No lie I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing and it's a country ringtone and I look at my phone it's 230 my buddy is sitting on the couch playing this song nobody called me
"Why does everybody I know die?" after burying 8 friends this hits hard as if the entire ocean fell on top of my head. rest easy brothers, have the beers waiting for me when I see you again. Ill see yall down the line
Keeps happening to me just found out about someone I wanted to apologize to, i been thinking about it for the last week or 2 and I randomly talked to another person wondering where we met, and they mentioned maybe the person i wanted to apologize to, they died months ago. Rough man, it's fuckin rough
I’m from Sutton in London but I live in Kent now and this music reminds me of my friends that I have lost that would be most of them to heroin and I miss them everyday as I am doing well for myself now but missing my friends is a bitter pill
if yous all could do me one small favor, my appreciation would be beyond words; never stop doin what you're doin. I cannae express the depths to which your music has affected me. cheers, and luck in life
it's almost like you found an ancient runestone with the lost art of music on it and your songs are the result of touching it. You are a modern day Hank Williams.
For every dirty faced grainer porch I've sat on waiting out the cold night to get to the next yard, the next lonely spur line. For every Freddy I've watched flashing in the night from the bushes wondering if there was a ride on that steel beast. For every train I've hopped these last ten lonely years of wonderful wondering you two bring it all back to me. Never stop making music and I'll see you down the line.
@Joe Janedoe shut up Joe.. i have hitched and hopped across many states.. but i must say riding the rails was the most peaceful and stressful, I remember getting dropped off out in the middle of know where and waiting 3 days in the hot car till thankfully the car got picked up again.. same with hitching, some trucker dropped me off at a closed dinner and i had to walk damn near 40 miles over a few day to get back to the main highway..
But that life will sure make you grow old faster. I haven't hopped in a few years, gonna keep travelling though, Im just gonna do it by vehicle. That pack weighs on your bones the older you get, I did eight years military with a pack and several years hopping with a pack. I got sick of wearing a damn pack lol
Okay this is so Crazy!! These Two along with one other guy came to my liquor store back in 2013 or 2012 and bought a Fifth of Dickel Whiskey. They were driving an old, small Hatchback Car. This liquor store was in the middle of nowhere in the Hills of Arkansas. What a small world!
In the hospital for an intentional overdose right now, and though I know it's a lot to share on here I want you to know that you two are the reason for my clean living. You're inspiring beyond words, please keep up the fantastic work. @gemsonvhs
So glad that you guys are still recording. Ive been listening for about a year now, and just started covering your songs too. There is something magical about this band. Not a lot of music moves me emotionally anymore, but this, this shit curls up in my soul. Sending love from Iowa~
That actually looks like an OWB holster to me. Just for a lefty; I had a similar one for my ruger wrangler. Outside the waistband is WAY easier with those longer pistols lol
And your chest is caving in, feels like all of your sadness is burled*. Deep in your lungs, and you're standing bent like a willow. And a friend once said that, "I'll always see you tomorrow-o-oh." But tomorrow's gone, and we're face to face in the snow. And O'dea, why does everybody I know die? And O'dea, when you're feeling lonesome so am I. And O'dea, I will bid you farewell if you oblige, but I will never say goodbye. I'll see you on down the line. And I look in your eyes, and I begin to see through-oo. That, burning flame that binds the darkness inside, you. And I seen myself in the darkness, swallowed by a sea, of blue. And then ya turn your head, and yer face meets someone new. And O'dea, why does everybody I know die? And O'dea, when you're feeling lonesome so am I. And O'dea, I will bid you farewell if you oblige, but I will never say goodbye. I'll see you on down the line. And ohhhhhhhh-o. And ohhhhhh-ohhh-o. And ohhh-ohhhh-ohhh-oh! And oh O'dea, why does everybody I know die? And oh O'dea, when you're feeling lonesome so am I. And ohh O'dea, I will bid you farewell if you oblige, but I will never say goodbye. I'll see you on down the line. -Benjamin Todd Flippo
Chill guys, honestly I learned what a burl was because of this thread. I seen them all the time on trees, just never knew what they were! And trust me he wasn't kidding @Goat, the grain patterns are beautiful. But it's a burl that looks deformed on the side of the tree, I really think both words work though. Burled, burrowed same meaning in the context Ben was using it. Anyways like Goat said lets have a good one.
I'm fine if he wants to disgaree. I am not the one cussing and taking offense to the disagreement of one word. Burl: a rounded knotty outgrowth on a tree, giving an attractive figure when polished and used especially for handcrafted objects and veneers. -or a small knot in wood or cloth. -Wartlike. Burrow: A hole hole or tunnel especially as a dwelling. A chest caving in would not feel like an outgrowth. It is caving into his chest and the sadness burrows "deep in your lung". Caving in and an outgrowth are total oppostites and do no coincide in anyway. Yet I do agree that burl would work in this context. But quite strange to hear him say that he knows burl is not the definite lyric yet says I need to expand my vocab as of it is correct. A quick quote: "First of all burrows are in the ground". C'mon, take your own advice bud. There is no requirement that a hole has to be in the ground for it to be a burrow. You can burrow into many things, does not have to be soil or ground. You can burrow into your bed or blanket, etc.
Beautiful , but hard to listen to sometimes. Here in the heart of West Virginia we have been hit very hard by the opioid epidemic. I've lost so many good friends, a brother, and nearly lost myself somewhere along the way. Many would say they were junkies, trash, deserving of their fate. It is hard for most average Americans to imagine the lack of opportunity, crushing poverty, and despair we live with here every day. These days I don't have much to smile about, not many reasons to be happy... but your music touches my soul in a way that I simply cannot explain, so if either of you ever happen to read this I just wanted to say thank you. Please never stop making this beautiful music, and Ben please don't go down that same road to ruin where so many I have dearly loved tread the final steps to their deaths. This music is special, and you two make more of a difference in this cold dreary world than you could ever know.
Same here. Born in Tyler county and living in Marion (Fairmont). People don't understand what it's like here. The sting of the friends I've lost along the way is something the average American couldn't even fathom. Benny Tod encapsulates it with every note he plays. He's definitely my favorite songwriter.
