With folkie conscience, country simplicity, and a vagabond’s desire for mischief, Hayes Carll has spent over 20 years including anybody who will listen in an easy conversation about what it is we’re all doing here.
“I like to tug at heartstrings, find commonality with others, reflect on my own life, and sometimes I do it in a lighthearted way,” says Carll while discussing his 8th album You Get It All. “A lot of musical styles found their way onto this record, but my first and most formative influences came from country music. This is a country singer-songwriter record. It’s just unapologetically me.”

lyrics
I bought myself a tall boy and some cigarettes
I’m gonna climb into this old truck and get as far as I can get
Go looking for a motel room, one with an actual key
The old kind I used to find where you pay by the week
Gonna hang a couple pictures above that rotary phone
The one on which I’m not expecting too many calls from home
Gonna find me a movie, one that makes me laugh
Roll around that old TV so I can watch it in the bath
I can’t remember where I had my breakfast
Probably some old run-down diner
In a broken border town
But I ain’t ever going back to Texas
I’ll pay the cost of being lost just to keep from being found
I really like my lawyer
He’s a helluva guy
He spreads the love and he ain’t above
Watching a grown man cry
I don’t have to worry ‘bout whose side he’s on
He’ll be my friend until the end
Or ‘til the money’s all gone
I can’t remember where I had my breakfast
Maybe Southeast Oklahoma
Or some backwoods Arky town
But I ain’t ever going back to Texas
There’s a girl down there in Texas
Who does not want me around
I ain’t ever going back to Texas
I’ll pay the cost of being lost just to keep from being found

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off.
felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery.
thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness

The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'.
Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was. tideracer
