About the first interracial couple in a more ‘traditional’ southern town (aka – racist). This song discusses the turmoil this couple causes for the simple town folk. Everyone from their families to the town government are having problems with this couple, but they don’t care. They flaunt their relationship to the world because they know that their love is more important and stronger than any amount of racism.
