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 - เพลง
Twin fiddles and a steel guitar with a walking bass line and Rodney Crowell what more could you ask for. So well done. An absolute gem.
det här e´ÄKTA COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Country music 🎶 like it should be
Yeah.
👍
❤ When country was country. 👍🏻
Great musicians in this video among Rodney-Steuart Smith on guitar, Hank Devito on pedal steel, Vince Gill/Sam Bush joking around playing twin fiddles
God bless true country music.
and love all of his friends/family having such a grand gathering, out in the 'cross fields part of land' [12 16 2023 Saturday]
Song should be called “Rodney couldn’t write a bad song if he tried”. He’s among the best writers ever.
I thought that was the name of it...he he...
I Agree! He is also one of my favorite singers.
I love Rodney he is great ❣️
I have always loved this guy, he's one of the best singer/songwriters ever. So sorry he and Roseann couldn't make it but that's life. He's so cute here.
I agree he is too good to be true. God bless him for giving us heartfelt songs 🙏
Rodney couldn't write a bad song if he tried.
Listen to this song hundreds of times
Thanks ❤
Every day
Everyday
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...
How rite u r im 70 an totally agree im an Australian fan
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.
A #1 hit for Rodney Crowell on the Country & Western charts. It was the 918th #1 C&W song of the Rock Era.
These were the days when it was country music was still the best ❤
Back when country was country
This is when country music was country
I haven't heard a bad song from him, just a brilliant songwriter and performer.
Country music as it should be. Great band, great steel guitar, great fiddle, great song and above all a wonderful singer
...and a nice mullet
Such great dance music !
From:Canada with all my admiration❤
Aint he the cutest.....
Yes Ma'am! ☺️
I keep listening to this video & cannot getting it out of my head, my favorite of all times.❤❤❤
True Country Music will NEVER die ❤❤❤❤❤ especially songs like this ....
One of the most underrated albums/performers of the late 80's.
Good ole days when Country wasn't rap!!!
You said that!
Agreed it hick hop as I call it, crap country&rap. I'm a metal head, and a professional drummer, but I also grew up country, because my family. Long live the great country music. Outlaw country was my favorite style Waylon, Willie, Hank Jr, that stuff was my favorite, it still is.
This is true country! Love it!!!

so true!!!!!
I agree, I can't stand the HICK HOP crap these days.
Hick Hop!! Lmao. That’s great!
That's what I call country music. Love it. ♥️
Hello 👋 there.....how’s your day going? Hope you fine and staying safe?
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.
He's very good at that not the greatest but definitely in my top five amongst the likes of guy Clark and john prine
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.
@@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.
Do you like Jake Owen - my two favs are Don't think I can't love you and what we ain't got.
You're the only one love ever responded to.
Have a Blessed Day!
My favorite is Rodney....
This song REQUIRES TO BE NUMBER ONE FOREVER ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Rodney! Not just for the like, BUT ALL THE GREAT SONGS!!!!!
Back when country music had meanings and values and sounded like country music is supposed to sound. Awesome job Rodney
BIG AMEN to that
Was just great tunes !
I don't want my country torap
To rap
@Rodney Crowell doing about the same as every day, OK but wishing I was born in 1950 instead of 1969 . I just loved the old time music and the old style farming. I still run my little farm with my grandfather's farmall 200 and my great uncle's old farm equipment.
Canada 🇨🇦♥loves Country 🎶music & this wonderful singer, from Dieppe, n-B, Canada x0x
good old real country right here
Hello Deena
Steuart Smith on the Strat. He's with the Eagles now. What a good song.
Very catchy tune, awesome melody, terrific band. Can't stop listening to the song over and over again. ❤❤❤
What a beautiful song unique voice powerful lyrics how are you Janice ?
ALWAYS LOVE THIS KIND OF COUNTRY MUSIC 👍❤️🏆🙏🎤🎵🎵
Can't get enough of this song. No special memories like the song/music.
