Good ol' boy is a slang term used, either to self-identify as or to refer to a male, usually white and of Northern/Western-European descent, who lives in a rural area and/or subscribes to a traditionally "rural" lifestyle. The term is generally thought to originate in the rural areas of the southern and southwestern U.S. While other terms such as redneck, hick, yokel, "Bubba", and "white trash" are also applied, though usually pejoratively and are often interchanged with "good ol' boy," the "good ol' boy" is more of an idealized image of rural Americans, Canadians and Australians

The term Good Ol' Boy is not synonomous with redneck, hick, bubba, yokel and especially not white trash. The term refers to a male who is, by personal choice and action, a good person. A good ol' boy is one willing to help anyone anytime. A good ol' boy is one you know you can always count on and he lives his life by his word. The term Good Ol' Boys Club is refering to the "brotherhood" that a Good Ol' Boy belongs. Just as the Marines are the few and the proud, so are the members of the Good Ol' Boys Club.
