Shortly after it’s release this country actually began to acknowledge confederate leaders as heroes which is why about 90% of all confederate monuments were erected around 1915 - 1930.

I hate that song too, but luckily, I rarely hear it. The two songs I really hate, besides other country songs in general, are the two I always hear sung at karaoke shows around 9-11 and the 4th of July, namely God Bless The USA by Lee Greenwood, which I call the unofficial redneck national anthem, and the Toby Keith song, Courtesy Of The Red, White And Blue.
