Yessss, we love having an anthem!
Perfect lyrics for this moment!! Thanks Chris 🫶🏻💙

Love hearing a country song that I can really identify with. That hasn’t happened in sooooo long.
NO WAY! I finally see this day comes
@@jeongyeon_L.O.V.E yessss, finally! Gonna be worth the wait! 😊💙
If this music existed when I was younger, I think a bunch of my teens 20s would have been a lot easier. I'm happy it exists now, cause hopefully it'll make some kids life a little better.
Love you buddy! You are my hero! ❤
💙💙💙
Incredible! I absolutely love this
Beautiful. I’m hoping to hear songs from LGBTQ artists about heart break, falling in love, infidelity, finding love and all the every day human emotions.

I found out days later that you were here for Houston Pride and the performance was terrific. Man... A day late and a dollar short. Next time... okay?
BTW, I hope you don't mind that I have sent a message to CBS Mornings to have you on their mixtapes feature. I want to see you on national TV!

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SONG TO HAVE A MUSIC VIDEO!!!!!!!
