The Dixie Chicks have returned

Shunned in 2003 after
lead singer Natalie Maines
criticized Pres. Bush
during a concert oveseas
protesting the war;
"5" Grammy Award winners in 2007
Hit record, "I'm not ready to make nice"

Out of frustration
You said what you thought
Then none of your music
Your fans had bought

You spoke your mind
You wanted peace
People got angry
They thought you should cease

For President Bush
You lacked respect
What you said on stage
They didn’t expect

In the USA
You can say what you like
Especially when
You have the mike

This war makes no sense
People agree
With the Dixie Chicks
Their views they now see

Time heals all wounds
Well, maybe some
With the Dixie Chicks
Their return has begun
