Can all of the musicians take a second and acknowledge how locked in and tight this is? You can definitely tell they've been playing together for years and have that chemistry all musicians hope for.
I know his bassist and drummer have been with him for a few years at least. He did use a bluegrass group from Nashville (I believe) for a little while, and recorded the new album with them. But those two have been playing with him for a few years at least and are from the same area as him. But, as far as I can tell, I think all 3 of these guys are the original Food Stamps band. Idk. Just my opinion and what I've noticed lol
@@Aka60thChip absolutely not true! They’ve had the same band forever! Hair grows and style changes bub. Got the Colgate smile hot rod on the drums, Craig on the funky bass, and James on the lap steel. They’ve all been there for quite a while
I’m a Sri Lankan living in the UK for quite some time, this man turned me into a country fan and got me interested in real American country life, you people are the real salt of the earth ☝️
@@stewartsivarajah2352 we ain't no different really then your own country folk I'd say. But I love living here in SE Kentucky they'll have to drag me down off these mountains
This is my favorite version of this song. I like it better than the one on the album. Both are awesome, but I can’t stop listening to this particular one! Love it!!
This guy is so underrated. How is this not playing on every country radio station?? Ohh..that's right, country stations are too busy playing rap and pop.
[Lyrics] Charleston girl, dark and droom and you don't know her like I do took the fire escape to her room and got stoned raging blind Left my money in the trusting hands of them ol' steel brothers in a flats grass band one day i'm gonna drive up there and give them half my mind I don't know if it's the wine or the coke that makes her sound like her jaw is broke She's working hard to make some cents but she ain't got a dime I wish to God that I could help her out I wish I knew what she was talkin' bout I wish to God that I could get away but I'm way too drunk to drive All I know is that when I am good and sober I'm leaving West Virginia for a while don't know why but every time I cross that river Lord there's something tears me up and makes me wild Charleston girl with raven hair bloodshot eyes and skin so fair I believe if I could find my keys I'd try to drive away I never planned to leave so soon I didn't know that he was sweet on you go ahead and take her 'cuz she ain't worth the time All I know is that when I am good and sober I am leaving West Virginia for a while don't know why but every time I cross that river Lord there's something tears me up and makes me wild
During this song I was backstage with my grandpa(who also played at this festival) wondering who this dude was while being in awe from how much I liked him.
jordan dowd, it’s a matter of taste. I like Tyler’s older stuff, it was a little more gritty. But hey generally pretty damn good, and I never liked country music before. Hank Jr. being an exception
CHARLESTON WEST VIRGINIA .Is were I live and raised at and he hit the nail on head about the females in my city and I would say it's the coke and she ain't worth the time....great song brother I love this song and ur music.. but I will never leave west by God And that's a fact....
This song is killer, so pure... listen to the part where the drum skips a beat...not sure if it's the Wine or Coke...Awesome...Love that about live music. Thank God, someone videoed this performance.... TC you can drop by anytime, find some arrowheads, throw a cold one back, talk about some saltwater fishing
So much better than his new stuff! This is the Tyler Childers I want to see live. His bible thumpin', preachie stuff isn't for me. Get back to drinkin' and druggin' maaaaaan!
When people see me listening/singing Tyler Childers they say "I never thought Id see the day you were a country fan" And I tell them Tyler aint country music, hes his own thing, hes an experience all his own. There is NO ONE like Tyler imo. You got guys that are kinda similar, sure, but there aint anyone who truly makes you feel the same things this guy does. What a damn talent, and it makes me proud to be a Kentucky boy!
Tyler Childers you best my friend you should be the one on the radio you that good and songs have stories like the old country legend keep it up love all your songs man please come to St Louis
Tyler and his croup are so good! Just sad that this type of music isn’t popular anymore. I love this kind of music! Amazing job Tyler! My wife and I would love to see you in concert!
@@kody7401 WKY native here, we have country folk just like the rest of the state but this sound is pure eastern KY. All the bluegrass/revival bands on the west side are more folk and less country and roots like the eastern bands are.
I absolutely love Tyler's voice and his music! I pretty much listen to him all day/every day while I'm at work on my headset! Peace & love from British Columbia, Canada!
I live with 40 miles of where he is from!! Why did it take all these years to find him?!?! Wow is all I can say, other than the fact he blows Stapleton outta the water!!
Charleston girl in a darkened room And you don't know her like I do We took the fire escape to her room And got stoned, ragin' blind Left my money in the trustin' hands Of them ol' steel brothers and fast crash band One day, I'm gonna drive up there, and give them half my mind I don't know if it's the wine or the coke That makes her sound like her jaw is broke She's workin' hard to make some sense, but she ain't got a dime I wish to God that I could help her out I wish I knew what she was talkin' bout I wish to God that I could get away, but I'm way too drunk to drive All I know is that when I am good and sober I am leaving West Virginia for a while Don't know why but every time I cross that river Lord, there's somethin' tears me up, makes me wild Charleston girl with raven hair, bloodshot eyes and skin so fair I believe if I could find my keys, I'd try to drive away I never planned to leave so soon I didn't know that he was sweet on you Go ahead and take her 'Cause she ain't worth the time All I know is that when I am good and sober I am leaving West Virginia for a while Don't know why but every time I cross that river Lord, there's somethin' tears me up, makes me wild

