lyrics

the neighborhood is quiet there's nobody out tonight
I can't help but feel like I'm on the outside
I'm running down the list of my apologies
if any one I've missed I'm sure you'll remind me

got this bed to myself but it's nothing like I thought it'd be
I didn't know I'd miss you, I never thought you'd really leave

it's time to be moving on I should be past this place
I've got to get on my way
on my way

been living in this car, suitcases and truck stops
try to do what makes us happy 'cause we only get one shot
it's not enough to say we did the best we could
it's not enough to say we did all the things we should

it's time to be moving on I should be past this place
I've got to get on my way
on my way
on my way

I just wanna stretch my legs try my shoes on another street
and wake up, under a different sky

Found Songs Vol. 1

Excellent. You sound so different. A bit Elvis Costello and Elliot Smith in there. An urban album. Great clean sound. Love Holidays. More, please? Roy Greer

J.T.
by Steve Earle & The Dukes

supported by 5 fans who also own “Suitcases and Truck Stops”

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
