Song by James McMurtry
LYRICS
Aunt Clara kept her Bible right next to the phone
In case she needed a quote while she talked to someone
In my memory she smiles while the blessing is said
And visions of freeze tag dance in my head
She says I’ll grow up big if I eat all my roast
I’ll still believe in heaven, but I won’t believe in ghosts anymore
I’ll put away childish things
I’ll put away childish things
Every other weekend, age o' thirteen
With my fishing pole and my Field and Stream
Ridin' back home on the Trailways bus
I looked out the window ’til I saw too much
And I called my parents by their own first names
I played in the alley, but I didn’t play the game anymore
I’ll put away childish things
I’ll put away childish things
The wolves howl all night long
They won’t stop and they won’t go home
Beneath my window they run
Probably it’ll be alright
If I keep it all locked up tight
And wait ‘til daylight comes
Now my boy goes like a house on fire
He’ll never burn out and he’ll never retire
And I remember when I used to think like that
When I was young and the world was flat
But I’m forty-some years old now and man, I don’t care
All I want now is just a comfortable chair
And to sell all my stock and live on the coast
I don’t believe in heaven, but I still believe in ghosts
I’ve put away childish things
I’ve put away childish things
I’ve put away childish things
I’ve put away childish things - เพลง
I love how this arrangement with a full band reveals Sarah's more ROCKING side to her talent. She can do no wrong.
Wrong, no. Better, yes. Words fail; see my comment above. She is not comfy here, and I feel it and hear it. She'll grow into it.
@@dsm5d723 I respectfully disagree. I think she appears perfectly comfortable playing rocking tunes like this.
@@guyfaulkes3035 Opinion. Only she could tell us. Her own slower and more contemplative stuff feels like her reflex. Still so much more to grow into, like anything. Maybe I feel like it is a spread too thin in a well worn direction, that I do acknowledge.
She can do no wrong is an understatement - stellar! McMurtry must be proud.
@@sjw999sjw McMurtry loved it. He had her introduce him at the recent awards show where he played "Canola Fields". 😉
John Leventhal and his guitar playing are both so elegant!
Sounding great Sarah.
he is my now guitar hero
Great hybrid pickin’ solo! Love that Tele sound
That Tele’s on steroids! Note the pickups and what appears to be jumbo frets. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
One my favorites covering one of my all time favorites! James McMurtry is way too unsung!
He definitely got ahold of his dad's talents for writing and took it too new heights !
"I ate all my roast and all I want now is a comfortable chair" ... and put this golden tune on repeat all day.
I can hear James now ... "This is one of the Sarah Jarosz songs I wrote ..." 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Amazing cover, almost as good as the solo version Sarah did from home when the pandemic began. Thanks for posting it.
WHY is John Leventhal living MY life. Stop Bogarting the awesome female talent, John! JK, I love the direction that he has nudged the folks he's worked with. Rosanne Cash's cover of World Party's, "All Come True" revealed a rocking side of Rosanne that I'd never heard. Kind of the same thing here with Sarah - but I have a feeling that Sarah has a hard edged vision that will someday blow us all away.
Saw this very excellent performance!!! I really love James McMurtry's writing. He's got a sardonic wit as well as a serious side. This is a super rocking version!!!! Thank you and the band for letting loose!!!!!
That has to be one of the best songs I've heard. The guitar solo is just incredible, the harmony as sweet as harmony can get and Sarah belting it out to perfect time has me in raptures. And then I listened to "Blue Heron" and it sends me to another corner of my heart I didn't know I had.
Of course, because it's America hardly anyone knows who she is. And they're missing out 'cos she is just fabulous!✌
I know!! I saw her on ACL in 2010, she was 18 and I was blown away. Have you heard her new duet with David Crosby? He asked her to be on the song... For Free by Joni ..
Totally agree about the guitar solo, it's incredible. He manages to tell a whole story with it. Sarah attracts major talent to her music.
don't you believe it - I'm in the UK and my friends and I've been to see her play twice locally. And that won't be the last time. She is a monster talent. That Leventhal guy's pretty ace on the economically perfect Tele accompaniment too!