Absolutely love how sometimes, and it may be meaningful I'm not sure, incorporates almost the sound of train whistles into his singing when he holds notes. In the chorus of this song he does it just about every time almost mocking the sounds of different train whistles before he says I'll see you on down the line. I have always been strangely moved by the sounds of old steam trains. One of the trains they use at Dollywood especially with its long and somber bellows on cold nights. It's almost an iconic sound of the mountains and travelers. So sad yet so enchanting.
Just found these two like 2 months ago, I'm totally in love with their music.. there's not a single mediocre song whatsoever, cause it's all really from the heart, you can tell. I'm happy I found them!
I discovered this group by accident, then he mentioned Jason Odeo and Intuitive Compass. I too am from the same small town as intuitive compass, and I've had the privilege to get to know them and their music very well, and to anyone who is not familiar with them, do yourself a favor and become so. Lost Dog Street Band, keep it up.
These two were born in the wrong era, but i couldn't be happier that they were born in this age, where I can instantly access their music at any given time. Love you guys.
This song hits me in such a special spot. So many friends have passed to drugs and stupid shit, but I also know a lot of vagabonds that I'll never meet again and I hope they are well, I know odea is still alive as well as I know. But the personal bonds we create with people that last for possibly years only to end without contact are something that keeps me awake at night. Human life is such a fleeting and valuable thing. It's magical and tragic sometimes... But it's so powerful it can create deep canals that create ways of thinking that change the world ✌️
"But the personal bonds we create with people that last for possibly years only to end without contact are something that keeps me awake at night." Hit me hard - in my heart and soul and mind.
I cannot wait to see these folks on October 5th in Nashville, TN at the exit/in... super small venue, super intimate, which is the ONLY way I would want to see Lost Dog. I love you guys. Thank you for the awesome music ya'll put out and getting me through the hard times.
How refreshing to hear a group that writes their songs, plays their own instruments and bares their soul. Impossible not to contrast this duo with the corporate-manufactured abomination known as country-pop music.
One glance at that table and I know these are my people, one listen to this music and I know they sing the soul of the folk and I feel it inside and it feels like home. Never stop.
Still listening to this! Get it on Spotify! Pure true music - no big Corp influence, just true roughin life story music! Thank you guys and Godbless you all!!
This is my best friends family's original surname(we're fellow Wisconsinites as well), He's my brother, we've spent many of times drinking to this song and no matter how far I stray or drift, this song will always make me remember him, I'm always thankful for Benjamin sharing this with us, it's one of the most meaningful songs I've felt in quite some time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Lost Dog Street band ya forman parte de la banda sonora de mi vida. Son los mejores, gooooodd. Gracias por los videos y saludos desde este desgraciado país llamado España.
God these two are American folk treasures in every sense of the word. I really hope these two find tremendous success. Iv seen them stand up for their art and their values, they won't be sold, or bought.
Thank you two for sharing all your music with us. I CANNOT get enough. This music follows an unencumbered direct line to one's soul. And somehow, your videos take it to another level. Keep it coming!
Fine songwriters like ben are able to relate to an emotion in ways others can't. Pain and the acknowledgement of it is relatable to an audience in such a real way, and it makes the music so soothing though its about the heaviest subject matter
Fresh off the drink and out of jail. You guys have inspired me to get my life back together. my family thanx you. Your music has flooded this small Canadian town. keep it up.
I’m from Denver and my best friend from Greeley Co died of an overdose. I found this song randomly after hearing of Seirra Ferrell. I’m still trying to fight this tests but thank you for this song
This song truly deserves more views. I know I'm 2 years late to discover this but I love these guys and was so relieved when I found out they are still making music yo this day.
I know this song is old, but this song hits unbelievably hard, I lost my one of my good friends to suicide, the last time we talked was in the winter and everytime I listen to this song I just can’t stop crying. Thank you for such a masterpiece
love the music, I busked with you in Denver a few years ago, I'd love to do some covers and would greatly appreciate any chords you could put on your website like how some songs have lyrics next to them, I'd greatly appreciate some chords, especially to O sister and Grace's casket
Stay true to your music - regardless of what happens do NOT change anything or for anybody. Original sound like yall's is hard to find. I’m so glad you have it on video for us in Floriday to see.
What do we have to do to make you all a national treasure. The countless lives you've changed....and saved...I'm thanking y'all through tears. You have no idea what your music means to us. Please NEVER stop our lives may depend on it haha
Just found out one of my best friends died. We were always showing eachother folk music we found and he loved you guys ever since I showed him September Doves. This song hits me harder than usual today. So many friends have died, but I'll never forget them. Maybe I'll join them sooner than later.
This song hits home, you are a true artist. Well done man. I've can't stop listening to your guy's stuff in You Tube. Please make an album just you two. No drums, just unplugged. This is American song writing at its best.
Love this band..came across his song using again..really resonated at a depth...most played playlist on my ipod ❤Hoping some day they play in Ireland as would live to see them live 🎵🎶
Glad to know that there are still people out there keeping the hobo lifestyle alive. I'd hate to see it die. Thank you for making such amazing music, and best of wishes from here in Wyoming!
Much love from South as it gets in Ontario Canada. You guys keep the acoutic guitars alive round here. Keep on keepin on we need ya, Chatham, Ontario, Canada.
Absolutely love all the humbleness .. and absolute pure raw talent , if you are ever in the UK you will have a beer and place to crash for sure brother . Keep em coming. Glad you kept on the good fight. Y'all keep it up.
Growing up my grandpa and I would drive around and listen to country music then I grew away from country but now growing to love it again and I wonder what he would say if I showed him this song 😁 wish I could :(
Always welcome in my small country town of cape Breton / nova Scotia Canada . North Sydney !! Only way to get to new found land is by traveling by this part of the world !! Take care .. fr derrick styles hall
I'm drinking Evan William now and I've seen this video several times but didn't notice the pint until now. Cheers! I hope I see y'all on down the line. 💯 Thank you for the listening pleasure.

