Lyrically one of the best county music songs out there. It's so hard to find songs that don't talk about Saturday nights on a tailgate. This is country music at it's purest version.
One of the finest.
I would argue that it’s the greatest country song ever. So much story telling, written by one man. Just so damn good. Certainly my favorite song ever from any genre.
God Bless Evan Felker & The Turnpike Troubadours!!!
This and The Funeral. Felker's gift for painting such a vivid picture with so few lines of verse never ceases to amaze me.
@@I_SupaNova Felker's great! The band is too, but his songwriting really makes this band stand out. Sobriety and a baby girl will be good for his career, just like both did for Jason Isbell.
Real country music isn't dead. It just lives in Texas and Oklahoma.
Chance Hammar totally agree, Nashville is all about money and white people hip hop now
This southeast okla boy agrees 100%....Durant ok!
Real country music is everywhere all over the South.
Chance Hammar yes yes it does
Oklahoma Red Dirt and Texas Song Writer, the only True Country left. To hell with Nashville and it's canned spam tractor rap and pop country.
Who's here to celebrate the return of the boys? Long Live the Turnpike Troubadours!
"this is song about bird hunting in in southeastern Oklahoma". only on the surface! such a deep song.
4:33 is probably one of the best parts in country music. Gets me every time.
A-fkn-men to that brother!
That fiddle is boss. Go on to hell honey I’m heading home!
I’ve listened to this song for years and that part stills give me goosebumps every time. Truly miss this band.
Top fucking notch brother. One of the greatest moments I’ve ever experienced live.
I love the line "I was beginning to deal with it ending." Thats such a different and cool way to explain the process of heartache.
Turnpike has never made a bad song... Every single one is great
backroadaggie15 truer words have never been spoken
Yes sir drop some prayers for evan brah
Any song about quail hunting with a Belgian Browning is pure gold! This speaks to me like none other...
My uncle, Dr. John has about 4 or 5 of them if I remember correctly. A couple of twelves, I think 2 twenties & a sixteen. He wouldn't let us use 'em. We had to settle for his Remington's, Ithicas & Mossbergs.
@@BlindWillieJackson I have my dad's 1200 field grade, my son has his auto 5. We wouldn't trade these for all the gold in the world. When I swing it to my shoulder the smell of Hopps #9 makes me miss him terribly.
@@captaincoalpile1755 Your comment took me back to being a kid. I used to gawk over my dads guns. Looking back, none of em were Auto 5s, but buddy, that Hopps #9... I can smell it right now and feel it on my finger tips after grabbing all over my dads guns. I imagine he was frustrated with me at the time because I'm sure he had to wipe his guns down constantly from my little paws always touching them.
@@chadbrantley839
The 1200 he bought by cutting and selling firewood on the weekends when I was a boy. The A5 he bought as collateral on a loan when I was a teenager that was given up for the money. It's a gorgeous gun but the sentimental value isn't as much.
Captain Coalpile that’s Hopps #9 does have a very distinctive smell. I can definitely see how that would stick with you. I feel ya man
This song speaks to me like none other. It's been a go to for the past 8 months. Those who don't know what it's like to rebuild your life speck by speck, piece by piece after a breakup will just not understand how special it is. I truly hope Evan pulls through and continues to make music. He can't possibly know how their music has saved so many souls. Including mine.
You're exactly right my friend. I mean tiny little speck by tiny little speck. Had to do it a couple years ago. At least that's when the reassembly process began. "You go to Hell honey! I'm headed home"!!!!
Its great to read and hear tte soulful feelings and the true support for Evan
True Country is hard to find but Evan and these guys are Living proof it is alive and Well ! Being a bunch older than these folks it is good for my ol soul to listen and feel the truth rolll out Great post Great song ....at73 ... ol man way down in tx ....
POV: Turnpike just announced they’re back today, so you’re going through and watching all their videos again
That fiddle though. Give me chills.
The unsung hero, Kyle Nix.
Nixy is so bad add!
I honestly can't think of another current band that's more talented than this one❤️
Not necessarily a band per se but please tell me you know about Jason Isbell. Dude is the best songwriter right now!
Justin: Find Hayes Carll quickly. You are on the right track.
People love to argue. I love to bring people together. I don’t care who is better in someone’s mind, my only goal is that my one and only child (son) has music and writers who tell the stories from a perspective that his dad grew up with because I, much like this song, married that girl; married her family and, other than his grandparents (my parents) still being alive and him being the sole heir to 100 acres of rural, gorgeous Missouri backwoods land, he will have no friends or family to go on back home to Stone County too.
(If any of you love the mountains and want to see the most gorgeous places the United States has to offer, check out Stone County...it’s about an hour from Oklahoma but a world away in beauty... and I love Oklahoma!)