@williamcorden2121 I agree with you love this song Sarah Jarosz - Childish Things
Leventhal!
I love James Mccmurtry. Such an amazing songwriter.This cover certainly does the song justice.Just great Sarah
Performed like it was an original. Love it.
As a big fan of James McMurtry's songwriting, this hits the bullseye for me. Go Sarah Go!
Refreshing ,honest and rocking. Thank you Sarah and John
dayumn girl, you got John Leventhal jammin' with you. You never fail to impress on every level. This song fits you well, as you seem to be an old soul ~
This video and song should be released as a single. This blew me away when I saw this last week.
as a big James McMurtry fan i loved this dead set nailed it well done i listened to it many many times
This is a wonderful performance. Sarah's singing is perfection.
the girl is simply amazing....
Brilliant! A wonderful cover - Jarosz/McMurtry tough to beat that combination.
This is a pleasant surprise! You sound terrific as always, and the folks there with you are likewise top-notch.
This is a clinic on how a band should be! To me Sarah is main stream! Been a fan for many years!
One of my favorite McMurtry songs!
Excellent band taking Sarah to the next level with those clear vocals with the right intonations always perfectly in tune.
James McMurtry!!!!
An underrated genius of a songwriter!
Excellent.
Great voice.
Reminds me of a young Mary Chapin Carpenter.
Well, well. I didn’t think butter would melt in her lovely mouth. SJ, rocking it out with her stellar band! The first ‘World on the Screen’ gig was fantastic! Can’t wait for the second featuring the Blue Heron suite!
A modern artist who can sing, play an instrument and play live. Things are looking up!
AND write her own songs, too!
Yeah! John Leventhal!
looks like Bill Nighy
Thank you for putting this on TH-cam.
Great cover of a great song
So talented, this Sarah ! and so eclectic !
Leventhal has become one steady producer for the likes of Shawn Colvin as well as his spouse Rosanne Cash.
Jarosz has covered this song before; her time in NYC & now Nashville haven't hurt her at all in the post-'Live From Here' months.
I am sure they had their reasons including loss of market share, but when American Public Media ended 'Live From Here', I was justifiably worried it might never come back.
Chris Thile is an awesome front man & with Sarah Jarosz, they were the rocks of 'Live From Here'; I was a huge fan of that & Prairie Home Companion going back to the dawn of man with Garrison Keilor.
If I had my way, I would singlehandedly fund & bring back 'Live From Here' all to watch Chris Thile & Sarah Jarosz & friends in their finest moments. I guess one has to have more than $3.89 in their pockets.
Dang it. I guess those days are toast.
Wow. I hadn’t heard that Live From Here was canceled. I figured that it was just on hold due to the pandemic. Bummer.
Hell of a loss - Brittany Haas on fiddle and her "Hawktail" band crew; Sarah's "I'm With Her" group, including Aoife O'Donovan, who worked with Chris T. on other projects. Impossible to replace - no other broad venue for Americana - wish it could be brought back post-pandemic.
Dang-Live from Here gone? a big loss.
I agree with you completely! Live From Here with Sarah and Chris and Aoife and Brittany etc. are some of my favorite musical moments ever!!!!!!!🎼🥺
@@CarlMattick yes !!! These people are the best and when Chris got this show they did so much with it❣️
This is such a great song! So glad you covered it.
One of my favorite songs. They did it justice!
Sarah is a truely excellent performer. Both musician and singer! She has such a great selection of songs and writes her own chapter in the American song book!
Look out for John’s seamless hybrid pick, no pick, hybrid pick transition on the solo. Bloody legend.
So good!!!
Thanks Sarah, my toddler granddaughter loves this song so much she will strum along with her spoon or toothbrush make believe guitar while watching it. Grandpa diggin it as well.
This song makes everybody happy in the house, the work goes easy and fast
May 2021 - life's starting up again: Sarah Jarosz is the tonic we all need.
Talk about a class act!! Very inspiring.
Yeah... more like this!
Rock n roll Sarah. I love it.
Amazing musicians! ❤️
Oh HELL YEAH!!
