WTH!

As we were driving down the road about 2 weeks ago, I'm flipping through the radio stations and my daughter starts singing to one of the songs

Sipping whiskey out the bottle,
not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long

I'm thinking WTH!! You are 9 years old!! You can't sing along to a song about whiskey!!

Now, don't get me wrong... I really like this song. I think Kid Rock is a displaced Southerner. I mean, he's from Michigan and he's singing about Sweet Home Alabama. Something is wrong about that. Anyway, I digress.....

I don't think she understands what's she singing, but she is an Alabama girl at heart. It's bad when she knows what it means to stand for the national anthem. (ha! how many of you understand that reference?)

Happy Fourth. Off to see the family, eat some great seafood, and just relax!

But I'm not getting the "stand for the national anthem" reference?

My 3, almost 4, year old loves that song. I don't think he gets the whiskey part. I just told him he can't sing it at church or preschool....

P.S. I am a former Jefferson Co. girl, now living in N.Ala.
