      Watch Heart Worn Highways, Waitin Round to Die - Townes Van Zandt...he is the original songwriter...tell me you don't shed a tear watching that video...and I'll call you a liar.

    1:53 - love the feeling of this solo, it’s kind of like a darker, brooding version of a western theme.

    They absolutely killed this cover. The cadence of it blows the original away, IMHO.

    Sometimes I don't even know where this dirty road is taking me
    Sometimes I don't even know the reasons why
    I guess I'll keep on ramblin', lots of booze and lots of gamblin'
    It's easier than just waitin' around to die
    I had a ma, I even had a pa
    He hit her with a belt once cause she cried
    Told him to take care of me, headed back to Tennessee
    It was easier than just waitin' around to die
    I came of age and I met a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
    She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly
    I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine and hopped to train
    Was easier than just waitin' around to die
    A friend said he knew where some easy money was
    We robbed a man and brother did we fly
    They caught up with me, they drug me back to Muskogee
    Four long years waitin' around to die
    Now I'm out of prison, got me a friend at last
    He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie
    His name is morphine, he's the nicest thing I've seen
    Together we're gonna wait around and die
    Together we're gonna wait around and die

    Can't believe theres only 36.7k subscribers and 262k views. Ive gone on a binge and haven't found a single song I don't like, a couple and a half albums so far, some old and new bur I love this one, the guitar and all, should to more with this western sound. I love the blues but this hits deep

  • @smartalek180
    @smartalek180 6 лет назад +6

    Y'know, I agree with them:
    Morphine definitely IS a better friend than codeine.
    (All due respect to Buffy (who wrote it), Janis, and everyone else who covered the song "Cod'ine," as well as to Townes Van Zandt, who wrote this song here, codeine and all.)

    • @metrobytmobile9051
      @metrobytmobile9051 5 лет назад +1

      Nah. Morphine is king. There isnt any kind of come down. It's the cleanest high that you'll ever have. Every other opiate leaves you feeling dopesick.

      Yeah but the song has a feeling of fighting hopelessness to me, denying that since of waiting around to die. A man rambles is one who is headed away from the problem of stagnation, the problem of hopelessness.

    @nathanpitman4547 7 лет назад +2

    ugh...my favorite song, a favorite band....but not feeling it....too commercial...plus the "metabolized" the codeine to morphine....not sure how Townes would feel about this version...

    • @nathanpitman4547
      @nathanpitman4547 7 лет назад

      "Townes version"??? Well yeah, he did kinda write the song...about his own life..so maybe he does have just a bit better "version"...smh. There should be NO BACKUP SINGER....or do you just not get what the song is about??? Philosophical unity??? and "no understanding of musics terminology": explains ALOT about your response....lol. If you want to hear a better version try the Be Good Tanyas...yes more than one singer, but done in harmony.... but if you want the BEST version on YT, go find the nasty looking, poorly recorded, black and white Townes Van Zant LIVE version....then you will hear what the song is really about... Again..I love DM3...but this cover...just doesnt do the song justice...

      lol...Im sure you have more errors than that...but that was top on the list...go LEARN something about Townes Van Zant, ignoramus.... I bet DM3 LOVES you being on "their" side.... The world doesnt revolve around you.... and its "you're"...not "your".....and your still wrong...for probably about everything you have said....

    • @MorganMcGinnis

  • @martinluerssen9487
