lyrics
I got a lonesome heart and a restless mind
I do my best just to bide my time
I don't move too fast, it don't suit me well
When you move slow, I guess you're bound to trail
You're bound to trail
So what the hell am I supposed to do
I ain't got no friends, it's sad but true
It's like they found better things to do
I still get drunk and I raise some hell
But all my friends say, fair thee well
So fair thee well
Man, what the hell am I supposed to do
I'd make some plans but they'd all fall through
I'd put up a fight but I'm black and blue
I'm dying to win, but lord I was born to lose
Now it's one step forward and two steps back
A straw away from breaking my back
But I guess that's just the way it goes
All my favorite dives don't feel the same
And I don't know anybody's name
The same smoke-stained walls but it's hard to tell
We were ever here, they hide it well
They hide it well
So what the hell am I supposed to do
This is a wonderful album. It is personal, senitive, and caring. I love to here Sturgill sing, and wish had found him earlier. I thsnk wnku for playing local artists. I lived in Jackson Ky. And know how sad the drugs have made so many hometowns. Keep singing you are great. carolfaulkner
The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'.
Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was. tideracer
A slow drip of Tropicália-infused psychedelia from New Orleans rock outfit Blue Basin: balmy one moment, aggressive the next. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 22, 2022
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
