JESSAMINE COUNTY, KENTUCKY (WDKY) — A well-known Kentucky-based bluegrass duo is getting lots of attention for a new song.

The Moron Brothers produced a video for their song “Never Take A Knee” and posted it on Facebook just over a week ago. It has already been viewed nearly four million times.

Songwriter Mike Carr, one half of The Moron Brothers, said he wrote the song in response to NFL players kneeling during The National Anthem.

“I watch the news” he said, “and I just felt a lot of people were hungry for something like that. The only way I know to express myself is through song.”

You would think they could come up with a better name.

“Moron Brothers”?

How about “More Brothers”?

Identifying with morons, is that a good marketing ploy?

Nice. Thanks for posting. I’m an audio engineer for a weekend radio talk show here in NorCal, aka The State of Jefferson, I’ll see if I can get the host to play this.

Johnny Cash did this decades ago: “The One On The Right Is On The Left”

Pretty much says it all about entertainers delving into politics

Johnny Cash probably would have supported the kneelers.
