Lyrics:
I’m afraid we haven’t met it seems
You could walk away and leave me be
And these city slicks don’t understand
Lord I ain’t the man you think I am
Call the law or let me be
Either way I’ll always be free
Wanted all across the land
Lord I ain’t the man you think I am
I’ve been nice and clean for 90 days
But don’t the poke the wolf inside his cave
I can flip the script with a slight of hand
Lord I ain’t the man you think I am
Call the law or let me be
I’ve got friends inside I’d love to see
Wanted all across the land
Lord I ain’t the man you think I am
I can mind my own and keep the peace
I could work these hands instead of sing
Don’t take my smile for wedding plans
Lord I ain’t the man you think I am
Call the law or let me be
You could give or take eternity
Wanted all across the land
Lord I ain’t the man you think I am

I'm a metal guy, but when Ben puts out a new song that's great day. This man's music has helped me on a personal level more than anyone else's.
Same
Same. His albums were on repeat for months a couple of years ago.
Same. I think he is punk rock as it gets. I love his records. Jason dae west and hill country devil also
@justjesse3640 Absolutely, Hayden is amazing as well. Both of these guys completely changed my perspective on "country". Also like a dude named Arlo Mckinley check him out if you haven't heard him, a good song is bag of pills.
@@algernonsblackwoods5859 is Hayden a singular name or is there a last or first name. Thanks for heads up. I am super wrapped up in this music right now. I'll look up anything you got .
I'm a simple man, I see a new Benjamin Todd video, I click on it.
Same
Same!
Ditto
Every single time! Very few artists possess the ability to NEVER disappoint like he does! 👌
That's right 👌🏻🫡
There's no one else that could have turned me into a country/folk/honky-tonk fan except Benjamin Tod.
Charley Crockett?
Midland?
@@thenewtowncryer oh I love Charly too. But it all started with Benjamin Tod/LDSB so many years ago. I didn't mean I was a new fan 😂
@@thenewtowncryer I don't know who Midland is. I'll check them out.
Red Clay Strays
Long story short years ago he helped me with what seemed like insurmountable depression after loosing my uncle to Pancreatic cancer (firefighter in El Paso for may years- Chris L. Hayes) I have many other avenues of music but I love the road he has been down and though. Sens of calm and love that only comes from hardships. Magic in the words. I lived many places but I remember vividly in KY moving to Alaska and saying goodbye to my family I jammed his so loud all the birds could hear- tears streaming down my face. Keep it up my friend and thank you for sharing you path with us. I've never talked about my uncle online so I guess this might be a treat for you all. Love hard, we never know when our time is up~
I'm drinking 12 year old scotch so I apologize ! Some of my words aren't perfect. GOSH DARN IT! I proofread everything but you know?! Oopsie dasie
Keepin up that outlaw country, man. It's great.
Did you catch Charley Crockett's THE MAN FROM WACO?
Ben Tod looking like he’s been hitting the gym and meal planning
I thought he was looking like a beast too!
Just good ol’ fashion farm work
Even his hat don't fit the same
Staying clean and working hard on his farm. Dude being a role model these day. Super proud of him.
He ain't the man you think he is
Was totallt sober for a year. Even nicotine. Times got tough and i fell off the wagon a bit. Sitting here depressed and feeling lost. Saw this got posted. Dude motivates me. Im waking up tomorrow and starting again. I have to so i can be the best me for my kids but for life this time not a year. See yall down the line
Wishing you all the best. I had twenty-plus years of drinking more than I wanted to, and just snapped out of it one day. The fact that you want to do it means you are going to do it, whether it's this time or the next time. Go easy on yourself and just do the best you can.
Start over as many times as it takes. You're worth the effort! 💪
You've got this buddy we are all rooting for you & mostly your babies are & they need you in your right mind now more than ever. I pray you wake up each day & first call on Jesus Christ to guide you & give you strength & second know that you are an honorable dependable man - 1st for yourself & to that of your beautiful precious little ones. Take care my friend & God Bless You & Your Babies. 🙏❤️🕊️🌺🌻🌼😁🤠😎
“Sober” isnt the end of the war. Its the battle that you fight everyday. Sometimes we win the battle. Sometimes we lose the battle. The important thing is youre still here, so the war isnt over.
thanks for sharing. Youll get there buddy, believe in yourself 👍
This is so different from previous material but it's so damn good! This is true unfiltered country gold.
I came here to say this.
Always loved a good "you better leave me the fuck alone" song.
How does this not have 10 million views, it’s literally the highlight of summer 2024!
“Call the law or let me be/I’ve got friends inside I’d love to see” is one of the hardest lines ever written
Ben I'm 124 days sober today, about to main share for the first time at my home group. Thank you for your experience strength and hope! I never cared for life too much, it's too much blood and not enough guts...
