Lyrics:
The sun is comin' up and I'm just goin' down
Everywhere I look the world keeps turnin' 'round
Though I said, I never would be satisfied
Oh baby, I lied, I couldn't leave you if I tried
Sometimes I get lost out on this sad old town
And every bridge I cross just turns me upside down
And every stumbling step I take back to your side
It hurts my pride I couldn't leave you if I tried

@mrpoolplayer6379 3 года назад

These were the days & hopefully they will come again, but I doubt it. This is a Country Song & it tells a story. It's not Hip Hop, RAP, Horseshit, Heavy Metal or anything else, but Country. And it will be played for the next few hundred years. The stuff played on Radio today, won't be played again next month & maybe never again, EVER. That speaks volumes about it's real worth... Enjoy a real song, folks, for as long as you can...

I've been listening to this song for 30 years. It doesn't age. It's as good in 2024 as it was when released in 1986. The lyrics, the harmony, the instrumentation, and the people having a good time. Darn it, this is what great country music sounds like, and it's what most so-called country stations rarely play.

Rodney Crowell was never an artist to offer quantity over quality and was a standard who brought the best to the musical community. A top songwriter and a stylist who always made the lyrics tell you in imagery, a story you could see in your mind. And as the story unfolded in the video you would love everything he made, Rodney Crowell is one one of my all time favorites.

@shredder8677 3 года назад

He's very good at that not the greatest but definitely in my top five amongst the likes of guy Clark and john prine

@lh7098 3 года назад

i appreciate the original sounds if country where the women and men could write, and nearly play every instrument. nothing like today's and nothing like barbara mandrell or roy clark. dont get me wrong George Strait is great too but most country entertainers let go of that genre long ago. Miranda Lambert writes, sings, plays more than one instrument. I feel the rest have just been conditioned and left the humble and grass roots of where traditional and classic came from. This new age will never know stuttering mel ( stopped when he sang), haggard, Conway, roy clark, earl thomas conoley, those songs back then had meaning and spoke the truth. i am from texas. you can privately text me if possible. i am not one to give out personal profile. if you dont mind you can give me yours first. thanks.

@willolsen5838 2 года назад

@@lh7098 love your comment and I sure agree, seems the best is in the past where it was real and touching, not made up junk just for another so called hit. I'm 74 and love good music, I'm in Gettysburg area and am constantly sending great stuff to listen to in Pittsburgh. I wanted to be DJ in my early twenties, but never pursued it. I'm a combination kinda of guy, i.e., love good country, good love songs, good rock, good oldies...and great harmony.

My favorite song from a flat out country masterpiece, "Diamonds and Dirt" that I've played hundreds upon hundreds of times and simply never tire of. Rarely are albums this fresh and consistently superb. With 5 country number one hits (a record back in '88), and a grammy, and album tracks that are just as great as the singles. Rodney Crowell at a dizzying peak of genius, and it hasn't aged one bit. A perfect blend of danceable, high energy country, and stark, emotionally complex, deeply intelligent love songs.