I wanna thank you for introducing Benjamin tod to me years back, his music had helped me get through seasons of my life. Again very much appreciated.
Me to myself: I'm not singing folk music at 3am today
5 beers later and a joint: Ooooooodea
Same.. Lol it's legit 03h50 here rn
Reading this at 206am what are the odds this gets recommended early in the morning
No lie I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing and it's a country ringtone and I look at my phone it's 230 my buddy is sitting on the couch playing this song nobody called me
Man few beer and a joint make you sing very good hahaha i love it
I can relate lol
There is something special about the Lost Dog Street Band. This is true Americana music. So glad I found you.
Most definitely
When you think of all the sh.. there is out there..I listen to Lost Dog Street Band or Just Ben Todd, and I am all happy!
I hate America, but I love Americana. Does that jive?
*country
@@clintonk1603 it's not country. It's Americana.
"Why does everybody I know die?" after burying 8 friends this hits hard as if the entire ocean fell on top of my head. rest easy brothers, have the beers waiting for me when I see you again. Ill see yall down the line
❤️
You’re a Marine. I know it.
Same here
Keeps happening to me just found out about someone I wanted to apologize to, i been thinking about it for the last week or 2 and I randomly talked to another person wondering where we met, and they mentioned maybe the person i wanted to apologize to, they died months ago. Rough man, it's fuckin rough
My all time favourite band, listen to them on my playlist everyday at work while I'm welding. Big love from Ireland
Where in Ireland you from?
This comment made me so happy. So happy that they are getting the recognition they deserve, far and wide.
I’m from Sutton in London but I live in Kent now and this music reminds me of my friends that I have lost that would be most of them to heroin and I miss them everyday as I am doing well for myself now but missing my friends is a bitter pill
Ever heard of the Pogues?
Keep burnin' those rods fren
if yous all could do me one small favor, my appreciation would be beyond words; never stop doin what you're doin. I cannae express the depths to which your music has affected me. cheers, and luck in life
Joseph Friend YES!!!!!
this comment sums up what we're all thinkin. cheers ladies n gents
a scot listening to southern folk. ive seen it all.
Actually, you'd be surprised how similar some irish/scottish folk music is to american country/southern folk.
Appalachian folk was heavily influenced by scotch irish
it's almost like you found an ancient runestone with the lost art of music on it and your songs are the result of touching it. You are a modern day Hank Williams.