Can't even lie, Tyler Childers singlehandedly turned me into a country fan
He sings from the heart
"Americana"
On gawd gurl
I’m a country fan but will always be a grunge fan
This is not country! Folk music!! All the same hes amazing!!
Is it just me or are you listening to this for the 17th time today as well?
only your 17th?
35 going on 200
I listen to Tyler all night long. Every single night.
Yep
There’s no other like him. My 13 year old turned me on to him and I’m a forever fan !!!
This song needs to be about 4 mins longer
"All I know is that when I'm good and sober I'm leaving west Virginia for a while..."
Or just never end
That’s why we can put it on repeat 💯🫡
Yes
Holy shit. It sounds exactly like it does on the album. Jesus, this guy is good.
Sounds better if you ask me!
I liked the live version better to be honest
Wish the album version had the steel guitar like this one. It’s amazing.
That’s the first thing thought too
it gets me every time how amazing his voice is
This song is scientifically proven to be a hangover cure.
😁
Y-y-yes yes it is I love this
Damn straight 😍
Wish that was true lol
Idk I listened to this song a bunch Saturday and woke up sunday with a hangover
Might be Tyler Childers most underrated song WOW
Thats her and the banks
Agreed brother. This song just kills. WOW indeed.
This my number one Childers song hands down
I feel like follow you to virgie is also underrated that’s my favorite Tyler Childers song
22nd winter and her and the banks! This is one of my favorites too they are all so gooood!
Can all of the musicians take a second and acknowledge how locked in and tight this is? You can definitely tell they've been playing together for years and have that chemistry all musicians hope for.
Ben Pinkard see I wanna agree with you on the chemistry but every video I watch I’m pretty sure the band members change
I know his bassist and drummer have been with him for a few years at least. He did use a bluegrass group from Nashville (I believe) for a little while, and recorded the new album with them. But those two have been playing with him for a few years at least and are from the same area as him. But, as far as I can tell, I think all 3 of these guys are the original Food Stamps band. Idk. Just my opinion and what I've noticed lol
I've seen these guys twice, and their entire set is like this.
I notice this a lot about live acts. That's why I love streetlight manifesto. I love a tight band.
@@Aka60thChip absolutely not true! They’ve had the same band forever! Hair grows and style changes bub. Got the Colgate smile hot rod on the drums, Craig on the funky bass, and James on the lap steel. They’ve all been there for quite a while
From Charleston, West Virginia.....Can confirm this is a Charleston girl lol
I'm from Huntington and can verify this statement😂
Parkersburg too
Instead of wine and coke it’s more like meth and dope lol
Born in Huntington, never was a huge country fan till I heard Tyler childers
Seriously
Never was much of a country music fan but this dude rocks.
What's up Luke, I cover this song at open mics
@@rondavis8566 No, we are lucky there is still quality country music so people can see the magic it offers.
It aint a country thing. Shit closer to a Cash thing.
Absolute Water lmao so country
@@TheSpaGuys Country + soul + Cash. He's a damn good storyteller.
The realest voice in country

Well hell, come visit us sometime!
@@Hreodrich one day we will, my partner and our 7 year old daughter would love to see and experience the real rural country 👍

