awesome awesome song......Jason is amazing!!!

[@jasper_north]

Nobody noticed?????? He skipped a big part of the song.
And if we pass...
...
Well I needed that damn woman...

[@brazenlilhussy5975]

You're not wrong, seeing how long ago this was I'm guessing it was an early draft of the song. Btw..that gasoline lyric..you think he's saying he did or didn't need her? I love how he leaves things open to interpretation (especially in "outfit" "don't tell em you're bigger than Jesus, don't give it away" it could simply mean don't give it away OR don't let them know your secret..(the dad has so much faith in his son and knows how good he is but don't want him to get too big for his boots) great writing.

It’s his damn song. He can do what he wants 😂

[@johnsonjohnnyjohn787]

I know I’m late to the party. My take is given the timing he was still struggling with alcoholism, and it might’ve been a hard lyric for him to sing at the time. Just my thought

[@kevinking4575]

He can write songs....digging all his stuff

[@lorrivhs]

Congrats to Jason on Americana Music song of the year!

[@maartenvisser64]

What song was that ?

[@okrajoe]

Beautiful performance.

[@sheltondk43]

Wow, I didn't realize he had won that. I love his work.

[@DocTatum1]

Biscuits and Jam!

[@5yearsout]

Probably my all-time favorite Isbell lyric is in this song "nobody give a damn about the things I give a damn about".

[@squoonz1992]

There is so many lyrics from him to choose from, hard to find a favorite for me. "I aint really drownin cause I see the beach from here" , is one of my favorites

@Patriot Mann This is crazy, I was listening to Guitar Town from Steve Earle last night with my wife, his line about "2 pack a day habit and a motel tan", reminded me of that AC line, my wife and I had a discussion about that, or more accurately I talked about it while my wife rolled her eyes.

@@squoonz1992 Can't go wrong with that one for sure.

[@johnstca]

Killer guitar!

[@sheltondk43]

My Grandmother used to make chocolate gravy, too. How cool.

[@go1095go1095]

So he sings after eating biscuts and jelly and still sounds this freaking good and its not like he is in a sutdio...He kicks ass....

[@sheltondk43]

Now I want to make some biscuits.

[@craigschaffer828]

It's the Gumby Strap!

[@w.thomason9537]

This song makes me want to leave New Orleans every time I hear it.