For pictures sake just look at Dogwood Canyon. That isn’t a magical place that was manmade or the only place like it. That’s standard ground along any creek down there.
They’re definitely in the upper echelon. When you get to that level, it’s all opinion on who is better. Evan Felker’s writing is superb and the musicianship of the band is right there with him.
Whiskey Myers
whiskey myers and or old crow med show
This song is so good it's ridiculous. Love the story. Love the music especially the fiddle playing. Just an awesome work of art. It amazes me how this band could only be heard in the Southwest and on Satellite Radio.
Outlaw Country on satellite radio is worth my subscription price all by itself.
When you get a group of guys who understand country music, and one (or 2) of them that can write songs, you get the Turnpike Troubadours, and we're all better for it.
Everyone has been in a place where you’re just trying to forget someone so you do something familiar with people you love, and despite your best efforts the memory still manages to creep up on you and it’s like “damn.”
Zero shame admitting I wept while singing along during their comeback at Jackalope Jamboree June 2022. My all time favorites guys @turnpiketroubadours
Heck I cry during many of their songs. Their music goes all the way to my soul. ❤
I would’ve LOVED to be at Cain’s Ballroom on April 8, 2022…their return from a 3-yr absence!
How in the holy hell can there be folks disliking this? This band is flippin amazing.
It’s Miranda making a bunch of fake accounts 😂
Best song ever maybe one day I'll be able to listen to it without shedding a tear for all my old dogs if I'd known 40 years ago what I know now I'd have gotten 2 more bird dogs and stayed single
The fiddle player is killer
kyle is a great fiddle player I got to meet Sunday.
That opening fiddle part gets you on your feet immediately.
brad metcalf his name is Kyle I met the whole band in 16
You should see Ryan Bingham s fiddle player
Yup
"Go on to hell honey, I'm headed home!"
Yep, nothing but a song about bird hunting :)
it really is. when you go hunting with your buddies, you talk about just about anything until that covey of quail pop up
here, here
The woman destroyed his life and he’s trying to reconnect with the pieces of his prior life that defined who he is. It’s a great song and it’s written so well.
Birds are birches too brother lmao
Damn I miss Evan and the band. :(
They will be back... Faith
They are back!
They’re back!!!
This is the greatest song ever
Best waltz ever written....suck it, Tchaikovsky.
This is my all time favorite Turnpike song. Definition of country music!
Keep it up guys, never change!
One of the best songs from one of the best country bands. Period.
holy FUCK i cannot wait to see them live again. i would eat glass for it.
I love this song. This is one of the best groups of all time, whether time realizes it yet or not.
I’m telling you ! There is no sweeter sound than that waltzing fiddle !!!
Lyrics to song are just amazing !!!! I can’t get enough of this one ...just wow !! Also one of my favorite noises.... people cheering while fiddle is getting it !!!!! That’s just surreal to a musician !!Right afterthe 4th of July, listen to the audience
This band is the real deal. Every song, every album, every live show. Chills everytime I hear him say: should be home on the fourth of July. Que the fiddle...
" HOW GOOD DOES IT FEEL ? WE BELONG In THESE HILLS."
If you grew up bird hunting like I did, this song rings true. It took a bird hunter to get it all right. Props and much respect Guys!
I think Mark Volk will agree, Bird Hunter or not, it takes someone who "belonged to these hills" to understand the context in which Evan so cleverly paints the picture that many of us country folk find ourselves in when we marry that city girl and her city family. My wife and I have been married 9 wonderful years and have 1 son who is four now...so I haven't had her tell me to leave KC and to head on out to rural Clay County too many times, but I do have an internal struggle with our son being raised a city kid. He belongs to that farm too. I just hope he spends enough time out there with my parents to understand that he is different than his city kid friends.I will say that he has already caught on that Dad isn't quite like his uncles or his little neighbor friends dad's. Heck, my wife thinks I have an accent, but I think it has to do with saying things like "dodged a bullet" and other sayings that you don't learn growing up in a city, whether it be Tulsa or KC.
Hell ya brother
We just saw them at a sold out concert at Red Rocks in Denver. The fiddler burned the hair off one of is bow's... They rocked the place it was great!!!!!
I thought country music died with Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash. Turnpike Troubadours is one the few bands that give me hope.
Truly saving country music
McMurtry-that's all I needed to hear, haha. Turnpike Troubadours kick ass!
guys are fucking awesome
This is my favorite band of all time
The F*cking Jam. Love this song.
Best band most don't know
Can't get enough turnpike
The fact that they know the difference between a browning and a Belgium made browning is something in itself. Those who’ve held a Belgium made browning will know what I’m talking about.
