Have You Forgotten (Something On Your Resume)?
Those discombobulated hillbillies throughout the South who've burned their Dixie Chicks CDs with their NASCAR lighters can listen instead to the opportunistic tunes of America's Chickenhawk Crooner, Darryl Worley.
In "Have You Forgotten," the able-bodied Darryl sings, "I've been there with the soldiers/Who've gone away to war." However, unless Darryl's speaking in the Lysistrata sense, this claim doesn't seem to hold water. Darryl's publicist has unexplicably left Darryl's military service off his official website bio:
His interest in songwriting blossomed at Martin Methodist College and The University Of North Alabama. Darryl funded his education by working at the local paper mill, in construction and as a commercial fisherman on the Tennessee River. He also formed his own country band and landed a regular job singing the songs of Merle Haggard, George Jones, Willie Nelson and Dwight Yoakam at the Back Porch Restaurant in Shiloh, Tenn. [Para.] With degree in hand, he went to work as a research biologist in Tuscumbia, Ala., later returning to Hardin County briefly to teach school and sell cars. He next worked in chemical sales for a company in Baton Rouge. Then he formed a partnership with some friends and launched his own chemical-supply business. But all this time, music was tugging at his sleeve.
Maybe Darryl inhaled too much fertilizer while listening to Still in Saigon by Charlie Daniels, and had a faux-traumatic stress disorder (FTSD) flashback.
