Slow Train. Shooter Jennings. . [Chorus]. Slow Ride on a slow train. Gonna get back home and. Tell 'em where I came from. . [Chorus]. . Every night when I close my eyes.
Let's put the O back in country. . Well I'm rollin' like a freight train. Comin' straight at you. Playing hillbilly music like I was born to do. You know that ain't country music you been listenin' to.
O darlin' that satin gown. So beautiful you shut my mouth. No need to read our love aloud. Go on and put those candles out. And gone to me. . Had a feeling since I was three.
The dying day paints a portrait of sadness. Upon this lonely L. A. tear. Have I found a home in this prison of my own. Trapped in a borderline career.
Was it really years ago?. It seems like only yesterday. The last time that I saw. You laugh at me and fly away. . I remember all of the good times. And the songs we used to sing.
Well, you moved out of my apartment. And you moved out of my old town. And my life has remained so lonely. Since you ain't been around. And to think how far I travelled, honey.
If I get too drunk tonight, Jesus gonna drive me home. If I get too drunk tonight, Jesus gonna drive me home. If I get too drunk tonight, Jesus gonna drive me home.
If I get to drunk tonigh, Jesus gonna drive me home. If I get to drunk tonight, Jesus gonna drive me home. If I get to drunk tonight, Jesus gonna drive me home.
Another lifetime lived in a long night. I'm watching the sunrise before I lay down to sleep. Livin' at parties, watching my twenties hittin' my thirties and letting it go.
When I was just a young boy. My daddy came to me. Said, son out in this world. There's alot of things that are gonna make you feel like you're supposed to be.
I got a problem seems I could use your advice. Of all the things I need the most. I went and got myself a brand new vice. Well, the first time that I did it.
The lights in the sky. Tell me that I love you. Tell me that I need you. Lights in the sky. Tell me that I want you. . Gotta have a sense of love. As I watch you from the shadows.
Well, my mama tried to keep me out of trouble. But the devil wouldn't have it that way. Oh boy, pray and stay humble. Were the last words that I heard her say.
I found a letter just yesterday. And what it say I can't disclose. I read that letter and every word that it say. And my heart it just froze. . [Chorus].
As I've been cleaning up around here, I've been thinking about the ten plus years I've spent talking to you every night.. I've got the original microphone from when I used to broadcast from a pirate station. Not way up there where the air is rare, but from the filthy basement with poodles of ooze on the floor..
Time's winding down friends. The witching hour is almost upon us.. I can't tell you how much I'll miss our night rides together.. When I push back from this mike and get out of the old chair with a broken seat, that's when the sadness starts..
The night seems so calm, doesn't it?. As if time is frozen. The city below used to sound like a mechanic motion moving in giant waves. Now, it's silent.
There's a book by an author named Carol S. Pearson from the mid-70s called The Hero Within: Six Archetypes We Live By. Even though it's nearly forty years old, the book still speaks of the journey each of us takes through our lives.
From the center of nowhere. Atop the shoulders of giants. Above the creeping fog of disinformation that clouds the American union. This is Will 'O the Wisp.
When I was just a young boy. My daddy came to me. Said, 'Son out in this world there's a lotta things. That'll make you feel like your supposed to be'.
