Aye, Dave, I'll grant that Junior is a fine performer and can make even something like this sound profound--but the message can't stand without his performance, at least in your head. As a singer, Junior is much stronger than his daddy and has a much more exciting band behind him; as a songwriter he ain't even close.--seed
Do you know his "A Country Boy Can Survive"? Similar kind of message--I was caught up in his performance and didn't think about the words much until the third or fourth time through: at best, adolescent wish fulfillment; at worst, vigilantism.
