It's all about dropping the beat and music you can dance to. I understand why this isn't in the charts, it's because it would be laughable and I'm the biggest "real music" lover there is

    Lyrics:
    Hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Meet me where I land if I slip and fall too far
    Hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    I don't want to come back down to earth
    No, I don't want to come back down to earth
    My heart is growing heavy from the ever-endless hurt
    So I don't want to come back down to earth
    And babe, I know this life will make you cold and leave you mad
    Make you homesick for a home you never had
    Burning out the good with all the bad
    So darling let the charmers leave the room
    They're drowning out the Nashville moon
    I want to learn exactly who you are
    Then hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Find me in the Indian Nation sky
    You can find me in the Indian Nation sky
    When it feels like nothing's real and no one's standing on your side
    Just find me in the Indian Nation sky
    I'd set ablaze the secrets I'd concealed
    I'd set ablaze the secrets we conceal
    If I could make you feel the way you make me feel
    I'd set ablaze the secrets we conceal
    And babe, I know this world will have the wolves outside your door
    Make you leave all that you love to fight a war
    And never tell you what you're dying for
    So, darling, let the charmers leave the room
    Let them have that Nashville moon
    I want to know exactly who you are
    Then hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Just hang me in the Tulsa County stars

    John Moreland has heard enough negative shots at his weight, let's just put out our best wishes that he gets healthy and keeps making great music. Even if he is only known by a few people his words can make a difference to more people than any of those who shame him. I hope the best for him and all those who support him. He is really a beautiful man, if you listen to what he sings, you will see it too, once you drop your judgement on his appearance.

    The first time I heard this man was this morning. He played "You Don't Love Me Enough To Cry" and comments were disabled. Whoa, Fuck! that song blew me away! I listened to it several times and made everyone here check it out. I haven't learned yet if he was the writer but he sang and played it as he owned it. Why have I not heard of this man! Thank you for uploading it!

    I must say, 1. Don't know how I've never heard of him.
    2. I admit, I judged him on his appearance.
    3. I only clicked on a video because of his appearance.
    4. I'm glad I clicked on his video
    5. I think he is absolutely amazing.
    6. He brought a tear to my eye.
    8. I'm humbled yet again. Preconceptions can kiss my ass.
    9. Where have you been all my life John?

    Lyrics.
    Hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Meet me where I land if I slip and fall too far
    Hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    I don't want to come back down to earth
    No, I don't want to come back down to earth
    My heart is growing heavy from the ever-endless hurt
    So I don't want to come back down to earth
    Babe, I know this life will make you cold and leave you mad
    Make you homesick for a home you never had
    Burning out the good with all the bad
    So darling let the charmers leave the room
    They're drowning out the Nashville moon
    I want to learn exactly who you are
    Then hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Find me in the Indian Nation sky
    You can find me in the Indian Nation sky
    When it feels like nothing's real and no one's standing on your side
    Just find me in the Indian Nation sky
    And I'd set ablaze the secrets I concealed
    I'd set ablaze the secrets we conceal
    If I could make you feel the way you make me feel
    I'd set ablaze the secrets we conceal
    Babe, I know this world will have the wolves outside your door
    Make you leave all that you love to fight a war
    And never tell you what you're dying for
    So, darling, let the charmers leave the room
    Let them have that Nashville moon
    I want to know exactly who you are
    Then hang me in the Tulsa County stars
    Just hang me in the Tulsa County stars

      Rencontre moi ou j’atterri si je glisse et tombe trop loin
      Pendez-moi dans les étoiles du comté de Tulsa
      Je n’ai pas envie de retourner sur Terre
      Non, je n’ai pas envie de retourner sur Terre
      Mon cœur est lourd à cause d’une douleur sans fin
      Je n’ai pas envie de retourner sur Terre
      Bébé, Je sais que cette vie te rendra froide et folle
      Te donnera le mal du pays d’un endroit que tu n’as jamais eu
      En brulant le bon avec tout le mal
      Alors chérie laisse les charmeurs quitter la pièce
      Ils noient la lune de Nashville
      Je veux apprendre exactement qui tu es
      Alors pendez-moi dans les étoiles du comté de Tulsa
      Trouve-moi dans le ciel du pays des Indiens
      Tu peux me trouver dans le ciel du pays des Indiens
      Quand tu ressens comme si rien n’était réel et que personne n’est de ton coté
      Viens me trouver dans le ciel du pays des Indiens
      Et j’embrasserais les secrets que j’ai cachés
      J’embrasserais les secrets qu’on a cachés
      Si je pouvais te faire ressentir ce que tu me fait ressentir
      j’embrasserais les secrets que j’ai cachés
      Bébé, Je connais ce monde où il y aura des loups derrière ta porte
      Qui te fera quitter tout ce que tu aimes pour faire une guerre
      Et qui ne te dira jamais pourquoi tu meurs
      Alors, chérie laisse les charmeurs quitter la pièce
      Laisse les avoir cette lune de Nashville
      Je veux savoir exactement qui tu es
      Allez pendez-moi dans les étoiles du comté de Tulsa
      Alors Pendez-moi dans les étoiles du comté de Tulsa

  • @ironrich9928
    @ironrich9928 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I came upon this song one night when I couldn’t sleep. Replaying the last three years of a living nightmare that I have lived. Your voice is my go to. Your voice and your songs help bring me back from despair. My son died three years ago and I found him. I am no longer the same person. I died the minute my son did.....my son had so many secrets that he kept from us but he found his strength and his voice in the minutes before his death. My brother stole something from him at the age of five and when confronted by my sons words in a letter I found after his death. I watched as my parents and sister turned their backs. I heard I can’t believe your doing this.... I just walked away. They told me there was no such things as monsters they lied to me as a child cause there are monsters. They are my family. My family that I thought would do the right thing. They are the real monsters. They are hiding right beneath our noses. I refuse to stay silenced about my son truths. I will fight for justice for my son just the same if he were still alive as I am in his death.
