Hey Folks
So this weeks one was fun to make,this is probably one of the best performances I have done so far.
Its one of my favorite songs to sing ,Goddamn Lonely Love by Jason Isbell of The Drive by Truckers.
I went with this song for the Wake Up theme as it has a great line in it that goes "I aint dreaming anymore folks Im waking up! "
Check it out...
"Goddamn Lonely Love"
Jason Isbell
I got green and I got blues
And everyday there's a little less difference between the two
I belly-up and disappear
Well I ain't really drowning 'cause I see the beach from here
And I could take a Greyhound home but when I got there you'd be gone
Along with everything a home is made up of
So I'll take two of what you're having and I'll take all of what you got
To kill this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
Sister, listen to what your daddy says
Don't be ashamed of things that hide behind your dress
Belly-up and arch your back
Well I ain't really falling asleep; I'm fading to black
Y'all could come to me by plane, but that wouldn't be the same
As that old motel room in Texarkana was
So I'll take two of what you're having and I'll take all of what you got
To kill this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
Stop me if you've heard it all before:
A man walks into a bar and leaves before his ashes hit the floor
Stop me if I ever get that far
The sun's a desperate star that burns like every single one before
And I could find another dream,
One that keeps me warm and clean
But I ain't dreamin' anymore, folks, I'm waking up
So I'll take two of what you're having and I'll take everything you got
To kill this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
All I got is this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
All I got is this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
All I got is this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
Man, this song is potent. Powerful poetry and sentiment. You covered it beautifully, brother.
Thanks for the kind words Cabe :)
