The Dixie Chicks wont back down.
Edited on Thu Mar-16-06 10:55 PM by IsItJustMe
The Dixie Chicks have came out with a new song. Have they saw the light to appease there old base of the supposed red state crowd? Have they quit there old chimp bashing ways? Well, heres the lyrics to their new song, you decide:

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

1. Funny I don't hear much Dixie Chick -bashing anymore

Maybe in a couple of years, they'll be celebrated as visionaries.

I like them just the way they are. :headbang:

12. My hat's off to them...
I was furious when I saw what happened to them when they spoke their minds. How they were treated was a disgrace. Their lives being threatened doesn't surprise me in the least.

I love that they're turning it right back around. I'm buying this CD.

You go, girls! :yourock:

15. Hmmm... I'm a red stater, but not a red voter.
Please make the distinction.

Call 'em the "red voter crowd," please.

16. Yeah, right, I'm from FL - red/blue???? confuses me.
And no, I'm not THAT old and I didn't vote for Pat Buchanan. lol. Just like my avatar, FL is really a blue state. And I've always been a fan of the "Chicks". Even back when every other song on radio was them, it wasn't too much. I like them even more now, though.

19. No offense, but please notice the word 'supposed' before red state.
The word 'supposed' is used hear in order to debunk any myth that there are red states and blue states. I believe this is a media myth.

24. It's not out until May : ( could you remind us when it comes out?
They don't even list it yet on Amazon or Barnes and Noble. Could you put up a reminder when it does come out? I don't think I'll forget at least I hope not.

Thanks

25. I don't like country music generally . . .
but this one is super. Maybe I've been wrong about the genre.

26. Lets make this go platinum.
I have been around country music all my life, I wouldn't call this country but more of a protest folk song.

These woman deserve the recognition for being one of the very first to say this emperor has no clothes.

28. I think the Chicks said they were leaving the country scene and
going to rock.

27. I was at a James Taylor Concert last summer and he spoke admiringly about
them. If it's good enough for James, well then, it's good enough for me. He also toured with them in support of Kerry.
