Nice song. Country is not my preferred genre, but I liked the sentiment.
BTW, My son asked me the other day if there were any rap artists who sang about caring for their children or something uplifting and positive like that. I said probably, but I they might be too busy to become famous. Does anyone know of any?
(I don’t think my son actually even likes rap music, he just doesn’t want to be sad, thinking that everybody in it is completely raunchy.)
There is Christian rap. My wife just started gigging with a country band. Two weeks ago we were setting up the stage and one of the bartenders decided to get up and entertain the crowd by rapping. He actually had moral lyrics, but there just ain’t a market for long-haired white rappers talking about how much they love their families.
How about “Pants on the Ground” It is hilarious!
Will Smith has been a real schmuck since obama was elected, but he had a good one in 1998 with Just The Two Of Us
“...My son asked me the other day if there were any rap artists who sang about caring for their children or something uplifting..”
Will Smith has a re-worded song, “Just the Two of Us.” That is about his love for his son. It’s a very good song with an uplifting message. Will Smith does his conventional rapping... he does a great job... This is the same man who sang “Parents Just Don’t Understand” and was the star of “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.”
It’s the only one I know of... But I’m no expert.

Lil’ Rodi’ (I think that’s how you spell it) did a concert at my youth church a few months ago.
There’s more out there, you just have to look for them.
