Has anyone heard this new song by Charlie Daniels?

Starts out something like:

Quote:
This here's a flag not a rag and we don't wear it on our head.
It goes on to talk about how we're really mad and we're going to hunt down those terrorist and kill them. He was going to sing it on some country/western music thing but the orginizers decided it could offend someone, he then declined their invitation to sing other songs.

I have not heard of this incident, but it reminds me of some lyrics from a different CDB song:

"If you don't like the way I'm living', you just leave this long-haired country boy alone."

Charlie Daniels has never been politically correct. But his songs and and messages echo the feelings and sentiments of many Americans and hence, his continuing popularity.

CDB "nobody moved and nobody spoke, way down yonder near the hollow oak, hanginŽup there on the end of that rope, dance, gypsy, dance".

Nope... heŽs never been PC.