Liked when country was country not like today !!hanks to this great one Enjoyed!!
Those still listening in 2024 how about BIG thumbs up. I’ve been a fan of this man and his music since he started.
Take a listen, he has never disappointed me in 30 plus years 😁 … Thank You Rodney
Hi dear🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thanks for your love and support that has brought me this far, it has been a hard time for me going through this but your love and support keeps me going and standing strong in this difficult times. I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all you’ve done for me throughout the years.
It’s a season of love😍❤️❤️ for me and so I decided to put a smile on the faces of my fans by going through my TH-cam channel and checking out on my fans, so I can get to communicate with my fans better through discussion of depth and humor listening to o and criticism of my career.💞💞🙏💖💕💕
Always thought Rodney was SO talented!! ... Thanks for posting!
Cuteness overload and a great voice !
@Rodney Crowell nice meeting you
@Rodney Crowell no sorry
@Rodney Crowell I'll call you
I agree with many of you--I miss this older country sound...the new country really doesn't do it for me :(
You are so right, and I am a country girl at heart
you got that right but look at all the songs he did for Johnny cash
Two steppin all the way! Not like today.
That's why I stopped listening to new music around 2001. If you want to hear good music, you'll have to listen to the old stuff.

This is one Rodney that gets alot of respect and deserves all he gets
Thank you so much for the love ❤️ I appreciate YOU ! I hope you will never stop listening to my music 🎶.. If you don’t mind it will only take a moment kindly drop me your hangouts or email to so I can get in touch with you privately ❤️
I like that song after all this time, makes me think of a woman I still have feelings for 💖💕 the only woman that I ever really loved, but unfortunately she didn't love me as much as I loved her
This is my favorite song of Rodney's....Well done....
@@sarahnewcomb738 it's a good song, but I like "after all this time" better. Brings back memories of a woman I had a relationship with. I still think of her a lot
Great 🎶 singer and drummer 🥁
DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST COUNTRY ALBUMS. THE TRUE SOUND OF COUNTRY IS VERY ALIVE HERE. HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET BACK TO THIS KIND OF QUALITY IN COUNTRY.
Met him in Sheffield, Yorkshire, UK after an amazing gig! Fantastic guy, fantastic music x
classic country music is still alive in my home.
Totally agree, he's the best. I love his songs
Will u ever tour again??
Lively❤PTL Good Morning Have A Nice Day!
Fiddles and steel guitar..... makes me wear out my boots two steppin'. Such a great album.
Wow very,very nice song, my love of my life, I couldn't leave you if I tried. You'll be mine forever
An awesome artist and a very underrated artist!
Underrated by the public....but everybody in the business knows he'sTOPS!
absolutely! very underrated for such talent...
One of the best of the country entertainer's, no doubt in my mind & Rosanne Cash is awesome too.
Country music always sounds absolutely beautiful, when u was born & raised in the country? Nobody could take that away from u! Yes it’s true ,!
You remember this? Long time ago. Lol
Im 62 and new country sucks...please return to real county music like this!
❤Great singer and song!!!!
It's been a long, long life for me and I've loved Rodney the entire time. 💖
My man, that's how I love him.
That's about as catchy a melody as anybody's ever going to write.
It's the best song....
Good Band,great Artist!Song is Steel!😊
I love this country song and the memories I have wow awesome where are you now Rodney crawl miss you
My Mom, 83 and Dad, 92 danced to this song everytime
We just lost my Mama Feb 7th 2022 💔💔💔💔💔
@Rodney Crowell Hello 👋
@Rodney Crowell no
I don't use Google chat. I'll say hello, and communicate, interact here. Thank you though
One of the greatest country song ever.
Rodney's nothing short of a troubadour, pure genius.
Going to see ya tomorrow 😊😂😅 Can't wait Rodney
Love the concert in the street...Well done Rodney....
Nice to meet you.....
