Have a Good Life, Then Die

Jeff Daniels sings an original song on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Inspired by an actual event in Daniels' life, when a pedestrian freaked out after almost being hit by Daniels' car when the pedestrian was crossing against the light

[@Mr-Lion]

Damn, I miss this show so freaking much 😢

[@kayturbeville844]

Me too!!!! Late Night Douche Bags!!!!!!

[@rennwolfwolfgangkriegl]

Nothing comes close to the wacky ways of Craig and Geoff. 😊

[@Matches771]

@@rennwolfwolfgangkriegl Facts! Quit Late Night after Craig left. Can't stand the others except maybe Colbert, but it's just not the same anymore...

[@kbrown4ou]

Excellent fingerpicking guitar; excellent singing voice; great songwriting. And, he’s a great actor.

[@billyraybar]

Came here after the Kelly Clarkson episode

[@lonefedora]

Yeah, I figured I’d get some traffic after that.

Same 😂

Same lol

[@silverzales1980]

To bad but good as well. He’s been around a long time and wrote and performed “when my fingers find your strings” about 15 years ago. It’s good he’s being brought into the main limelight now. Check out his rendition at Martin guitar

[@janameehan5771]

A genius of an entertainer.

❤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 this is so humbling to see unknown great songwriters like the incredible Actor Jeff Daniels

[@marlafreeman6108]

I just came home from 2 surgery’s in 2 days and sat down listened to this song. Thanks for the belly laugh. The song was worth the pain😅

[@ChrissidyAbbs]

I hope you’re feeling better

[@helenajussieu3062]

I love Jeff Daniels

[@mentallyguitarded4739]

This should be on the top charts! This so brutal 😂

[@genghiskhan7041]

A talented fellow.

[@jonboy8181]

He’s fantastic.

[@jacobdaniel8239]

Is it ironic that you know celebrities like Jack black for being able to play guitar, yet you dont know an outstanding celebrity guitarist like Jeff Daniels till you reach the confines of TH-cam?

[@lonefedora]

Jack Black has made his musical skills a major part of his career, with his membership in Tenacious D and the movie School of Rock. Mr. Daniels has not done that to the same level.

[@jacobdaniel8239]

@@lonefedora right. The irony lies in how much better Jeff Daniels is lol, Jack is a barre chord kinda guy.

[@R_Euphrates]

​@@jacobdaniel8239 Jack Black has always shined more as a singer and songwriter than as a guitar player, that's why he has KG

[@carrie1]

Jack Black is awesome as is Jeff!!

[@KC-yu4py]

Bravo!

Jeff Daniels and Heywood Banks need to do a duet. They sound so much alike.

Light turned green I pulled ahead
You crossed the street now almost killed you dead
Thank God I quickly hit the breaks
I saved your life for heaven’s sakes
Though any court of law would say
It’s not only right I had the right of wait
You turned my sunshine into rain
When you lost your mine and went insane
Cause through my windshield I could tell
You must have family in the depths of hell
Your eyes were wild, your teeth were bare
Anatomical references fill the air
And you flipped me off
You brought a hardness to my world of soft
There’s nothing I can say or do
To make this wrong or right with you
Have a good life...then die!
I hope it hurts so much it makes you cry
I hope it’s torturous and slow
I hope you know you’re gonna go
Have a good life then die!

[@astralcai]

I think it's right of way

[@wss33]

I think this is more accurate:
You crossed the street AN' I almost killd you dead
I WAS NOT only right I had the right of WAY
When you lost your MIND and went insane
Your eyes were wild, your teeth were bared
And WHEN you flipped me off
To make this wrong ALLRIGHT with you.

[@tamarabartolo9185]

Love....

[@nevillecreativitymentor]

LOL LOL LOL ... ME TOO I came here after Kelly's show ... and NO REGRETS.
This song reminded me of the F'U songg and just loved it .
EVERY TIME this happens to me on a light ... I am going to rermember this.
My new Green Light Anti-Jay Walkers Anthem !!
