More on Hootie (AKA Darius Rucker)

How soon we forget!

Hootie and the Blowfish (Darius Rucker)

In the article below you will read about Hootie and the Blowfish protesting the Confederate flag in SC.

Remember and never forget that Hootie and the Blowfish’s lead singer at that time was none other than Darius Rucker who now is a recording artist in country music. Rucker has had three number one hits this past year (2009). The songs are: “Don’t think I don’t think about it,” “It want be like this for long,” and “Alright.”

Please pass this information on and on we must spread the word and remind people that Rucker is against you’re heritage!

If you are you’re children or grandchildren buy his music you and them are helping make this guy rich! Again please spread the word about Rucker.

He is trying to sneak in under the radar! It won’t work not on my radar gun; I am one who never forgets!!!

Pass it on!!!

Below is the article and the lyrics to Rucker’s hate song

Darius Rucker (now he like us???) as Hootie of Hootie and the Blow Fish in the 1998 album Cracked Rear View lamenting the South Carolina Flag.

Drowning lyrics

Trouble with the world is we’re too busy to think about it, all right
Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls?
Tired of hearin’ this [censored] about heritage not hate
Time to make the world a better place

Why must we hate one another?
Well no matter what we gotta live together
Just that you don’t look like me, tell me what do you see
When we pass on the street what do you wanna see

P.E.’s coming is all I gotta say
Wanna turn and run away
They’re just telling you how they see it
Right or wrong they don’t care, you wish that they would quit

[chorus:]

Drowning in a sea of tears
Hatred trying to hide your fears
Living only for yourself
Hating everybody else
Cause they don’t look like you
Nanci singing it’s a hard life wherever you go
About some fat racist living in Chicago
Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone
Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son?
Why must we hate one another?
When the people in the church, they tell me you’re my brother
You don’t walk like me; you don’t talk like me, saying
Go back to Africa, I just don’t understand

[chorus]

I’m trying to be someone that he could look up to, but
When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see
I’m a man, I’m a man, I’m a man
No I’m not like you
Why do you hate me so
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
Hating everybody else cause they don’t look like you.