Video Ahead of its TIME
One of my favorites! Loved Rodney Crowell
Such a great country original singer .xx
I forgot how good Rodney is. Thibodaux, Plaquimne, Gulfport, moon shining on the water with a following sea pushing 500 tons of Supply boat out 100 miles to the rig. Catch Some Red Snapper then head back in to pick up casing etc. All the while listening to Rodney.
I live in San Antonio and play in a Classic Country band (South Texas Review). We play a TON of two-step songs like this one because folks here like to dance. It's a beautiful thing to see the dancers going around in a big circle on the sawdust floor. Thanks to all the songwriters, musicians, and singers who keep tradition alive.
ve3cda I grew up in the wrong place..lol Wish I grew up in Texas or in TN. and around musicians.
It's not a 2-step. A triple-2, but not a regular 2-step. You may be a musician, but you're not a dancer!
Got that right!
San Antonio is a great place to live country music is alive and will never die here. All through the summers are too hot brutal.
I’d call this a shuffle/Texas shuffle. Think Just Call Me Lonesome by Rainey Foster.
My favorite type of country. From one of the best!
Love the country music from this era.
Parsons Ave. Columbus Ohio with Dwight Yoakam 1981. Shy and quiet guy.
Likewise, there will never be anything like it again. I surely miss those days!
V
@@X-Factor-by2kz I do too. That's why I go to TH-cam on my Smartphone and wear it out listening to songs like this.
Hey country music stations, this is what country music is supposed to sound like. Why not go back to playing the good stuff like this instead of the shit you play today and try to pass off as country?
Just found this song...Rodney is a genius....love it....
Rodney makes me smile just to hear his voice and sometimes he's so delightful I laugh right out loud.
One of the best country artists.
What a Gem of a song and performance !!
this guy was highly overlooked.like drquest44 said,rodney is a great singer/songwriter,he has written some good songs.ive been a fan since i was a teenager in the 80s.
Crowell, is an undaunted supreme black-listed country star, that I have ever seen, this man has a place in Country Music, he's an acclaimed song writer too, and an accomplished singer, so why isn't he in the 'Country Hall of Fame?'
+John Hardesty Totally agree. He has been a Nashville staple songwriter for years.
I hope to get to Austin one day.I won't bother with Nashville.Rodney is country royalty.
what does this song have to do with drags queens and gay people?
Fool, you're the one who's screwed up. Hateful old fucker.
It's got nothing to do with sexual persuasion unless you're talking about an over pc'd pop market that took over the business that is Nashville. It's true country is gone for bucks made over backwards.
One of the greatest walking bass songs of all time. "All My Loving" by the Beatles is another. Crowell is pure classic country.
Absolutely great bass line
This was during a time when people could could have pure fun. No rush or madness.
Such a wonderful singer, one if the best voices around!
One of Rodney's five number ones. This is the country music I know and love.
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.
Incredible album, well said.
One of the best artists. Love this song and many others. Real country.
Rodney is definitely a crowd pleaser and a great songwriter. He comes up with such amazing lyrics and tunes. I hope he's around a lot more years with his great talent and career in music. Rock on Rodney Crowell!!
Love Rodney Crowell- Great Artist❣️❣️Wish artists today would pay serious attention to the Authentic Country We Baby Boomers we’re raised with!!
Never heard of this great singer till now,all i can say just brilliant
Heard this in 1990
Loved his music since then and he still sounds the same as he gets older.
"It aint over yet" my favorite track
Same fir me , just discovered this amazing singer
He was married at one point to Rosanne Cash. Rodney is one of many I grew up on as a kid
@@louiseshadbolt4027 pressed the wrong button. Amazing singer
@@brianford4985 Never knew he was married to Rosanne Cash, you learn more things in life every day
Out of South Africa.what a song and what a voice
Rodney Crowell is a superstar his music and singing is awesome. I have been listening to his great songs the last hour.
