| | Iraq And Roll Lyrics Artist(Band):Clint Black
Black ignited a storm when he wrote and recorded this social comment song Iraq And Roll on the Iraq war. The song, written with Nicholas, caused the most controversy of the 100 tunes by the singer in his BMI catalogue. IRAQ AND ROLL You can wave your signs and protest against America taking a stand, the stands America's taking are the reason that you can. If everyone would go for peace there'd be no need for war. But we can't ignore the devil, he'll keep coming back for more. Some see this in black and white, others only gray. We're not begging for a fight, no matter what they say. We have the resolution that should put 'em all to shame. It's a different kind of deadline when I'm called in the game. Iraq, I rack 'em up and I roll, I'm back and I'm a hi-tech GI Joe. I pray for peace, prepare for war and I never will forget ~ there's no price too high for freedom so be careful where you tread. This terror isn't man to man, they can be no more than cowards. If they won't show us their weapons we might have to show them ours. Now it might be a smart bomb, they find stupid people too. If you stand with the likes of Saddam, well, one might just find you. Iraq, I rack 'em up and I roll, I'm back and I'm a hi-tech GI Joe. I got infrared, I got GPS, I got that good old-fashioned lead. No price too high for freedom, so be careful where you tread. Now you can come along or you can stay behind or you can get out of the way. But our troops take out the garbage for the good old USA. Iraq, I rack 'em up and I roll. for the USA.

Review about Iraq And Roll Prayers and Respect | Reviewer: forHim91 | 6/6/09 To all you men and women active at anytime in any branch of the service, I THANK YOU! I've known a few good people that have had to leave their families to go to war and they have all come home when so many haven't. I pray for those that are there and those that know their going and those that end the day not knowing. I'm praying for you! Thank you for giving so much for the one thing that will never be free. When I go to Walmart or McDonalds late at night and I choose which job to take and what to wear and the church I pray in I remember our wonderful American soldiers that have given us the ability to make our own choices. America and all her fine soldiers, I stand and I salute you! Thank you and God bless America! I'm already here. | Reviewer: PFC Fleurent | 4/20/09 i'm in iraq right now, doing what God brought us here to do. i don't care why we're here, all i know is i'm away from my family for tyhe next 10 months, already been here 2. don't know what the future has in store for me, but hope to get some, it's an army thing, civilian wouldn't understand. I live by the soldiers creed, and i'll die by the soldiers creed. the third line of the creed; I SERVE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND LIVE THE ARMY VALUES. that's what each and every soldier is here for. . . . . . you. for those who don't know, and probably don't care, but i pray every night, hoping to wake up the next day, and pray the same for all the people i swore to protect and defend. hope you can understand and appreciate everything we're (as in the entire military) doing everyday for you guys, the ones back home, who can't, don't, and won't fight, don't worry. . . . i got'cha. bless all who read this, and thank you for your support. PFC Fleurent From a soldiers mouth | Reviewer: NavyMan | 11/29/08 I support those out there. You should too right or wrong men were killed now lets get our ass out there and kick their ass!!! Have you all forgotten? Wake up, get real, and deal. This is Live. p.s ya ill be going to iraq COUNT ON IT! Good talk. | Reviewer: Clint Black | 7/28/08 Just curious but why does it seem like it's only us country-western musicians who are pro Bush and Dick? Everyone else is all Anti-war and killing and all that fun violent stuff! Come on people open your minds a little bit and buy a fully automatic assault rifle! Don't tell the Dixie Chicks I said that, I'm still trying to score that orgy! One of the worst songs ever "written" | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/18/08 Putting aside the fact that Clint Black's opinion about people who oppose the Iraq war is un-American and idiotic, the lyrics to this song read like they were written by a mentally challenged third-grader. It's like he wrote a bunch of tired cliches on slips of paper, shook them up in a bag, and drew them out one at a time to come up with the lyrics for this song. But yeah, this song is horrible. And the Iraq War had nothing to do with our freedom because Iraq was never even a remote threat to our freedom. And if Clint Black is a "hi-tech GI Joe" who "pray[s] for peace [and] prepare[s] for war," sounds like he's perfectly suited to head up to his local recruitment office and put his money where his mouth is. We can send him over there to get shot at, since he loves the war so much, and we can bring home one of our guys who would rather