Mr Walker is my all time favorites. I got to meet him in Napa years ago. It was an absolute pleasure! I miss him and his songs and feel he is one who can NEVER be replaced.
This has to be my very favorite JJW song!!!!!! He has so many great songs......but this one just tells my story, like it was JJ who lived it with me!!!!! When a songwriter does that to you... You will never forget it!!!!!! RIP MY DEAR FRIEND!!!!!!!😢✌️🎶
How many times persons have said "You CAIN'T do nothing right" to any one of us... Just keep on keeping on, and that goes for relationships (or STOP all together with them) and do something for yourself. 😁 But this song hurts on the right spots. 😢
Also my favorite Jerry Jeff song... had this on a casette tape that of course jammed... never could find a replacement... Wore that cassette out after one breakup in the late 70's....Thanks Charlie for loading this...
The lamp is broken on the mantle My mind is blown and I'm turning away And It's gettin' more than I can handle And It's gettin' more than I can say CHORUS: So I couldn't stay here if I wanted I couldn't stay here if I tried 'Cause you were always disappointed in me I Guess I could never do nothing right Guess I could never do nothing right Well, I worked hard to make a living To make that good life dream come true But you wanted more than I was giving I guess that's more than I can do So I couldn't stay here if I wanted And I couldn't stay here if I tried 'Cause you were always disappointed in me Guess I could never do nothing right I Guess I could never do nothing right You cut my heart like the cards on the table It seemed like fun for you to keep playin' on Well, I let you in as long as I was able But now all your games have done been run And I couldn't stay here if I wanted I couldn't stay here if I tried 'Cause you were always disappointed in me I Guess I could never do nothing right In your eyes Guess I could never do nothing right
Ive always loved this song my wife used to down me after i heard it so it reminds me of me and also because i was kicked out by two girls in one day after my wife passed
Appreciate your comments Charlie...here's another one...Baroom Roses by Moe Bandy,hundreds of Bandy tracks available,but that one,my favourite only found on RUclips!
He was having some problems: www.savingcountrymusic.com/jerry-jeff-walker-is-recovering-from-throat-cancer/ I see he's got some upcoming shows next month.
Just had who I thought was my girlfriend tell me she met someone else after she said the thing as this song even though all this time she said we were friends it never amounted to more
Have lived this song like so many others. Still my favorite Jerry Jeff song.
thank god I kept all my old vinyl records....

It's not a jerry song doe man, P nunn
@@leroybrown391 Yes, it is a JJW song written by Gary P ..
This guy stated he wore out the cassette listening to it, couldn't find replacement.
Written by Gary P. Nun and Karen Brooks, butt JerryJeff made it his own. His smooth, mellow vocals are un0like any other.
Rest in Peace Jerry...
Thank you Charlie Loved it.
My FAVOURITE Jerry Jeff....but can only access it via RUclips,which is frustrating....but more power to RUclips!
It is one of my fav Jerry Jeff songs, too, graham.......... thanks for watching and commenting........!!!!!!

The lamp is broken on the mantle
My mind is blown and I'm turning away
And It's gettin' more than I can handle
And It's gettin' more than I can say
CHORUS:
So I couldn't stay here if I wanted
I couldn't stay here if I tried
'Cause you were always disappointed in me
I Guess I could never do nothing right
Guess I could never do nothing right
Well, I worked hard to make a living
To make that good life dream come true
But you wanted more than I was giving
I guess that's more than I can do
So I couldn't stay here if I wanted
And I couldn't stay here if I tried
'Cause you were always disappointed in me
Guess I could never do nothing right
I Guess I could never do nothing right
You cut my heart like the cards on the table
It seemed like fun for you to keep playin' on
Well, I let you in as long as I was able
But now all your games have done been run
And I couldn't stay here if I wanted
I couldn't stay here if I tried
'Cause you were always disappointed in me
I Guess I could never do nothing right
In your eyes
Guess I could never do nothing right
clords and liaics

THE best version of this song. And sounds a lot like Emmy Lou Harris on harmony vocals?!
let's hear it for gary p nunn & karen brooks - phenomonous!!
Appreciate your comments Charlie...here's another one...Baroom Roses by Moe Bandy,hundreds of Bandy tracks available,but that one,my favourite only found on RUclips!
Have it on old, homemade cassette tape.... No player...
Heal up Jerry Jeff!
Jerome Aery "Heal up"? Was he injured?
He was having some problems: www.savingcountrymusic.com/jerry-jeff-walker-is-recovering-from-throat-cancer/ I see he's got some upcoming shows next month.

A better and cleaner copy of this. I loved this song and at one time thought I could never hear it again.
Barbara, I'm happy you enjoyed it....... thanks for watching and commenting...........
@Barbara Fultz listen to roseanne cash sing itt
Just had who I thought was my girlfriend tell me she met someone else after she said the thing as this song even though all this time she said we were friends it never amounted to more
This is the third version of this song. Along with DAC and Roseanne Cash. Who wrote it. Karen Brooks?
Karen Brooks
DAC and Karen Brooks do this justice
I’ve heard Karen Brooks do this song this is written by Jerry Jeff
Rosanne Cash's version was amazing....but it does not hold a candle to his song
Flag Decal
2 thumbs down........? Better go sleep it off 😁
