Sam Roberts Band Lyrics. "Bad Country". Went looking for God's Country. Went looking for a piece of Paradise. Found too many holes in my dreams. Spent too many days on thin ice. The city was mean and shallow. The desert was raw and blistering. The valley was green and narrow.
There are SO many awful lyrics in this song, but this is the worst. Seriously, what's the big freaking deal? He likes helping the environment? You see, this is why I hate country music, it's asshole music. "I heard he's got a Prius, 'cause he's into bein' green My buddies said he saw ya'll, eatin' that sushi stuff

This is actually the song that got me thinking about this topic. Tim McGraw‘s 2002 hit describes a young love that ends with an unexpected pregnancy, and ultimately an abortion. “Well, the very first time her mother met me Her green-eyed girl had been a mother-to-be for two weeks I was out of a job and she was in school And life was fast and the wo...
Loretta Lynnhas always been a trailblazer for women in country music, and has never been afraid to invite controversy head on with her songs. In fact, Loretta counts 14 songs of hers that have been banned from the radio at some point, for one reason or another. And none stirred up more controversy than “The Pill.” Released in 1975, “The Pill” tells...
“It’s your funeral.” That’s what Eric Church‘s label told him when he said that he wanted to release “Smoke a Little Smoke” as his third single from Carolina after having little success with the first two from the album, “Love Your Love the Most” and “Hell on the Heart.” Church had listened to his label up to this point, putting out radio-friendly ...
What more can you say about this one but: Yikes. I mean, what the hell were they thinking? I get that the song was supposed to address racial tension and serve as a sort of common ground for a white southerner who was proud of his heritage and a black man who still has to face the ugly reality of racism, but man, this one completely missed the mark...
This is one of the more stupid controversies on the list, because the song was pulled from radio stations because people THOUGHT it was about something that it wasn’t. If you take three minutes to listen to the words of the song, you’d know that Little Big Town‘s “Girl Crush” is about a girl who’s jealous of another girl for being with the man that...
“Red Rag Top” wasn’t the first Tim McGraw song to stir up some major controversy. His 1994 single “Indian Outlaw” drew outrage from some Native American groups for featuring offensive themes and stereotypes. Tim McGraw even met with protestors who wanted him to stop playing the song at live shows, though he ultimately refused to remove it from his ...
Kitty Wells made history in 1952 when she became the first solo female artist to reach #1 on the Billboard country chart with “It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels.” But it also caused some controversy along the way. The song was a response to Hank Thompson’s “The Wild Side of Life,” which blamed God for making his wife a “honky tonk angel” who...
Never one to shy away from speaking out on important social issues, Kacey Musgravesmade it crystal clear where she stands with her 2013 hit “Follow Your Arrow.” There was of course this line that led to the song being considered trailblazing (and in some circles, controversial) for its embrace of homosexuality in a genre that often shies away from ...
If you’ve never heard the story of how Kris Kristofferson managed to get Johnny Cashto record his songs, it’s a pretty good one. It turns out, Kristofferson was working as a janitor at Columbia Records, which was Johnny Cash’s label. Kristofferson befriended June Cash, and would slip her his demos to take home and play for her husband. When that di...
Ok, so it wasn’t this song that caused so much controversy for Garth Brooksas much as it was the accompanying music video. If you’ve heard the live version of “The Thunder Rolls,” you know that there’s a fourth verse to the song that didn’t make it on to the radio edit: “She runs back down the hallway, and through the bedroom door She reaches for t...

May 4, 2016 · These are among the most brash and bold but honest country songs that ever challenged the status quo or made record executives nervous. It's all in how you define "outlaw."
May 11, 2021 · The Bellamy Brothers claim that this was the first country-rap song, but with its silly lyrics, it just can’t be anything but annoying. This song was released on the album of the same name all the way back in 1986.