I love this song. Got me following James McMurtry years ago. This one's going on my rotation!
Get it Sarah,I like the new attire also.
Your version is elevated to master chef status. Food for my ears.
Wow. Just Great.
Been hooked since .....
"Build me up from bones"
Great song.....thanks for another
Sweet performance
Great version of a great song.
Pure. Deep. Gorgeous. Perfect.
This young lady can really really sing
Excellent!
She is amazing…i wish she played San Antonio….this is a killer lineup…I love her in this space... she could own this. This song exemplifies how she does it all. She can jam....
I know.. Born in Wimberley right down the road and nobody in SA knows who she is..... I LOVE Sarah! Gruene Hall or The Paramount Theater in Austin will be your best bet. Im sure she'll be in one of those venues in the next year. Her ACL taping come out in October.
She's coming to Gruene Hall , Friday, April 22!! 2 dates in Austin too. xox
I caught her first Fresh grass performance sometime ago now and I knew she was going to be something very unique. I've watched her grow musically every which way possible and its truly fascinating to watch.
This cover has a great fresh feel to it... as if to say there is a lifetime of Sarah to come.
No doubt she will be one of the all time greatest artists of our time🙏
She is one my favorite singers...love her...
Fantastic cover! Why don't more people know about this AMAZING songwriter!? James is a legend.
We could use more this!
I love Sarah and I love James. Two great things that go together!
This is amazing!! I loved the livestream too. Great job Sarah!

Nothing like a properly-driven tele doing tele things.
The show was FAB!!!
I'm not sure I've ever clicked a pop-up notification so quickly before. Shrewd selection, rocking arrangement, and a crackerjack performance!
This is an incredible version that I can't get enough of. Thank you!
Damn that is fantastic. Thank you
Sara, is SOOOOO GOOOD!
I love Sarah. I have always loved John Leventhals guitar playing. What a great mix, lovely song, and may they record and play together even more.
Great cover of a great song, thanks
Outstanding!! 👍 I'm excited & looking forward to Blue Heron Suite livestream tomorrow evening, which I've purchased ticket for, as well as pre-order of Blue Heron Suite!! 😄💖
me too!
I keep coming back to watch this. Lost track of how many times.
Between this one, Paul Simons Kathys Song and Bob Dylan’s Ring them bells. ...I loose track too 😀
@@carolynpack9153 Her cover of I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For is pretty darned good too.
Same. Been on repeat, often.
Well that was a real treat. A favourite song for me. You all did it justice!
I love EVERYTHINGshesings.......tight band too!
Sure wouldn’t mind seeing this band on the road! Assuming one of the stops was in Minneapolis.
I'm sad your cover of childish things isn't on spotify I love this!
Loving it from the first second!
Great song and a great performance.
Sarah is pure talent. Fantastic song also. James McMurtry his best song.
God in the highest heavens, deer god, you are going to make it, dear Sarah Jarosz x
Awesome cover! We were so happy to catch the stream, so it's great to hear this again.
If you like this cover, search TH-cam for another "Live from Home" cover Sarah Jarosz has of Childish Things. It is also exceedingly good.
I can tell that those hammer ons and pull offs in the solo is Leventhal from a million miles away, and I like it very very much. And hats off to you Sarah, big fan!
Great stuff! I love the James McMurtry original, but this seems... even better!
Love
Sarah, you, and John, and the band, nailed this James McMurtry! Carry on!
So good Love this one.
Great music very nice. Thanks 😊!!
I'm with her and James!
One of my fav songs.
Thank you! Long-time fan of James McMurtry, and his solo, acoustic live streams helped sustain me during the pandemic year. (Hola, McPeeps!) It's been great to see him back out there with the full band. and to discover rockin' covers like this! Instant subscriber.
Great rocking cover.
Major star quality.
I know I’m late to the show, but what a great cover of Mr. McMurty’s song.❤
Fabulous version of a great song!
Wonderful cover!
World On The Ground!!!
The smile on your face...young lady...
Yes! I like that a lot!

Absolutely wonderful.
Love Sarah, love John!
More please.
