Cody is one of the only guys on the country scene that actually sings real country music. I’m tired of people like Kane Brown and Luke Bryan and Dan and Shay and shitty music like that to be on the country radio. We need more people like this.
You know a good singer songwriter when the live version is just as good as the studio version... This song is an adaption off stories collated from his prison working days; cleverly put together, sung with passion and full of good old country Texas soul.... all the way from England... Birmingham, thanks Cody...
Wow, what a concert. That guy can play like nobody's business. His voice sounds like what we would hear on the CD. There are few artist that have the same voice on CD as in person. Awesome song and great musician.
Heard Cody in concert in Pasadena Texas at the strawberry festival he opened for pat green and i honestly think it should have been the other way around damn good Texas music
FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love this song.. it fits so many things... he is great!! our radio station needs to play it more tho!! 94.9 the outlaw...
I listen to this song at least once a day kind of music right here the Nashville needs again something with little heart and soul little storytelling too not that b******* they got nowadays
Once I had me a woman Everything was goin' my way She thought I had hung the moon And she had an angel's face 'Til one night I pulled in my drive And somethin' was goin' on There was a long bed Ford in my spot That I damn sure didn't own Well, I walked up to the screen door And I heard this awful noise I moved on to the living room and there sat my two boys Well, I said, "Where's mama?" And they both pointed to the bedroom down the hall Now, I ain't ever been a fightin' man But red was all I saw See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out And I know how it feels To stand up for what you think is right Than get knocked off your heels And if murderin' a man who didn't understand Just what she meant to me Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be Well, I wish I had me a picture of what his face looked like When I kicked in my bedroom door and raised my .45 I said, "I ain't the kind to hurt a woman and I hope you understand But somebody's got to die today Son, it looks like you're the man" See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out And I know how it feels To stand up for what you think is right Than get knocked off your heels And if murderin' a man who didn't understand Just what she meant to me Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be, yeah That's what I told that jury That's what I told that judge And I knew there'd be hell to pay if I fulfilled my grudge See I don't mind these prison bars tucked off in these pine trees One thing about that cheatin' woman She won't cheat again on me See brother that I've been down and I've been out And I know how it feels To stand up for what you think is right Than get knocked off your heels And if murderin' a man who didn't understand Just what she meant to me Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be Well, I said if murderin' a man who didn't understand Just what she meant to me Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be Yeah, go ahead and lock me up, boys I'm guilty anyways
Don't put Cody on the same level as George just yet... George is a great singer but I don't believe George writes songs. Cody on the other hand sings and writes songs..AND can play a guitar. just my 2 cents.
Cody is one of the only guys on the country scene that actually sings real country music. I’m tired of people like Kane Brown and Luke Bryan and Dan and Shay and shitty music like that to be on the country radio. We need more people like this.
Damn he's smooth on a 6 string and sings record quality along with it... This man has talent that a lot of today's country artists wish they had
That's why he's not on the radio they don't like real talent
i know I'm quite off topic but do anybody know a good website to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Thomas Roy ehh I would suggest flixportal. you can find it on google =) -thatcher
@Thatcher Keaton Thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) Appreciate it !!
@Thomas Roy glad I could help :)
Cody Johnson is my second to George Strait
Same
True
Agreed!!!
9 years later, and this is still one of the best videos of Cody and his wonderful song.

There is still room for traditional country music in todays market. This proves it.
Still listening during Corona 2020
Heard Cody in concert in Pasadena Texas at the strawberry festival he opened for pat green and i honestly think it should have been the other way around damn good Texas music

Once I had me a woman
Everything was goin' my way
She thought I had hung the moon
And she had an angel's face
'Til one night I pulled in my drive
And somethin' was goin' on
There was a long bed Ford in my spot
That I damn sure didn't own
Well, I walked up to the screen door
And I heard this awful noise
I moved on to the living room and there sat my two boys
Well, I said, "Where's mama?"
And they both pointed to the bedroom down the hall
Now, I ain't ever been a fightin' man
But red was all I saw
See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Than get knocked off your heels
And if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be
Well, I wish I had me a picture of what his face looked like
When I kicked in my bedroom door and raised my .45
I said, "I ain't the kind to hurt a woman and I hope you understand
But somebody's got to die today
Son, it looks like you're the man"
See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Than get knocked off your heels
And if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be, yeah
That's what I told that jury
That's what I told that judge
And I knew there'd be hell to pay if I fulfilled my grudge
See I don't mind these prison bars tucked off in these pine trees
One thing about that cheatin' woman
She won't cheat again on me
See brother that I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Than get knocked off your heels
And if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be
Well, I said if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister, I'm as guilty as can be
Yeah, go ahead and lock me up, boys
I'm guilty anyways
cody trained me at the wynne unit in huntsville
Cody is not the next George Strait. He's the FIRST Cody Johnson.
As someone who is trying to learn some CoJo songs to play he’s a very underrated guitarist
and a year later, he's up for CMA artist of the year!! he's getting the recognition he deserves!
Hell yeah brother
Mitchell Johnson chill brother
Damn.
wow
Does anyone possibly have the ability to tab this version, at least the chords used? I really want to play this!
JUST PERFECT -- NOW COME TO ILLINOIS (IT IS JUST NORTH OF TEXAS!!!I WILL BE IN THE FRONT ROW !
Pretty eyes! :)
does anyone know the tabs to this? love to learn to play it like he does
Anyone know what those verse chords are? The first ones with the hammer one
tuned to drop D, and hes playing D hammer on the 3rd fret A string and open D string. Then its F and G mixed in too.
OMG I can't believe someone just put Luke Bryan and Jason aldean in the same category as Cody Johnson and George Strait! lmao what the heck!!!!????
Rachel Medellin Cody is way better and not one person can get close to George strait
CMFJ!!!!!
Can I cover this ?????
Does anyone know the chords he is playing?
Don't put Cody on the same level as George just yet... George is a great singer but I don't believe George writes songs. Cody on the other hand sings and writes songs..AND can play a guitar. just my 2 cents.
Schedule Bro i agree with you george dont even play the guitar he just stands their like a prop
I'm listening now.. this dude is fucking bad ass. . I wished I had this kinda talent. I'm just plain as can be. I need pasazz like this.. haha.
Hey man do you have a facebook
I loved every part of this video, except the part where he said he has a wife :(
Seriously though, he is just way too talented. Great song!
what is he tuned to
Think drop d half step down.
Ons
It's clear as ever that he killed the guy that was sleeping with his wife... Is it just me?
Sarah Moore killed em' both I think
64 dislikes? Must be FGL fans...
Funny his wife thinks he killed her but I think that he killed the guy she was sleeping with
I think he killed both of them
Speech isn't violent
i like the lyrics alot but sounds too much like ol red by blake. i love shes gone though your a great writer
It sounds nothing like ol red lol
I like the song, but when I hear it, I hear some similarities with Rodeo by Garth Brooks.
USED to be, just another example of how this country has gone to shit.
Cody Johnson this is robin I have done gave up on you you are a player for money
No tattoos yet lol
