Lynyrd Skynyrd was my dads favorite band, he passed in 2016. I didn’t expect to start crying as soon as I heard the first chorus. You did a great job 👏🏻. Thanks for the memories!
Every time I think Cody can’t get any better, he goes and does something like this. What a way to pay tribute to absolute legends like Skynyrd. I know they are damn proud of this!
You had me at Ballad of CL and Cody Johnson...that Fiddle and the Campfire closed the deal and added yourself to the Play Again/favorites list!!! Awesome.
I see the good lord has been listening because over the last few days me and my friend have been talking about this song nonstop and it just happens to be this you drop this cover😳
I just discovered Cody a few days ago while looking for a male cover of "Whoever's in New England" for my own vocal list. This dude's timbre, guitar skills, vocal range and timing all add up to something greater than a "cover". He creates "remakes" and he owns them. Much respect.
This is one of my all time favorite songs! I had a little Walkman mp3 players when I was a kid and my dad had put Ballad of Curtis Loew and that was my favorite song! I still think of my poppa when I hear this song! Great cover!
I love Cody!! He is great, singer and composer. He really does justice to this great Lenard Skynard tune. When I hear this song, it is like hearing a bit of music history. I love history! You go, Cody🎸💕😍
I love the campfire scene.... I don't pay attention much to music with videos but it seems more intimate... More RAW! More Country! Just wanted you to know in case you read the comments! Love Always, Miranda Jane
Never thought I’d say this , Cody you did better then the original. Much respect sir I’m definitely a fan of yours . So much relatable emotions in your music , thank you
DAMN, this is cool!! This was a song I played all the time back when I was gigging. It was always an unexpected cover that everyone loved, but no one had ever heard of before. GREAT song, great cover boys!
No,the original is still best , it’s like with a movie if you can’t top the original STOP! It’s different it’s good because they are turning people onto this song!
Omg! Love this stuff! He’s got a couple good songs that are only on TH-cam I wish Cojo would releases! Love love love it! One of my fave by lynard skynard!
Well I used to wake the morning, before the rooster crowed Searching for soda bottles to get myself some dough Brought 'em down to the corner, down to the country store Cash 'em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Loew Old Curt was a black man with white curly hair When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care He used to own an old dobro used to play it across his knees I'd give old Curt my money he'd play all day for me Play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew Well I got your drinking money tune up your dobro People said he was useless, them people all were fools 'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues He looked to be sixty and maybe I was ten Mama used to whoop me but I'd go see him again I'd clap my hands stomp my feet, try to stay in time He'd play me a song or two then take another drink of wine Well play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew Well I got your drinking money tune up your dobro People said he was useless them people all were fools 'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues Yes sir On the day old Curtis died nobody came to pray Ol' preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay Well he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues And on the day he lost his life that's all he had to lose Play me a song Curtis Loew, hey Curtis Loew I wish that you was here so everyone would know People said you were useless them people all were fools 'Cause Curtis you're the finest picker to ever play the blues
Cody always does an incredible job, no matter the song. What a shame he wasn't able to bring home more awards from the CMTs.
It’s not a bad thing he isn’t “loved” by that liberal machine.
@@Brenda0312F Well-said with few words, saying a whole lot.
@@Brenda0312F speak for yourself I’m no right wing bigot and I love Cody Johnson and all country your just a political hack
I agree, he did a damn good job with doing this song! I didn’t watch it this year but I can’t believe he didn’t win😡
Yes he dose he can sing anything I love that
Cody’s acoustic covers are absolutely incredible. And the fiddler is so talented
Like if you NEED a Co Jo cover album 😭
Never would’ve expected this. my favorite Skynyrd song being covered by you is incredible, thank you Cody
Same
All I can do is write about it and four walls of raiford are my favorites but Curtis Lowe top 5.
Curtis Lowe is top 3 but that smell and gimme three steps are gold
Good for y’all for being able to make a top 5 for Skynyrd cause I sure as heck can’t. They’re all gold
I really like this guy I'm 66 years old I seen the old Skynyrd back and he does the song justice 👍
Lynyrd Skynyrd was my dads favorite band, he passed in 2016. I didn’t expect to start crying as soon as I heard the first chorus. You did a great job 👏🏻. Thanks for the memories!
