Come for the songs, stay for the songs
Hold On
and the signs aren't clear
as you try to steer
through the terror and the hate and crime
but never once
should you
ever want to die
and after all of the years
you can't put back tears
they jus drain you as you say goodbye
but never once
should you
ever want to die
everything is changing
everything is strange friend
hold on
hold on
oh you better better hold on
love
and so you fashion a whip
for your own back
and we watch you tear yourself apart
how long's it been
since someone said how beautiful
you are
and that great regret
it's not your cross
it's jus somethin you were told was fair
how long's it been
since someone said how beautiful
you are
everything is changing
everything is strange friend
everything is changing
eve...

I wish you could see what my eyes see as the leaves fall down out the sky as the cardinal darts and the robin chirps dark and the gooses honk "hark ye, goodbye" the apples are done on the trees where they hung and gourds of all greatness and moods are nestled in hay yellow fields 'neath persimmon trees this year the signs all read spoons I wish you could see what my eyes see as the summer slips...

The Debate II: The Empire Strikes Back
Weed is the best plant in the world you fake folkie
Please can we get this on spotify.. please...
Ty Jesse! You really are beautiful and truly, Ty for this song! I love your music, and I'll do my very best to hold on. You too Hon! ☮️
Buddy, if you have even an inkling of a sense that your music is especially important in this time and place, it’s probably just because it is. And if you don’t get that sense, okay, just don’t stop what you’re doing.
homie i could have wrotie this simple poppy ass shit on weed basic chord structure but peacer and love dumbass
what the fuck are you talking about bruh
As another dark poet wrote - "Cause fear is strong, & love's for everyone who isnt me..."
the weed doesnt make me a dumbass the adhd does 😭
Damn son if you don't bring it. Flashes of Prine appear but I also see and hear you and I am a fan.
I know I'm an addict but I dont know what to do
AJ Styles is absolutely on fire, singing and playing guitar!!
✌️🩷
Work your fingers to the bone, what do ya get? (It's not a new concept, just a new generation figuring out the same ole shiz...)
Thank you so much for such a melodic and empathetic song. Please keep your beautiful lyrics close to your heart, the world is so beautiful with you in it. Thank you.
"Nothing more certain than death. Nothing more uncertain than the hour". "like birds on a wire, each must take his flight" Carl Sandburg.
my grandma just sent me this, I have won at life
Try playing it at 0.65x speed.
Thanks, I hate it!
Thing is, its psychologically addictive. Do you hippies not believe in therapy all the sudden? t. Doctor
Hey, any chance you actually noticed the lyrics ?
@JanaeSmith any chance you'll go on a walk?
You’re a beautiful man Jesse. Amazing songwriting dude. You’re a star is what I know about you. You lift my heart up man…
Like this if you also thought for a second that it was Danny Duncan from the thumbnail
❤
thx
Yo that was good
I smoke weed before working out
How
@@Shoedenmark i do too i think its subjective. i think it effects people differently
i also have adhd and everyone i know with adhd uses weed tbh and funcrtions like a normal person
Our new Bob Dylan, but better. Love this. The forest really brings it home.
yep, the song is perfect - if an Ed Sheeran would "steal" this song and publish it with the same arrangement (just voice and guitar) it would be #1 worldwide in one day - but it's your song Jesse and all credit to you for this masterpiece .... Thank you from my heart!
You're such an inspirational songwriter, thanks for the art and the reassurance it brings. 💜
Carry On Jesse, "They" didn't like Bob Dylan, John Prine, Johnny Cash, Pete Seegar, and many many others. Why they they even burned Beatle's Records. All the artist mentioned will live forever. "They" died
This song is perfect.
To go from see Arkansas to this is sad. It happened so fast.
Poet, musical genius, stand alone star ⭐️ I’m a big fan❤
finally a song that isn't sugar coated.
❤️🙏
I love this song so much, that it brings tears to my eyes and touches my heart. Thank you Jesse.
I absolutely love this song and Jesse Welles. The ultimate warrior of acoustic folk punk! Keep strong and carry on.
We’re all gonna die because Trump was reelected! 😫
Great work amigo! 👏🫡
Beautiful song
A Sense of Humor will take you a long way . 😁

Thanks jesse
Nature provides- and its provided you - thank you nature.
quitting soon brother
🔥
Your voice and your perspective on the world around you is incredible, brother. The whole world can only benefit from knowing your name.
seeing the background in fall is funny
Thank you for appreciating small living creatures :)
Beautiful
Thanks Jesse. Been following you for several weeks now. Enjoying your stuff. Good to know that someone somewhere is making articulate protest against some of the crap in the world in the footsteps of many artists in the folk tradition. Your sardonic sarcasm is lovely as is the simplicity of the guitar and the effectiveness of your lyrics. Great stuff ...
