Songwriters: Martie Maguire, Natalie Maines, Emily Robinson, Dan Wilson I'm not ready to back down 'Can't you just get over it?' To do what it is you think I should It turned my whole world around I'm through with doubt I'm not ready to make nice But I'm still waiting There's nothing left for me to figure out I'm not ready to make nice And how in the world can the words that I said I'm not ready to back down I probably wouldn't if I could Forgive, sounds good To go round and round and round And I kinda like it What it is you think I should I'm still mad as hell and I don't have time And I'll keep paying That they'd write me a letter sayin' that I better It's too late to make it right Shut up and sing or my life will be over I'm not ready to make nice Send somebody so over the edge I made my bed and I sleep like a baby I probably wouldn't if I could To do what it is you think I should To go round and round and round They say time heals everything 'Cause I'm mad as hell, can't bring myself It's a sad, sad story when a mother will teach her They say time heals everything I'm still mad as hell and I don't have time To do what it is you think I should Forgive, sounds good Forget, I'm not sure I could I'm still mad as hell and I don't have time With no regrets and I don't mind sayin' To go round and round and round It's too late to make it right I probably wouldn't if I could I know you said I'm not ready to back down Forget, I'm not sure I could 'Cause I'm mad as hell, can't bring myself I've paid a price Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger It's too late to make it right But I'm still waiting 'Cause I'm mad as hell, can't bring myself Publishers: CHRYSALIS MUSIC, SCRAPIN' TOAST MUSIC
An anthem for social justice and freedom. More importantly though it is a sad reminder that words have a lasting impact both for better and for worse. Perhaps this song is reminder that we could all stand to be a bit kinder to one another.

I love the Dixie Chicks and sure wish that they would come back. I could care less what every one else thinks about their views. We live in America they are allowed to have their own point of view. This is what we have fought for in every war we have ever had it is called "FREEDOM OF SPEECH".
|

I like their music and this is a great song. They have every right to say what they believe. Freedom of speech. With this right are reprocussion s that you take when you call your President stupid when your standing in a foriegn country. Then you return home and call Country music listeners hicks and stupid.
God Bless America for Freedom of Speech. |

I don't usually follow politically based squabbles, but I like this song and think makes a few very good points.
|

Oh I do like the song. I like the Dixie Chicks' music very much. Its just when someone like the poster below me makes statements like "hating Bush", etc...I must respond. Freedom of speech applies to all. If someone needs the Dixie Chicks to make them feel like they weren't the only one to disagree with Bush, they really need to get informed about our government and truth.

Guys, politics aren't the point. The music is.

Freedom of Speech applies to public and private speech. They had a right to say what they did and more people should have done the same instead of expressing their dissent in private. Maybe he wouldn't have been in office for 8 very long years. I love the Dixie Chicks and thank them for making me feel like I wasn't the only one that hated Bush at that time.

SOME PEOPLE SEEM TO FORGET THAT WE ARE AMERICANS AND NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK YOUR MIND (IT'S CALLED THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH JUST IN CASE YOU FORGOT!!!) SO IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT SOME PEOPLE HAVE TO SAY YOU CAN SHUT THE TV OFF, TURN THE RADIO OFF OR LEAVE THE ROOM..... Thanks to all the people like the dixie Chicks for using the freedom of speech and god bless the troops may they be safe and come home soon....

i like the Dixie Chicks music, they a song for every occasion and feeling. I think ppl should forget the whole "we hate bush" thing, we have a new president now so people should just get over what they said.
|
||
They dont have to be sorry. They shouldnt be. I'm glad they don't like Bush. Who does?
|
||
Speak for yourself. Not "EVERYONE" would have said the same thing. Some people have the common decency to support their president in public (in a foreign country no less)and disent in private. I have no problem with what she said...just where she said it.
|
||
More power to them. Everyone today would have said the same thing. It just took other people longer to figure it out.