I feel it he helped me to battle a cocaine addiction, I was doing bad for about a year, I still drink heavily but I’m happy to be cleaner then I once was my next step and goal in life is to stop drinking as much, his music touched my soul I haven’t messed with the powder since may 2nd
Keep up the good work ❤
Stay strong brother i just celebrated 7 years back in May life is better on this side of the tracks
I love it! There's honky-tonk artist that are pissed off right now because you just walked in and made something they have been trying to to do for years! lol Love you brother. Well done!
His music has gone down hill. His best songs are behind him. Now he's just a sober narcissist
@@littlebear67 mmkhhaaayyy
@@orthodoxthelastknighthood mmmmkkkkhahahahhahahaaaayyyy means what? Have you paid any attention to who he was, is, and how he paints himself? Cause if he was being truth his music videos would off put a lot of people. So he doesn't. He just messages people like me that his truck is worth over a 100k
@@littlebear67 if you goin that deep we can say that about almost all musicians...just listen a god damn song and stop bitching
My God its like ole Hank has possessed the greatest song writer of our time. This is incredible Ben. Thankyou man.
Hell Yeah!!!! A late night Benjamin Tod drop!!! Perfect way to end the night
What I've always appreciated about your music both Solo and Lost Dog it's helped me face the fears that I'm not alone with my thoughts and feelings and gave me courage to make that first step forward again. Thank you..
Amen
Ben you look great bro I'm proud of you. You're giving people like us hope.
OH shit! What a great surprise! A taste of the honky tonk album!
I’m into Doom Thrash and Speed metal, this has gotten the attention of my Country roots! Awesome song, great sound and awesome voice!!!
Bring this COUNTRY back!
my road to this began with some hick hop, kicked into overdrive in oct after seeing Sturgill live finally and branching out from him. Whitehouse rd, Black Creek, Ballad of 1892.. all got me here. Something tells me i am glad af this was my cherry poppin'. The comment section looks to tell a person he's about to get into deep waters. Good, I know them well and can swim. this independent/non mainstream journey i am on is helping me through deep personal times.. they never seem to end or stop. but there's brighter moments. Thanks Ben!
I click instantly! Hell yea brother!!
Just ordered my first guitar, Ben. Look forward to playing your music. Thanks for everything.
Don't try to change your sound to be popular. Your true music is amazing!
He's not, he is just releasing an Honky Tonk album for fun. He announced it awhile back.
He ain’t trying to do anything. He done it up right.
Him and the guitar an her with the fiddle .doesn’t get any better
This man saved my life. The first song i heard from him was "using again." I heard it 3 days after i started "using again" after 4 years clean. It snapped me back to reality real quick. I love your music Benjamin Tod!
I’m getting Hank Sr vibes off this.
One of the best country singers alive, still dropping new stuff, both solo and with lost dog street band, bangers everytime. Shoutout from your fans in Wyoming! We love what you do!
Glad you living life brother! Thanks for everything!
The one musician that has helped me through so much trauma
Guess old country isn't gone. Steel guitars and fiddles? Classic. Dude could have made millions in 1965-75. Hope he does now.
I laughed out loud when I heard “don’t take my smile for wedding plans!” 😂
You look so damn healthy, Ben!! It has been incredibly inspiring to watch this new chapter unfold for you.
You give so many people hope, myself included.
Real country music is alive and well.
The man's looking healthy af. This album is going to be awesome!
Hank Williams Flavours ❤️ i love it, from France ❤
I wish my best friend was still alive to hear your new music. He passed away in February.
I love his music and I'm not the biggest fan of country. His music is just raw and deep but it's the only country I listen to
You can give or take eternity... Such a cold line. He knows a fight can result in either of their deaths...
I've been listening to Tod since the day the sandwhich shop gave em all you can drink.. ✊🏼 glad you're still going Tod. God bless brother. ✊🏼🇺🇸
That’s the classic country sound to go with his authentic country lyrics. Loved it.
Whatever your journey my friend, I'm fuckin with it
Been a fan along time, your back catalogue last me a lifetime so glad your making music still.. my favourite country artist all time. Everyone who hears me play you asks whos this its great
REAL Country!!
cant wait ...this is real country music!
I gotta say, I love where we have landed after all the years
Love his old music. Love the new music. A superstar in my book.
Amazing writing as always. Tod is top tier
Buy his art. This man has bled himself dry and got it all back more than we can count sheep at night. He deserves every bit of coin. Love seeing my fellow brethren rise above. Pump tunes out. And just straight up exist as a human being. He ain't the man we thought he was. He's more than that.
