Heartless: Gretchen has more soul anyway

Let's work with the right Wilson

So the aging hippie-chick Wilson sisters of the 1970s-80s rock band Heart object to their song “Barracuda” being played at McCain Palin events. So what?

Why not use another Wilson’s (no relation, I think) song instead? Gretchen Wilson likely would not mind loaning her wildly popular country anthem “Redneck Woman” to Sarah Palin , I’ll wager. Gretchen was a Fred Thompson supporter early on and performed at last week’s RNC convention for the McCain-Palin ticket. She might even be intersted in re-writing a variation custom-tailored for the GOP vice presidential nominee.

Just as an exercise in such speculative thought, here’s one possibility:

>Well, I ain’t never been your basic liberal harpie type
No, I can’t drink the left’s Kool Aid, I stay away from all that hype
I hunt and fish and ride a snowmmobile for fun
You can find me in the outdoors on my daily ten-mile run

Some elites they look down on me, but I don’t give a rip
I can shoot an M-16 just fine with a baby on my hip
‘Cause I’m a hockey momma
I ain’t no left-wing snob
I’m just a product of the middle-class
And my husband’s true heart throb
He helps me raise the kids so I can do my job
I’m a happy warrior princess who’s pretty as a peach
And I know all the words to every Ronald Reagan speech
So here’s to all my sisters who help to keep our country free
Let me get a big ‘Sarah’ from the hockey moms like me
Sarah!

I must admit the state’s jet plane was plush and really nice
But I can fly Alaska Airlines for less than half the price
I stood up tall to Exxon, Conoco and to BP
They own some politicians but they never will own me
You might think I’m too blue collar and a little too hardcore
But in my neck of the woods I’m just the girl next door

Hey I’m a hockey momma
I’ve been cleaning up my state
That good ol’ boy network
Has met its match and met its fate
And I cut pork spending with my trusty veto pen
And cut taxes in my state to put an end to tax-and-spend
And I know all about oil and gas and other kinds of energy
So here’s to all my sisters who help to keep this country free
Let me get a big ‘Sarah’ from the hockey moms like me
Sarah!

I’m a hockey momma
And my son is headed to Iraq
I’ll pray each day for his safe return
Until the day that he comes back
You better leave my kids alone, I say without a doubt
Or Sarah Barracuda will chew you up and spit you out
You won’t ever make me cry, you won’t ever hear me whine
I love my family, I do my job, and I keep my enemies in line
I’m gonna help The Maverick shake up Washington DC
Let me get a big ‘Sarah’ if you want me to be VP
Sarah!

Sarah!

I said Sarah!

I’m for the low man on the totem pole
And I’m for the underdog God bless his soul
And I’m for the guys still pulling third shift
And the single mom raisin’ her kids
I’m for the preachers who stay on their knees
And I’m for the sinner who finally believes
And I’m for the farmer with dirt on his hands
And the soldiers who fight for this land

Chorus:

And I’m for the Bible and I’m for the flag
And I’m for the working man, me and ol’ hag
I’m just one of many
Who can’t get no respect
Politically uncorrect

(Merle Haggard)
I guess my opinion is all out of style
(Gretchen Wilson)
Aw, but don’t get me started cause I can get riled
And I’ll make a fight for the forefathers plan
(Merle Haggard)
And the world already knows where I stand

Repeat Chorus

(Merle Haggard)
Nothing wrong with the Bible, nothing wrong with the flag
(Gretchen Wilson)
Nothing wrong with the working man me & ol’ hag
We’re just some of many who can’t get no respect
(Merle Haggard)
None
(Gretchen Wilson)
Politically uncorrect
(Merle Haggard)
Politically uncorrect

And God Bless her, shes a FREDHEAD!!!

I don’t suppose I’ve ever hated any song (other than possibly Coward of the County by Kenny Rogers and Redneck Woman by the Bellamy Boys) any worse than that song. I can hardly get to the dial fast enough when that nasty piece of trash comes on.

But don’t you find it a bit ironic that the Wilsons won’t let a presidential candidate use Barracuda, but a minivan…sure. Go ahead.

Priorities, people. Priorities.
