Lyrics:
Hand on The Bible lies
Maggots turn to flies
The whole world’s gone to hell
Momma’s back in jail
Just can’t get enough
Think we’ve had too much
Gunfire in the school
Melt down the golden rule
Wear your promise ring
The preacher’s got a thing for me
Keep it to yourself
The whole world’s gone to hell
A snake will crawl the earth to shed its skin to make more room for the poison
And the filthy rich will rob you clean until you raise your voices
The louder one above the rest will call himself a rebel
There's the one you know and there’s the one you don't
But they're still both the devil
Work hard for the man
Spare the rod hell, use your hands
The hate will break you down
You’re the toughest guy in town
Oh say can you see
The nearest pharmacy
A needle to the vein
Might be the thing that’ll kill the pain
Go trade away your soul
You swear the world will never know
That you were even here
How he whispers in your ear...
A snake will crawl the earth to shed its skin to make more room for the poison
And the filthy rich will rob you clean until you raise your voices
The louder one above the rest will call himself the rebel
There's the one you know and there’s the one you don't
But they're still both the devil
As I lay me down
Go on, get behind thee now
A snake will crawl the earth to shed its skin to make more room for the poison
And the filthy rich will rob you clean until you raise your voices
The louder one above the rest will call himself the rebel
There's the one you know and there’s the one you don't
But they're still both the devil

Son of Dad is the best album of 2023.
Just downloaded it, you so right!
it's definitely up there!! John R. Miller also had a super solid release this year, check it out if you like singer songwriter stuff. but yea this guy is 🔥 it's going to be fun watching this guy blow up
I agree ❤😊
💯
I agree, but Rolling Stone magazine ranked it 13 on the top 25 country albums list of 2023.
Most underrated artist of 2023. 2024 he better be on the radio.
f the radio :)
I fully agree. I just discovered him tonight and I'm already a fan.
Anything the radio touches turns to shit.
He won't be.. music is dead.. but underground. Is a WHOLE NEW world! It's very much alive
So fucking good ... I'm happy to be American again
This acoustic solo version was released on Instagram recently and it gave me a feeling I rarely get anymore. I had a sense of experiencing something completely unique and essentially perfect. This man is a true poet. There are so few in the world who can create something like this. It’s humbling to witness.
Truth, brother.. I mentioned on another video earlier that this is the apex of songwriting. The guitar and vocals fall perfectly in time. It’s transcendent.
Fuck .
Blah blah blah..sit .. assume.
@@lam-pu6pq ???
@spyfawkes well said, amen.
Seen this dude live a couple times now.
Having met him, and seen the way he interacts with fans, everything points to him being a really grateful and humble person. I bet he would have taken the time to get to know everyone at each show if he was able.
His music is reason enough to support him, but I’d also rather show up for someone who happens to be a genuinely good person. I’ll show up for Stephen every time.
I would love to meet him... where did you see him at?
We met him after seeing him play last weekend. Totally agree with you.
He's absolutely awesome amazing artist love everything he does
I agree with this %1000. Country is not my favorite genre by any means- but Stephen is one of the few exceptions.
His voice and guitar do something in my brain. I absolutely love it.
maybe because he sounds like Springsteen 🙂- it's in our collective memory chip ..
.
I think it's a stirring in your Soul....... 😉☺️
It's the song/story, the guitar, the voice, and the passion of the man singing from his heart..... Powerful!!
Man brother I feel what your saying.
Same
Just when you thought you had given up on today's music stephen wilson jr pops up and blows you away.Thankyou
Some artist just don’t need a band. This guy is a true gem. His voice and tuning touches my soul…
I think he should release a acoustic version of Son of Dad Album
He will rise above all of these recent pop country boyz! He will be the ultimate GOAT of these times!
Can't. Stop. Listening.
He will be everywhere soon! Guaranteed Rogan stumbles across him and it will be game over
Joe Rogan must have him on
Bert just did
I've lost count of the amount of times I've listened to this now.
Same. I just can't stop. One of the best songs I've ever heard, especially this acoustic version.
This is everything we need as a society right now.
He Just Made Me Like Country Music! No Lie! This Song Gives Me Goosebumps! 👌 Perfect
All his his songs come from his soul not many singers that have lyrics like him.
Incredible acoustic dynamics. Without watching the video, it sounds like a band on a stage, rather than just some guy sitting on an old couch. Well done man!
Every single song on this album is a masterpiece. This album deserves a Grammy.! Cold chills. I think he was channeling Springsteen. Image Stephen and Bruce doing a duet on this song.
Insane songwriting chops. Thank you for taking us back to "when a song meant so much more," Stephen. ❤
OMG !!!!! this guy is straight fukkkn amazing
Man this is THE TRUTH!!! 🔥
Man I have fallen in love with this guy in the last week. Can’t believe I haven’t heard of him until now. Keep doing you
Only a matter of time the world will hear you my friend,keep on keeping on.
I never comment but all his songs hit home for anyone that grew up in the 90 s especially in a small American town like Worcester
Your music is brilliant, love you bro
American Gothic hits hard too in that sense. He is brilliant.
I just discovered him last week. Can't stop listening. His voice, songs and guitarplaying are just beautiful. 🙏🏻♥️
Thought you said divorced for a second lol
Master class I'm just blown away
My favorite artist currently. I can not get enough of Son of Dad. Absurdly good album. Keep doing you, man.
This guy is fucking amazing think he is the best that has ever been man he can sing
I would pay 100$ for an acoustic album
Absolutely.