I remember good times chilling with you at my house in Hendersonville, TN. Good luck and prosperity to you brother. A very talented gentlemen.
First listening! Awfull. In 3 month it will be my favorite song. Love you
You hit that nail on the head haha
Best song writing ever
Reminiscent of Hank. He would have been proud to write a song this good. As should you 😉 Well done,sir.
Still my favorite of all time. Lovin the new stuff Benjamin, keep em coming
Man, Tod just nailed the honky tonk style! Almost old school Bakersfield vibes. Love it and looking fwd to seeing him in Tulsa at the historic Cain’s Ballroom (original home of Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys)! 🤠
Bro , your music helped me a few years ago when my mind was eating at me to Slam again , I heard your music and it kept me stable bro, I love this new music , keep doing your shit big dog , I send my respect from here in East Los Angeles 🇺🇸 ( I hope to see you live one day )
Old school. Great song.
Wow. I am a fellow musician and I have been a fan for quite some time, but this is different. This is amazing. Congratulations.
Hey brother - I really like this song and the ways it differs from your classic efforts of deeply-felt, revealing, and often heart-wrenching poems set against sparse instrumentation. While retaining your inimitable timbre, phrasing, and cadence, this song with its full band sounds to me like something heard during the heyday of the Opry. I could hear this song playing at the Boar’s Nest in an episode guest starring Darrell Waltrip, another of Kentucky’s sons. It is “throwback” in the best of ways and sounds like that “real country” to which so many aspire and often fall short of. Keep it up, man.
Keep going man. You can definitely be one of the greatest country/western musicians of all time.
Just seen him and the lost dog street band in Houston and damn they are amazing live.
I love this song can't get enough
Produced to retain the old sounding vocals. As always phenomenal job all around
Real happy for the dude. Been a fan for years and it's awesome to see him being happy and getting his due
It's been a hot minute since I've actually seen BT in a video and gawt damn, he's looking like a totally different person. Good stuff.
Fuck YES 🙌 My man lookin healthy!! Be proud of all you are accomplishing 🖤 Remember, not all dogs who wander are lost 🖤
Oh my! I love it. Different from his older songs but still a hit. 💜
Brilliant! Very Hank Williams, love it it brother!
benjamin, youre looking great my friend and im so proud of you
Im lovin the traditional sound!! I love how this mans sound evolves with him
Tod is the last real story teller in country music.
Real country music!
releasing the new album on my b day! What a gift BT!!! Thanks bro, 10 years knowing bout ya now, it has been a pleasure and I am excited to see what the new era brings!
Love your music my friend can't wait to hear the new album
Re.ind me of a lost loved one. Wish he was here. That's how these outlaws live but love at the sametime
Rip crazyoutlaw and Chris miss both of you.
god he is good my new favorite song ty ben
Glad people are liking it because it is quite sad for me his new music aint nothing compared to as good all his others projects has been.... and yes you can be 💯 sober and make great music of course
Got that Swingin' Doors sound... Hag would appreciate it, no doubt.
Hell yea brother
OMG, more new music?! You spoil us, Ben!!!
Damn Mr. Todds been working hard and eating right🤘
Love it made me laugh 😊 and I don't laugh much ❤ thank you
Love it Ben!❤️👍🏼
Thanks man, appreciated your sounds for many years now... Like everyone else you've healed me with little pieces of yourself and im thankful for you..
Badass tune for real...
Oh how I've been waiting for music from this man! It's a good day
this song makes me wanna boot scoot n boogie and i ain’t the yeehaw type…although i do have a mini horse. but i damn sure dont wear boots…unless this song is playing 🤣🫶🤠🤎
Honky Tonk Classic. Been following you since Black Heart Rebellion. Thanks for Carrying the flame of Real country and all it entails.
Traditional Bluegrass album next? : )
Love this song so much. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Please never stop growing and being you
Fantastic! So good!
Thank you, Benjamin 🙏🏻🤍
Not your usual, but knowing how hard it must be to make such a mainstream feel to a song you probably originally wrote with just the guitar and wasn't arranged to sound like a 90's to 100. I just seen you a couple months ago up in michigan and loved how you were live. You'll always be one of the best song writers please don't go mainstream..
This is mainstream? It sounds closer to Hank Sr. to me
Nice job as always duder
💜🦅 hell yeah sounds like a drankin song 😂
Love the tune! 🐎🎶🇺🇸❤️🙏
Ben!!! I hopped trains over the border to come see you in nashville 2019 i think
I love your voice!
He speaks from my heart. This man is brilliant.
It's amazing to see how far Ben has come and how fucking healthy he looks.
Thanks man.
This is exactly what I needed.
Love the new vibe.
Absolutely love it. Please come and do some gigs in the UK. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
