Randy Newman - Good Old Boys album cover
 Good Old Boys was a 1974 album by Randy Newman. It was a concept album about the American South, with songs covering topics such as slavery, racism ("Back On My Feet Again"), the Great Mississippi Flood (the famous "Louisiana 1927") and poverty "Mr President (Have Pity On the Working Man)".

From the time of its release, critics have always loved Good Old Boys: it is frequently seen as one of the most essential singer/songwriter albums of all time. Robert Christgau gave it an A rating, and the 1992 Rolling Stone Album Guide gave it the full 5 stars. In 2003, the album was ranked number 393 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. Musicians have also admired it, most notably Elvis Costello.

It was Newman's first album to obtain major commercial success, for after his previous two albums had barely dented the Billboard Top 200, Good Old Boys climbed so consistently upon release that it spent two weeks in the Top 40 late in 1974, despite the absence of a single to promote it. In all it spent 21 weeks in the Billboard Top 200 and remains Newman's second-highest charting album. It also earned a gold record in Holland.