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. How are you?
@@davidholton9667 simp
That was really special
Listen to the Anthony Oliver version~cu
Noone asked tho.
Every time I think Cody can’t get any better, he goes and does something like this. What a way to pay tribute to absolute legends like Skynyrd. I know they are damn proud of this!
This session needs to be available on Spotify….NOW!
That's the best acoustic version I have ever heard, bar none Great Job Ronnie and the boys would be proud
Such Amazing 😅, Hi how are you doing this weekend ?
I’ve listened to this cover a hundred times and it just gets better and better!! Excellent everything on this one!
You had me at Ballad of CL and Cody Johnson...that Fiddle and the Campfire closed the deal and added yourself to the Play Again/favorites list!!!
Awesome.
Cody and Jody. I swear, cody could cover happy birthday and it would be the best song ever. The man is the most gifted artist in country music today.

I see the good lord has been listening because over the last few days me and my friend have been talking about this song nonstop and it just happens to be this you drop this cover😳
I felt that shit in my soul. Hell yeah, baby
CoJo never let's me down. Great singer and artist. Watched him live and was the best concert I've witnessed.
I just discovered Cody a few days ago while looking for a male cover of "Whoever's in New England" for my own vocal list. This dude's timbre, guitar skills, vocal range and timing all add up to something greater than a "cover". He creates "remakes" and he owns them. Much respect.
I believe you just made Ronnie extremely proud!
Great rendition of one of my favorite songs! Glad you posted it. I probably won't see anything from CMT ever again.
This is one of my all time favorite songs! I had a little Walkman mp3 players when I was a kid and my dad had put Ballad of Curtis Loew and that was my favorite song! I still think of my poppa when I hear this song! Great cover!
The violin is so perfect in the mix. Best cover there is
Skynyrd one of my fav bands,, best cover ever played by anyone!! Fantastic job!!!!!!
great version I Love Skynyrd and Cody Johnson. Great cover. That fiddle just adds to it too.
I love Cody!! He is great, singer and composer. He really does justice to this great Lenard Skynard tune. When I hear this song, it is like hearing a bit of music history. I love history! You go, Cody🎸💕😍
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. How are you?
Hats Off Mr Johnson from Jacksonville Florida !!!!
So amazing 😅, Hi Wesley how are you doing this weekend ?
Cody has the best country voice for a singer
Cody can do some Skynyrd. One of my favorites!!!
That's the only way to cover this song (masterpiece) and do it justice. I believe Ronnie would be proud.
I love the campfire scene.... I don't pay attention much to music with videos but it seems more intimate... More RAW! More Country! Just wanted you to know in case you read the comments!
Love Always, Miranda Jane

So amazing 😅, Hi brylanhow are you doing this weekend ?
Well I used to wake the morning, before the rooster crowed
Searching for soda bottles to get myself some dough
Brought 'em down to the corner, down to the country store
Cash 'em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Loew
Old Curt was a black man with white curly hair
When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care
He used to own an old dobro used to play it across his knees
I'd give old Curt my money he'd play all day for me
Play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew
Well I got your drinking money tune up your dobro
People said he was useless, them people all were fools
'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues
He looked to be sixty and maybe I was ten
Mama used to whoop me but I'd go see him again
I'd clap my hands stomp my feet, try to stay in time
He'd play me a song or two then take another drink of wine
Well play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew
Well I got your drinking money tune up your dobro
People said he was useless them people all were fools
'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues
Yes sir
On the day old Curtis died nobody came to pray
Ol' preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay
Well he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues
And on the day he lost his life that's all he had to lose
Play me a song Curtis Loew, hey Curtis Loew
I wish that you was here so everyone would know
People said you were useless them people all were fools
'Cause Curtis you're the finest picker to ever play the blues
Jesus Loves You
A better message was never said
One of my favorites from Skynyrd. Good rendition...thanks