@@Hreodrichhell, yeah, come visit!
His music is like country, bluegrass and blues all rolled into one. Best young musician I've seen in many years. True artist!
This is what we need....more of this...Less of that junk i hear when I turn on Country radio!
snydesy yes!
Amen brother
Check out Sturgill Simpson too. They create/tour together. Real deal dude.
i might actually like country music if they played more stuff like this and billy strings
AFRICKINMEN!!
This is my favorite version of this song. I like it better than the one on the album. Both are awesome, but I can’t stop listening to this particular one! Love it!!
That steel guitar though. badass addition
Yyyyeeeessss
Has kept me not so alone in this crazy time, Love This!!!!!
Takes the song to a whole new level !!!👍
Came here to comment the same thing 😂
This is one of his best mixed shows, love hearing his guitar as a leading part of the band sound.
He ain't this good anymore
This just jumps into the soul! I just don’t know how anyone could not like the hell out of this.
❤😊 2:45
She's workin' hard ta make some sense, but she ain't got a dime.... that line always make me laugh
I cannot find a stereo that will play this song as loudly as I need it to
Tyler and The Food Stamps have so many great songs ans the Purgatory album is a pure work of art! But this song is my favorite.
I am with you on this one, Charleston Girl is my favorite as well. It’s just so damn good. This performance and vibe in particular, is outstanding.
Purgatory might be the most complete album I’ve heard from anyone. EVERY songs is a masterpiece.
This guy is so underrated. How is this not playing on every country radio station??
Ohh..that's right, country stations are too busy playing rap and pop.
Snap tracks
I’m from Charleston, they are no girls to sing about
Dude has both the lyric writing and kickass melodies. What a gift. The new Hillbilly poet/Hank senior.
How the hell have I never heard of this guy before? I’m HOOKED. Amazing voice and lyrics
Welcome to the club, man. Glad you're finally here!
thx sturgill for pointing me in this guys direction wow!!
When does Sturgill talk about Tyler I can’t find anything
Not sure if Sturgill talking about him is on TH-cam but Sturgill is his producer
Yes, I started listening to sturgill simpson and youtube pointed me to this guy. He's great in the same way SS is.
My favorite Childers song. The sped up tempo in the live versions is my favorite
Reminds me of summer and being on the river and taking every little detail in !!! Killer song especially this version !!
TC is the most talented artist going right now... Dude is unbelievable..
[Lyrics]
Charleston girl, dark and droom
and you don't know her like I do
took the fire escape to her room
and got stoned raging blind
Left my money in the trusting hands
of them ol' steel brothers in a flats grass band
one day i'm gonna drive up there
and give them half my mind
I don't know if it's the wine or the coke
that makes her sound like her jaw is broke
She's working hard to make some cents
but she ain't got a dime
I wish to God that I could help her out
I wish I knew what she was talkin' bout
I wish to God that I could get away
but I'm way too drunk to drive
All I know is that when I am good and sober
I'm leaving West Virginia for a while
don't know why but every time I cross that river
Lord there's something tears me up and makes me wild
Charleston girl with raven hair
bloodshot eyes and skin so fair
I believe if I could find my keys
I'd try to drive away
I never planned to leave so soon
I didn't know that he was sweet on you
go ahead and take her
'cuz she ain't worth the time
All I know is that when I am good and sober
I am leaving West Virginia for a while
don't know why but every time I cross that river
Lord there's something tears me up and makes me wild
Charleston girl in a darkened room*
*thrash grass band
@@justinbenoit4 i thought it was fast crash band
🤙🍻
Man, the Steel on this rendition is killer!
I knew I couldn't be the only one thinking this.
No Steel No Deal!@@junkyardjoeofficial
You know its serious when theres pedal steel
He makes it look effortless. Amazing voice.
I damn glad I found this man’s music
During this song I was backstage with my grandpa(who also played at this festival) wondering who this dude was while being in awe from how much I liked him.
Cool 👍👍
This is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard.
This guy is the best exponent of this neo-traditional country genre since Steve Earle. This is epic stuff.
God this guy is good! Deep soul he has…love his bluegrass Kentucky💕
All I know is that when I’m good and sober, I still love his music. I’m inspired in ways I can’t explain, but I too want a band of my own.
This guy and Colter Wall made me love country. Absolutely outstanding 👌
You and I are on the same journey, add a little Mandolin Orange and The Dead South. Never new I was a country/western/bluegrass/folk fan.
Colter wall cant hold childers jock strap...
jordan dowd, it’s a matter of taste. I like Tyler’s older stuff, it was a little more gritty. But hey generally pretty damn good, and I never liked country music before. Hank Jr. being an exception
@@waynethera2712 may i recommend you what else is new by Cody jinks. It kind of reminds me of Hank jr
Samuel L. Alright. I’ll check it out.
Never ever been a mainstream country fan but I love me some folky bluegrassy country rock. I’ve listened to this 100 times in the last 24 hours 😂
CHARLESTON WEST VIRGINIA .Is were I live and raised at and he hit the nail on head about the females in my city and I would say it's the coke and she ain't worth the time....great song brother I love this song and ur music.. but I will never leave west by God And that's a fact....
Damn I remember constantly playing this song years ago when the views were less than 100,000. Looks like people finally caught on!
The thumbs down gotta be ex girl friends this is becoming my favorite song and artist.

