    Why is this not more popular????? I don’t understand how Chris Stapleton is such a world renowned voice yet The Steel Drivers go unnoticed????????

    • @THEhandyman247
      @THEhandyman247 Год назад +14

      Mainly because “country music radio” focuses more on what’s popular, hence why chris went solo.

      It's all about the money and who got a contract, who was marketable. It's the industry and who they can make money from. Steeldrivers are relatively well known and did well for themselves in a real successful way. Chris has a really special voice that is one of a kind and he made some good choices with his career.

    Late one night behind corn whiskey
    I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
    I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi
    And the blues came walkin' in like a man
    Without a word I passed that guitar over
    He tuned it up like I'd never seen
    A crooked smile was his expression
    Then he closed his eyes and began to sing
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    When I woke up I looked into the mirror
    I saw no reflection for a while
    But as my eyes came into focus
    I recognized that crooked smile
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Late one night behind corn whiskey
    I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
    I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi
    And the blues came walkin' like a man
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be

To those who say that they are Mississippi River Rats--I am an Ohio River, river rat----I first went on that river before I could walk and boated it on and off for years----till just a few years ago----but I am not done with that river and the rest of the rivers connected with it and the Mighty Mississip….even though for now----the St. Johns and the Ock are "my rivers" being back down here in Florida again....I was on the seas for pretty much four years back when I was in the Coast Guard-----but I always found myself missing rivers---to me----something special about them.

    LYRICS:
    Late one night behind corn whiskey
    I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
    I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi
    And the blues came walkin' in like a man
    Without a word I passed that guitar over
    He tuned it up like I'd never seen
    A crooked smile was his expression
    Then he closed his eyes and began to sing
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    When I woke up I looked into the mirror
    I saw no reflection for a while
    But as my eyes came into focus
    I recognized that crooked smile
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Late one night behind corn whiskey
    I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
    I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi
    And the blues came walkin' like a man
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
    Oh Lord why have you forsaken me
    Got me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be

      Exactly it's basically the idea that you could have many layers to it but the main aspect or reality of it is there is nothing more because you can't sell your soul so you wake up believing that s*** that would have been cooler would have been nice and I mean it was just a drunken nightmare
