“Departed” | Lightnin’ Luke | Live from a hotel room in Berlin ⚡️
“Departed” by Lightnin’ Luke, originally recorded on “Unholy Hymns” by The Bridge City Sinners.
Note from Luke: This is a song I wrote for the Sinners as a response to St. James Infirmary, the classic jazz tune that went viral for the band a decade ago and sent us on the journey we’ve been on ever since. While we really appreciate and respect what the song has done for us, we don’t play it anymore, as we prefer to showcase our original songs. “Departed” was written as the antithesis to “St. James,” a more honest take on death than the razzle dazzle depicted in the later. Hope you enjoy my version, thanks so much for your support! ⚡️
“Departed”
When I die don’t you dress me in no flat top fancy shoes
Don’t let those motherfuckers play those goddamn St. James Blues
When I’m departed there won’t be doubt
You can burn my body to the ground
When I’m departed I’m gone
Oh when I die don’t spend your money on no high class fancy clothes
I ain’t got much so what’s the use in spending it all
When I’m departed oh when I’m gone
My heart gone cold my race been run
When I’m departed I’m gone
They say that heaven’s up above, but I don’t know
I drowned my suffered soul in alcohol
They say that hell is down below, and so am I
Waiting for the crimson blood to ooze from my eyes
They say that heaven’s up above, but I don’t know
I drowned my suffered soul in alcohol
They say that hell is down below, and so am I
Waiting for the crimson blood to ooze from my eyes
Oh when I die don’t spend your fleeting time weeping over me
Crying about love that clearly wasn’t meant to be
When I’m departed oh when I go
There won’t be no one left to save my soul
When I’m departed
Dearly departed
So broken hearted
When I’m departed I’m gone

“Poison Angel Girl” Note from Luke: This performance was a few weeks ago when I was opening up for my band @BridgeCitySinners. The song is about struggling with whatever vices ail you, wherher it be alcohol or adrenaline. Special thanks to Kevin Cadaver for grabbing this awesome footage. The audio is pretty raw, captured just from Kevin’s camera. But part of me likes that even better. Thanks, f...

How do you make guitar look so easy 😂
More of this please. It's about time that talent like this was fashionable!
Hell yeah
Hell yeah
When you learn this song man it's a great feeling if and only if you can hit the high notes. I learned it and just made it. Sad thing is no fucker will know it but people who are into music will get the vibe IF you get the high notes and phrasing spot on and not some tuneless talentless cock who just happens to own 10k worth of guitars fckfct
Absolutely incredible
Looking forward to hearing you play back in the states later this year! What guitar are you using? Love the sound!
It looks like a Gretsch Gin Rickey
🎉
Jesus ❤🎉❤
OMG absolutely!!!
So coooool