be at home with his family and get him the PTSD treatment that he probably needs by now. Different isn't always wrong | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/19/08 I don't have a problem with people writing, singing, and enjoying whatever songs they please; freedom of speech is, after all, granted by the First Amendment to our Constitution. However, I do take issue to the idea that those of us who dislike this song are unpatriotic, are communisits, and/or should go join the Iraqi people. What happened to the idea of freedom of opinion, may I ask? I dislike the lyrics to this song (I've never actually heard it, so I'm having to base this off the lyrics), mainly because they imply that suicide bombers are cowards, which I don't believe they are. They are people who believe in a cause and are willing to die for it. You could argue that they are misguided, because they believe they are doing God's Work, but first of all, who says all of them believe that? Some, perhaps many, don't believe this will insure them a place in heaven, but are simply willing to die for a cause they believe just. Second, what proof have you that they AREN'T doing God's Work? It may not be your personal version of God's Work, and you may not believe they are, but perhaps God has a plan no one else understands and it is the job of those people to die for it. That is, of course, assuming you believe in a God who has a Plan, but that is a totally different debate. Anyhow, would someone care to point out the difference between the Iraqis fighting for their country and their beliefs and the citizens of the U.S. fighting for theirs? I mean, were we the ones who had strangers in our country, trying to change our lives, supposedly for the better, wouldn't we resist, too? Wouldn't we do whatever was necessary to protect our rights, beliefs, and country? What is the difference between suicide bombers of Iraq and those Americans who give their lives for a cause in which they belive? Anyway, I fail to see how my opinion on this song makes me a communist and I would appreciate it if people could, before posting comments, remember that there are other people in this world who may have different opinions, and that doesn't make them bad or wrong. After all, in a sense, isn't our right to have different opinions one of the rights we are, supposedly anyway, fighting for in Iraq? I cannot think of a worse way to dishonor the memories of those who've died for our country, and those still fighting, than to try and deny other Americans one of the rights for which they fought, and perhaps died. AMERICA FUCK YEA | Reviewer: Pfc Anthony Hutchison | 5/31/08 It is my belif that all of you who say that the war is wrong need to go die you your self talk shit on the war and say shit about the war but have never seen anything it it is my belif that the war is right and just we are fighting a war were the insergents are cowards and use gorrila warfare just like the viet cong did they shoot and run away and he fucker when he said led he meant bulltes not bombes the war is just and right and all you communist bastards who dont like it should go back to fucking china of russia or where ever the hell you came from i support our trops our president and the american way of life. hooahhh U.S Army am in love with the usa | Reviewer: abdolah othman | 9/11/07 in this day.the day thir is pepul ben happy and pepul ben sad thir is pepul feel praod becose thye are amirecans . or thye have an amirecan heart.wher ever thye are from . god blas the freedom . fox . baghdad . iraq Make a Buck Off Bloodshed | Reviewer: Justin | 9/9/07 It seems that that nobody profits more from war than those that that have never have even considered fighting. From a president with a behind the lines desk job during the Viet Nam war and an AWOL record as well, to a couple of third grade reading level lyricists with red, white and blue on the brain. "Iraq and I Roll". Are you serious? That has got to be one of the stupidist things ever written in American music. The "Thong Song" is more intelligent. I am completely embarassed as an American citizen to be associated to these idiots as countrymen. Good job guys, this is complete crap. Do a little research, it ain't lead anymore, it's depleted uranium, and that my friends, is nuclear warfare. Hope these morons bought a sweet new pick up truck with the profits from this blind patriotic drivel, because I'm sure they figure it would be unamerican to help the innocent civilans of a war torn country if they don't belive in Jesus. What I think | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/6/07 This song isn't perfect, they can be no more than cowards?? it's a type of warfare, I'm back and I'm a hi-tech GI Joe, there is a few right and wrongs with this... It is the second gulf war so I'm back makes sense, Hi-tech? yes, air strikes, ground support aircraft, tomahawk cruise missiles, but war doesn't go by the book, and a bullet is just as good as the latest weapons systems, they both kill.