I seen this kid last night in Lawrence Ks. Best ever
Reminds me a lot of Gordon Lightfoot, a little country, a little folk, a little rock. Perfect.
Rip to a real legend ❤
Found this guy by accident. Really glad I did! Fantastic all around
Am I the only one that thinks the drummer looks like Andre The Giant?
Millo Torres holy shit he doessssss
I actually thought Samoa Joe from the Whitehouse Road live video
Love Him, but sometimes his voice sounds like Kurt Cobain.. but in a softer way! and different type of music!
Someone please tell me who the slide guitarist is
This song is killer, so pure... listen to the part where the drum skips a beat...not sure if it's the Wine or Coke...Awesome...Love that about live music. Thank God, someone videoed this performance.... TC you can drop by anytime, find some arrowheads, throw a cold one back, talk about some saltwater fishing
It's the coke that makes her sound like her jaw is broke I promise
I looked up another live version and the band actually plays it that way on purpose
Y does he sound the same on record and live
this is almost as glorious of a live performance as Jane's Addiction Live at the Hammerstein Ballroom. A sliver of something from heaven.
I wanted to go and it was sold out!!!! 💔
This is the absolute BEST performance/version of this song 100%
So much better than his new stuff! This is the Tyler Childers I want to see live. His bible thumpin', preachie stuff isn't for me. Get back to drinkin' and druggin' maaaaaan!
He is one of the saviors of country music. Along with Jamey Johnson, Sturgilll Simpson, and Colter Wall.

Nice point!

I don’t know if it’s the wine or the coke that makes her sound like her jaw is broke. That’s gold
that line is amazing man. she aint got a dime hahaha
It's the
It's a shame mainstream country music radio doesn't play this stuff
Greenbrier girls are where it's at
Fayette gal's aint bad either!
He's by far the best one to come around in awhile.
I love Childers’ sound with this band. This is incredible
DANG Tyler so good he can play Guitar, sing, AND the steel guitar all at the same time 1:00
Whole band sounding great. 🔥
It’s so dang difficult to drum and sing at the same time! I love the drummer in this song, very impressed. Thank you!
Tyler, keep singing. Boys keep on playing that music!
Nashville doesn't like it but Tyler Childers is the face and voice of country music for a while dang lot of us.

Louis CK killed this shit
I would've been losing my mind at this show
😂
Voice reminds me of shannon hoon
Imagine sitting there not knowing this guy would be bigger than Elvis.

Savage
Looks
Good eyeballs
The look of a pillhead
omg a girl...
This Man! Singing the soundtrack to my fkn life! ❤😮😊
This song is way too short I wish he would stretch his stuff out and jam a lot more
I want to play this tune for my wife but I’m afraid that if her reaction isn’t acceptable I may divorce her on the spot.
I was never much of a country music guy, but after growing up in southern West Va, I can relate to this song heavy.

I would literally give anything to play guitar and sing like Tyler. What a talented guy💯
I absolutely love Tyler's voice and his music! I pretty much listen to him all day/every day while I'm at work on my headset! Peace & love from British Columbia, Canada!
YAAAASSSSSS!!! what a performance if u guys come to maine I'LL BE THERE
Been their...thanks Tina nolan for turning me on to tyler..best wordsmith in 100 yrs.
The same Tina Nolan who had a man that had a good place for sifting?
damn. exactly how hot is it at this show? tyler is sweating big time on his face. killer song, tyler..... the lyrics and dobro are awesome.
Dont know why but his voice in this one reminds me of Kurt Cobain! Go figure
Reminds me more of shannon hoon from blind melon
I live with 40 miles of where he is from!! Why did it take all these years to find him?!?! Wow is all I can say, other than the fact he blows Stapleton outta the water!!
Miss the banjo but love the steel guitar! Also who’s that on the dobro?
Fuck the cow bell... more Steel Guitar!!!
I literally hate country so much, but I fuckin love this guy, he doesn’t have a single song I don’t like
nicely done fellas!!!! this sounds amazing. Texas has love for ya
