And here's some verification of the songwriter's intent, since at his personal site, http://www.darrylworley.com/, it specifically says:

Country artist Darryl Worley is first out of the gate with a record that endorses war with Iraq.

I guess with all the celebrities that are shouting, "No war!" it doesn't surprise me that there are also some shouting, "War!" I just get the heebie-jeebies at *any* celebrities trying to sway public opinion on such an important matter, especially when so few of them are actually informed on the issues.