I’d love to be the one to write it. Now we just gota get him on board!!
@@jackflandurs will you collab with me while I make the movie?
Absolutely
He's gonna write his memoire when they stop touring
I probably tear up every time I listen to your music. words cannot express how this music makes me feel.
In the hospital for an intentional overdose right now, and though I know it's a lot to share on here I want you to know that you two are the reason for my clean living. You're inspiring beyond words, please keep up the fantastic work. @gemsonvhs
keep it up bud!

gl but maybe dont get inspiration from a video with alcohol and cigarettes
Luke Elfers keep clean and pray.
you got this buddy. how you doin?
Keep it up pal
So glad that you guys are still recording. Ive been listening for about a year now, and just started covering your songs too. There is something magical about this band. Not a lot of music moves me emotionally anymore, but this, this shit curls up in my soul. Sending love from Iowa~
curls up in my soul...yes that is exactly what it fuckin feels like
If you have any tabs they would help out a lot.
Check out Ben and the late Nicholas Ridout in Spit Shine Street Band
I dig Iowa.
As a former Iowan I feel compelled to always say I used to live in Iowa to Iowans. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.
I'm really a metal head but there is something that I love about these two musicians. Great work!!!!!!!
The fact that he conceal carries a single action army makes me even more of a fan.
So he’s out of jail now?
That actually looks like an OWB holster to me. Just for a lefty; I had a similar one for my ruger wrangler. Outside the waistband is WAY easier with those longer pistols lol

My 2 year old showed me this song. We from Inglewood California
Ego much?
And your chest is caving in, feels like all of your sadness is burled*.
Deep in your lungs, and you're standing bent like a willow.
And a friend once said that, "I'll always see you tomorrow-o-oh."
But tomorrow's gone, and we're face to face in the snow.
And O'dea, why does everybody I know die?
And O'dea, when you're feeling lonesome so am I.
And O'dea, I will bid you farewell if you oblige, but I will never say goodbye.
I'll see you on down the line.
And I look in your eyes, and I begin to see through-oo.
That, burning flame that binds the darkness inside, you.
And I seen myself in the darkness, swallowed by a sea, of blue.
And then ya turn your head, and yer face meets someone new.