Sweet Jesus!! I love Evans voice!!! Sweet song writer!! This sweet new Daddy has slayed us with his fantastic music!!!
I’m new to Turnpike and they are exactly what I’ve been looking for in REAL COUNTRY music!! This song sounds a lot like 80s Alabama
Turnpike is my favorite band and I miss them a whole lot. If you love them too you need to listen to Flatland Calvary, a young band from Texas. Their style is similar and their music and story telling is easy on the ears and heavy on the heart.
Yes sir
Two years late, but turnpike is back together. Both they and Flatland Calvary played at Greenville country music fest. Great bands to see live
I miss the troubadours! I just read that Evan is doing great so I am hopeful of a return. Best red dirt band in my opinion!
Had me at Belgium Made Browning LoL
words and music blended to perfection!! These boys got it going on.
Probably the only time Belgian made Browning ever been a lyric in a song, love that shit
Come to Los Angeles! i would pay all my money to see them live
THEY'RE BACK!
Great lyrics and amazing band. This song captured so many of my life experiences. Loved seeing the guy on electric guitar sing along with no mike.
really wish these guys would come out east to Mississippi...
Eastern KY too!!
Alabama!
when the fiddle drops in at 4:34 🔥
They rock....
Please come to Scotland !
Amazing.
All i can say
Well the covey took wing
Shotguns a-singing
A pointing dog down in the old logging road
And Danny got three and looked back a-grinning
I fumbled around and I tried to reload
The country was cold with the sun westward sinking
It's good to be back in this place
With my hands around a Belgian made Browning
My mind on the lines of her face
Well now Danny's my buddy
We grew up like family
Hunted this timber before we could drive
And the old English Pointer, he once belonged to me
But I give him up when i moved in '05
Off with a girl
Off to the city
Off on a wing and a chance
Hell, I thought it'd play out just like some story
We fell in love at a rodeo dance
[Chorus]
She said go on back to Cherokee County
Won't you crawl back with nothing but a razor and a comb
Babe, If you need me I'll be where you found me
Go on to hell, honey, I'm headed home
Dan says, "Look at ol' Jim
A dozen Decembers behind him no worse for the wear
And your time spent in Tulsa did not help your shooting
And look at the gray in your hair
How good does it feel?
You belong in these hills
It's best that you let it all end
If you'd married that girl, you'd have married her family
You dodged a bullet my friend"
[Chorus]
Ah, and I was beginning to deal with it ending
The old dog had pointed while part of me died
And a flutter of feathers
Then a shotgun to shoulder
I thought of the Fourth of July
She'll be home on the Fourth of July
I bet we'll dance on the Fourth of July
[Pre-Chorus]
Dan says, "Hell of a shot, looks like you still got it
That's what we came here to do
Well, it's light enough still, at the foot of the hill
We could kick up a single or two"
I guess I’m the only one who duck hunts with a Belgium Browning lol
I wish we still had enough birds to hunt in Arkansas. Dad always used a Belgium made Browning and we always had liver spotted English pointers. I so miss the time that has gone by...
Death Dealer D2 recreate it for your son and tell stories of your father so he may grow with those memories of you.
@@bernieee12 I do, and I share pictures of days gone by and tell stories so that they may be passed down
It’s never gets old!
My god these guys are greatness. I hear them and I think of The Band.
My loves!! Loving you all from Maine!!!
These boys got this Appalachian girl! Bringing the roots of our old back
Come to Canada!!!!
absolutely amazing song............I can relate to the Belgium made browning and love but lost
best song yet,, wish they would come out west
Come to Tulsa, they play quite often!
This so good!
hermosa musica, amo a Texas y su musica
Well, I didn't think my opinion of these guys could get any higher, but the nod to McMurtry did it ;)
we live in amazing times these bands are the best
In love with Turnpike !!! Xxxxooo
Hot damn, this is a great song!!!
God bless the turnpike troubadours
Songwriting perfection.
excellent song.
I love you Tracy and your new baby Evangeline!! Love you all to the Max!!!
thanks Evan
i love the fiddle hack that starts this song.
Hey pale rider we listen to this band in Canada too. Every song is fantastic ! Cant wait to see them live !
The greatest band of all times !
So glad there all doing well and playing, turn it up TRUE
Hope all is good and please get back to us !
Love the fiddle playing
If John Steinbeck wrote folk songs...
Welcome back Kings
Nice Acro, Gabe! They are hard to beat. No pun intended.
So good
Do a lot of thinking while out walking the fields and back roads, including old loves, lost loves, missed loves, I get it.

Best band in the world.,
Should I get a beretta silver pigeon or a browning. If browning, what model over under

I’m craving Whataburger now. Problem is closest one to here is a thousand miles away.

Damn right. I can too.