You have it here for free ...
100% love all his songs more when just him and his guitar
Most underrated artist of the 21st century. 2024’s gonna put him on the radio with a new mansion with marble floors, naked ho’s, his own recording studio to play that same old guitar in.
Wow. I'm staggered. Gobsmacked. All the tones, all by himself. This lifts my heart and my head.
There are 22 songs on the album and no filler. A mix of Springsteen, Sturgill Simpson, Nirvana and more. Deep, affecting songwriting, vocal and instrumentation, beautiful guitar sound. So glad I found Stephen's music. Really great version of the album track.
His whole album is just one fantastic song after another. This is such a high level of song writing that virtually no other 'country' artist is doing. His subject matter transcends the toe-tappin', line-dancing, pain-drinking, baby-done-left-me country fodder on the radio. Nobody does it quite like SW Jr.
What or main stream doing not playing this no offense but your acoustic versions of all your songs out way better than the album
Nur ein Wort.. Gigantisch...
I have evey song by Stephen Wilson Jr I could find saved to my Playlist. He is a once in a lifetime Artist . The Best Singer/ Songwriter in a LONG TIME ❗️He sings from his soul and I can feel his voice touching my heart ♥
Wow I just found this guy. This song was powerfully brilliant.
Sr. perfection in a Jr. song
It’s insane how often I listen to this song
I just did a year in an all male Christian rehab programme. On New years eve we did like an X factor thing, I keep imagining how well this song/performance would have gone down among the lads. 'A needle to the vein, might be the thing that will kill the pain, but dont trade away your soul.' I fucking love this guy. I've had this song on repeat for about a week now. Love from Liverpool, UK.
Absolute killer recording of this song. The album versions are all wonderful but theres something so raw about all of these that just grips me. Well done, Stephen. I'm blessed to know your music.
I feel like this is what the average or under average child, and yes, every ..ok every child out there could be the voice of this song.
Beautiful
This should be the music of this decade
Stunning. That guitar really talks !
Willie, Ben, Neil morphed into one. Amazing sound and killer guitar playing. Keep being you.
Damn ! 😮❤
Unbelievabe story telling
Amazing
This thing you got going is breaking my brain
Graduated High school in 95 in the PNW, nailed it!
Brilliance
Goodness
Absolute truth bomb gem
Stephen I love this version of The Devil.
Props from Seymour.
Best new country artist I've heard in years man Oh man now that's a great country voice! I met Stephen a couple years ago
He is one cool dude 🍻🍻🍻🙏
I sing this song all the time. Love it
Please come back to the UK Stephen if you can !
I absolutely love this
this the best !
I can’t stop listening to this guys music. Incredible lyrics!
Wow 🤯🤯🤯 it's even better acoustic
Where the hell has this guy been hiding. Simply amazing
By far my favorite artist, this song started it off for me.. classic
Best new artist discovery this year and probably for the last several. And there have been some great ones actually. This acoustic performance has a power that's rarely felt. Redemption and destruction, pride and pity, hope and doubt are all so incredibly communicated in the notes, the tone, cadence of guitar and voice. And that big note with that touch of reverb near the end.... felt the universe stand still a moment at that.
I cant get enough of this guy an his energy
Dude is amazing. Best song of the year.
This is awesome I can't stop listening to this man it gives me the Good chills
Just incredible! Incredible incredible.
It’s been YEARS since I’ve discovered a newer artist I like. But I don’t like you, I LOVE you! Serious talent.
This is fantastic.
Seen Stephen live twice now, both times left blown away by him and his guitar. I believe this guy will go places!
Discovered 11/18/24. Now on a search to hear everything you’ve done 🤘
So talented wtf he do at the start never heard that awesome
love this bro. Keep at it.
How am i just hearing about you? This music does something to my soul bro. Bravo.
This man is something else. RAW
Currently making my way through this mans entire music catalog how ive been missing out 😅
Incredible 🤯
Just pure talent!
This is my favorite version of this song. I can't get enough of your music, though. Adore it all. Favorite new artist for me, for sure 💝 God bless
This is ART. What a message! I wish you the best, Mr. Wilson.
Wow... this is awesome. Just discovered your stuff. Can't wait to blast it in my ride.
you brought me to country music Stephen. Thanks for your great and deep harted songs. Greetings from Germany.
I've been playing for decades and can play well but damn I am impressed. This means so much for music in general. Just innovative and raw and real. Bravo
This is a masterpiece 😢❤🎉
Oh my goodness what a great man
this song is incredible and this rendition is by far the best
Cream always rises to the top!
This guy is amazing. Not many like this in all history.. God bless you, Stephen ready to see where this road leads.
I'm floored how good this performance & the whole album it's from is
Honest reaction: Damn boy i tell you what. We need more of this.
So incredibly beautiful
This version of The Devil is so badass! Well played and well sang Stephen! Hope to see more videos like this in the near future! much love from Seymour!
Haunting. Bloody brilliant.
Thunderstorm of a song.
Well, that was incredible
This might be my favorite, it’s hard to pick a favorite with this guy
Your lyrics are incredible.all of it is amazing
Son of the dad is the best album of the decade. This is my all time favourite , second is Billy. I wish I could learn your guitar rhythm. Guitar tab doesn't show enough love. Your music is therapy. I am so happy to have stumbled upon your music.
His talent makes your head swirl..just amazing ❤
Why the fuck did i just find this guy. He is fucking incredible!
