I don’t listen to country music that often, but sometimes I fire up my Windows Media Player and hit a random country station just for fun. I just got through two songs, both of which are GREAT. Maybe I’ll listen more.

Tracy Byrd: The Truth About Men is absolutely hilarious.

We don’t like to go out shoppin’,
We don’t care what’s on sale.
We just want to sit with a bag full of chips,
Watchin’ the NFL.

…

Well, that’s the truth about men.
Yeah, that’s the truth about us.
We like to hunt and golf on our days off,
Scratch, an’ spit, an cuss.

…

We hate watchin’ “Steel Magnolias”.
We like “Rambo” an’ “Die Hard 4″.
Jump up and down like fools when we see the new tools,
At the Home Depot store.

It was followed immediately by this Clay Walker song titled “A Few Questions.”

How in this world can we put a man on the moon,
And still have a need for a place like St Jude’s?
And why is one man born,
In a place where all they know is war?
An’ a guy like me,
Has always been free.

An’ how can two people who built a lovin’ home,
Try for years an’ never have a child of their own?
When somewhere out there tonight,
There’s a baby no-one’s holdin’ tight:
In need of love.
To me, that don’t add up.

But I wasn’t there the day you filled up the oceans.
I didn’t get to see you hang the stars in the sky.
So I don’t mean to second guess you,
Or criticise what I don’t understand.
These are just a few questions I have.

An’ why did my cousin have to die in that crash?
A good kid, only seventeen, I still wonder ’bout that.
It seems unfair to me,
Some get the chance to chase their dreams,
An’ some don’t.
But what do I know?

I wasn’t there the day you filled up the oceans.
I didn’t get to see you hang the stars in the sky.
So I don’t mean to second guess you,
Or criticise what I don’t understand.
These are just a few questions I have.

Why do I feel like you hear these prayers of mine.
When so many oughta be ahead of me in line?
When you look down on me,
Can you see the good through all the bad?
These just a few questions I have.
