Good lord, im just a few months into Tyler Childers, and things like this convince me that he may just be the finest musician i have heard in my 7 decades…The sheer beauty and authenticity of the mans work is just stunning.
Love just as strong as Lawrence County shine it'll mow you right down it'll make you go blind. I would ruin my life and use up all my pay just to have her tonight, just her and the banks. Her love makes me feel like I'm home. Keeps me good company wherever I go. When I'm smiling, it's her and the banks .
Lyrics [Verse 1] Hair like the sun and eyes just as green As the ridge line we'd walk, scannin' the trees For the wave of a tail, a shake of the leaves Lord, I'd give the whole world for a sight of those things [Verse 2] Hands just as soft as skin on the fruit That breaks down the branch 'neath the bluest of moons Lord, we'd eat 'til we's sick and grab all we could hold Then we'd run through the yard with the fruit that we'd stole [Chorus] And her love makes me feel like I'm home Keeps me good comp'ny wherever I go When I'm smilin', it's her and the banks The Big Sandy River that colors my face [Verse 3] Love just as strong as Lawrence County shine It'll mow you right down, it'll make you go blind I would ruin my life and use up all my pay Just to have her tonight, just her and the banks [Chorus] Her love makes me feel like I'm home Keeps me good comp'ny wherever I go When I'm smilin', it's her and the banks The Big Sandy River that colors my face
“I would ruin my life and use up all of my pay just to have her tonight, just her and the banks” ugh that is so pure and insanely written. He’s a lyrical genius.
The fact you cannot identify if he writes then sings or plays and sings is insane. He cannot write the words he says but he also cannot possibly be so pure in lyrics without writing
Wish the universe made me and him neighbors, and close in age. I would've not seen it, but I would be in the life I want. Just a few hours of cocaine and picking with him would be one of those things that I wouldn't appreciate unless I didn't have it. But not having it, that's a desire from heaven. Tyler if u see this, you'll probably take it as a compliment and not serious, but I am in dept to a few hours of talking and picking with you, harmonizing on a line or two
Just lost my soulmate to cancer... this song makes me think of the river bank where we had our first kiss... ill miss you jayme this world is empty without you
I can’t stand scammers who publish music without authorization and make money from it. Shouldn’t Tyler earn the money from his words, his voice, his performance?
tyler never wanted to have this released, as it was from a previous relationship. so he doesn’t care about the music as it doesn’t pertain to him so he doesn’t post it.