Switched it, fixed all the other mistakes. Thanks for letting me know. (I still think it's burrowed but I honestly can't tell.)
It is burrowed. If you chest is caving in, then it is burrowed.

Burl: a rounded knotty outgrowth on a tree, giving an attractive figure when polished and used especially for handcrafted objects and veneers. -or a small knot in wood or cloth. -Wartlike.
Burrow: A hole hole or tunnel especially as a dwelling.
A chest caving in would not feel like an outgrowth. It is caving into his chest and the sadness burrows "deep in your lung".
Caving in and an outgrowth are total oppostites and do no coincide in anyway. Yet I do agree that burl would work in this context.

no big corp influence means no spotify my friend!
God bless the person that turned these 2 onto/teaching them to play their chosen instruments and singing.
love these guys. So good. Don't know why it bothers me. He is always looking up when he sings. I feel like he's looking at something I can't see.
Mr. Green I noticed that too haha
Mr. Green Same here. I like them but always waiting for the howl.
I tend to do that too but it’s usually when I’m recalling a memory that caused me to write the song. ☺️
Hope u never find it or see it either Mr. Green tc God Bless!
He is looking to the gods, and it is obviously working.

You two need to hit Wisconsin soon, please :)
Hell yeah! Menomonie ain't that far from me!!!
So so so so so excited to see them in Morgantown WV this April. Benny Tod is my favorite living songwriter and it's not even close.
Raw honesty at its best. Thanks to the fella who turned me into y'all.
I´m in love with this band. Barefoot surrender aswell.
Rabalder well better check out intuitive compass then
Ayye, Spit Shine too.
You guys should come up to Bethlehem PA, you'd probably like it
Stay true to your music - regardless of what happens do NOT change anything or for anybody. Original sound like yall's is hard to find. I’m so glad you have it on video for us in Floriday to see.
What do we have to do to make you all a national treasure. The countless lives you've changed....and saved...I'm thanking y'all through tears. You have no idea what your music means to us. Please NEVER stop our lives may depend on it haha
literally every song by these ppl gives me chills
Just found out one of my best friends died. We were always showing eachother folk music we found and he loved you guys ever since I showed him September Doves. This song hits me harder than usual today. So many friends have died, but I'll never forget them. Maybe I'll join them sooner than later.
This song hits home, you are a true artist. Well done man. I've can't stop listening to your guy's stuff in You Tube. Please make an album just you two. No drums, just unplugged. This is American song writing at its best.
Their songs should have like 200x the amount of likes they have. hell even more than that
Love this band..came across his song using again..really resonated at a depth...most played playlist on my ipod ❤Hoping some day they play in Ireland as would live to see them live 🎵🎶
Not missing them if they tour again. Especially when back in our home town.
Fucken moved to tears.....yet again.....
finding that head o steam. amazing watching someone come back. keep this going! always welcome on the prairie. bring the pups!
God damn I love these guys
This song breaks my heart and fills my soul with joy at the same time ❤️❤️❤️ Excellent work you two

Glad to know that there are still people out there keeping the hobo lifestyle alive. I'd hate to see it die. Thank you for making such amazing music, and best of wishes from here in Wyoming!
Man I truly can not wait to till I get my chance to see you 2 live you guys are phenomenal.
Listening to his music makes you feel his loss... Makes you feel like you know him personally.

Much love from South as it gets in Ontario Canada. You guys keep the acoutic guitars alive round here. Keep on keepin on we need ya, Chatham, Ontario, Canada.
Absolutely love all the humbleness .. and absolute pure raw talent , if you are ever in the UK you will have a beer and place to crash for sure brother . Keep em coming. Glad you kept on the good fight. Y'all keep it up.
I remember when you released this. Wish this was on Spotify!
just started listening to your music. heard this song for the first time and started to cry through no fault of mine. that's good stuff brother.
This was 1 of the first lost dog street band songs that I loved
Growing up my grandpa and I would drive around and listen to country music then I grew away from country but now growing to love it again and I wonder what he would say if I showed him this song 😁 wish I could :(
Always welcome in my small country town of cape Breton / nova Scotia Canada . North Sydney !! Only way to get to new found land is by traveling by this part of the world !! Take care .. fr derrick styles hall
