I heard this years ago somehow. I still come back to this. Definitely one of my favourite songs, the intro speech is hilarious 😂 I love this, now and forever.
Can't believe I've just heard this for the first time on Double J, Henry Wagons' Tower of Song. Great tune, how does John make the banjo sound so relevant in this day and age?
Never stay in one place too long Never say your name out loud See, I own this country by night By day I stay underground Throw a dart towards the map Don't get familiar with the local crowd Take a room and pay in cash And dim the lights, draw the blinds and kill the sound It's flooding in the northern states I left while their heads were turned I make it my quick escape * Cause if there's something I have learned: Seek high, don't look so low Tell em you Seek high, don't look so low Tell em you Seek high, don't look so low It's a dead end road 'round here nothing but dead end roads Don't let this goddamn wind Blow up more than dirt around Roll call of faces through my mind All gone with the sound turned down She was hitching down the coast I was driving on a sleepless night Was was she on that lonely road Sleepin rough and travelling light Seek high, don't look so low Seek high, don't look so low Tell em you Seek high, don't look so low Dead end roads round here Dead end roads [gorgeous interlude] Seek high, don't look so low Seek high, don't look so low Seek high, don't look so low It's a dead end road round here Dead end road Dead end road It's a dead end road. * this one I just cannot figure out. I'm not a native speaker, so if someone knows what he sings here, please do correct this!
He's all over man. A quick internet look and you'll find whatever you want. I suggest you start from his beginning. His self-titled album John Butler. Then just follow his discography from there. Enjoy that journey my friend! We are all bound to ramble!

This song helped me get through some tough times years ago. I hope she don't end on that road again.

I've always wanted a lyrics transcription for this song...
Never stay in one place too long
Never say your name out loud
See, I own this country by night
By day I stay underground
Throw a dart towards the map
Don't get familiar with the local crowd
Take a room and pay in cash
And dim the lights, draw the blinds and kill the sound
It's flooding in the northern states
I left while their heads were turned
I make it my quick escape *
Cause if there's something I have learned:
Seek high, don't look so low
Tell em you
Seek high, don't look so low
Tell em you
Seek high, don't look so low
It's a dead end road 'round here nothing but dead end roads
Don't let this goddamn wind
Blow up more than dirt around
Roll call of faces through my mind
All gone with the sound turned down
She was hitching down the coast
I was driving on a sleepless night
Was was she on that lonely road
Sleepin rough and travelling light
Seek high, don't look so low
Seek high, don't look so low
Tell em you
Seek high, don't look so low
Dead end roads round here
Dead end roads
[gorgeous interlude]
Seek high, don't look so low
Seek high, don't look so low
Seek high, don't look so low
It's a dead end road round here
Dead end road
Dead end road
It's a dead end road.

Lovely 😎
Do they have any albums released together or anything?
I'd like to have some of that...
Can this be a single. With the singing into your chin part too
Anyone know what jeff lang has tuned to on this?
The songs in G so I'm guessing he's tuned to an open G. Not sure what fret he has the capo on .. looks like the 5th fret I think.
where can i buy a cd from john? i dont want no downloads!
