@ZiggyStardust35 yeah i love it too but lately im not liking any flag
they seem to all get bloody sooner or later
which i guess is what r newman might be saying anyway sorry im kinda slow
on the uptake
-
really? oh you mean the second verse about being free etc, yeah its a clever song
-
One of his greatest songs. So economical. So little said. So much left unsaid. So many lovely empty paces. I also love that slight hesitation in the delivery of the notes, something he did previously with 'I Think Its Going To Rain Today'.

I listened to Rednecks for years thinking I'd gotten the irony of it. Only recently (10 years ago?) did I catch the irony on top of the irony in that song. Randy is certainly a master of that style.

"The best dream man has ever dreamed "in 4500 years is in process in the United States. Freedom & liberty ,to the extent it exists now the world ,is a direct result of our proactive efforts promoting freedom . To deny the totality of that result due to historical ignorance , arrogance or petty political bias is proof that some 'iealists.'just pretend to be .One doesn't need to be Einstein to recognize the dream of that flag's meaning in spite of self righteous arrogance of perfection.

you wish you cock sucking faggot

well said. think of the difference between saying something and showing it
-
by writing such songs and listening to them, there is of course that good hope. it's just hard to see. it's impossible to say such painful beauty, but that's why he is SHOWING it.

This is just an amazing song. My only hope is that people see the irony in it (and not take it literally ).
