How this got a thumbs down i dont know. Great song from an amazing band. They are great live too.
I hear ya...this is a great channel but there are about 4 to 5 subscribers that have no idea what country music is all about!
BlackBerry Smoke is my favorite band. They are the best live band on the road! Love this
I got VIP passes to their show in Richmond. Hopefully this nonsense virus will be called off.
Charlie Starr is from a very small town on the Alabama / Ga border called Lanett. Charlie used to work for my brother as a body repair man in a collision center in Marietta Ga. His dad was a mechanic / body man as well. My brother told me that when Charlie was working for him he was also writing and playing music and he would bring cassette tapes he had recorded to my brother and ask his opinion. Charlie didnt want to fix cars, he wanted to be a Southern Rock Star...He followed his dreams and he made it.
Hey and hi. That is an amazing comment. It sure rings true with what I've read/heard/seen in interviews with Charlie. How cool. From France. Linda Aug. 2023
Charlies lyrics always seem to hit me right between the eyes. Awesome band, no gimicks nothing fancy, just great songs and great playing by the whole band
One of the most epic songs of all time for me. You can feel identified with the song in so many ways like your town, your job, your country etc. Charlie Starr is incredibly talented and the entire band is insane
The first song I heard from Blackberry Smoke. Great one.
Southern Rock-n-Roll at it's finest!
Ohhhh my...lot of dream songs...all for us !! Brazil here!!
A well deserved rating for an excellent song! This one's on my daily playlist...a simple slice out of the life of a southern boy that many should be able to relate to. Making a career of the military and attending half a dozen large universities, I guess you could say this small town boy became worldly! But who knows?.... here I am back where I was born in bustling town of 388! :-) I've tried city living but I found it dangerous and boring. Yeah there's plenty of stuff to do...just not the things I like. I hear city folk say the same about living in a small town...and even suburbanites have their own ideas of things. But here's the thing...if you're going to sing a song or write a book...stick with what you know. There's a lot of subtle nuances you pick up from living in different environments and there's simply nothing worse than hearing an outsider trying to tell you who are.
Well said. I spent 30 years in cities and a twist of fate/career brought me back to my hometown. So thankful to be here (although I have to occasionally travel to get my city life fix!) This song captures so many of my classmates lives. They took over their parents' farms and businesses because that was the expectation. Most seem satisfied, but I wonder?
@@tupelohoney622 Thanks Tup! Yeah, sometimes you have to get into the city for some things but we both know the best part of that trip...leaving! Seeing the congested traffic in your rear view mirror and the green loving arms opening up from the sides of the road always makes me smile! :-)
@David Emswiler Tremendous post, with a decidedly DE flavor. Spot on in ways I wouldn't have thought of.
David Emswiler We've been together for 30 years and somehow you still never fail to amaze me with your imagery. You can always describe what my mind is thinking that I can't seem to muster up words for! ❤️
The very first time I heard this song, I related to it immediately. I grew up in a small town in Alabama. In high school, I thought baseball was going to be my ticket out. It ended up being the military that kept me from getting stuck as a construction laborer, a drug addict, or living in my parents house forever. I was able to avoid all that and see the world. I have friends who chose other paths and they are still there today some 20+ years later. I never moved back, but I live in a small town in Florida now and could never see myself living in a big city after the military. I will always be a small town man at heart, just not the same small town I grew up in. Thank you for rating this song @RockN2Country!
@JT Glad you enjoyed the reaction, and glad you took a path that worked for you!
Rest easy Brit Turner….you are missed💔
I'm here watching in 2021! That's a great country song! Greetings from Brazil! 👊🏼
"Where's he going with this?" ...Nowhere.
Great song and reaction.
My fav band! Im brazilian and they have a huge fanbase here, its hard to believe cause southern rock is something "too american" , we made so much noise on their instagram that they came here in May, i loved their show!
look at the crowd @RockN2Country th-cam.com/video/0mdMwLVY_po/w-d-xo.html
Exato Cancian...uma banda adorável
I grew up in a small shithole town in Alabama that this song describes perfectly and got the hell out of there as soon as I could and you would be amazed at how many family members and "friends" acted like I did something wrong by wanting to get away.
This song has always hit me hard. I've seen and continue to see on social media so many people from where I'm from continue to live this song.
Just WOW!!
Top notch song one of my current favorites. As always keep up the good work!!
@Ronny Westberry Thank you my friend!! Glad you liked it. :-)
Great real song! These guys are real road warriors traveling clubs everywhere.
I rode my pony back into my one horse town. Guess that makes it a two horse town now.
@Tommy Carson LOL!!!
Love BBS,, follow them all over every chance I get,, the Boys are awesome Live !!
BBS is an amazing band and would ask for you to keep listening to them. They have a lot of great songs
Dude, I'm in rural Virginia. I've been listening to them since 2005... Damn Yankees. The funeral sound is an organ. I appreciate your reaction, and thanks for listening to my favorite band. It's more southern rock than country but I can see the confusion.
@Rebel with a cause First time I heard these guys I was thrilled because I practically grew up on Southern rock, and not many folks have done it to where it roped me in. When you grow up on Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers it's tough to compete with that, but Blackberry Smoke has their own sound and they are seriously good. As for rural Virginia, that's some of the most beautiful land in this country. The Shenandoah Valley/Mountains are unreal. Now if the cops would only let me drive the way they do in West Virginia, I'd be golden. Ha! Welcome aboard the channel, BTW!
@@RockN2Country If you're into southern rock, it's still alive and thriving. A few younger bands out there. Do yourself a favor and checkout Whiskey Myers this one would be a good one to start with

Whole lotta truth jammed into those lyrics. Kicked me right in the feels. Yeah, I'm likin this alot. Thx for the upload Don, AND whoever to requested this one. Much love & support from Downunder.
@Jolly Bridge-Burner Glad it made you feel something, my friend down under!! Such a welcome addition to the channel you are--thank you!!
Blackberry smoke are great! I’ve always liked this song, and a couple other of their originals, but I think they’re one of the few bands in the world who are at their best doing covers. They can switch from Sabbath to Skynard without missing a beat. You should check out one of the videos of them covering Fairies wear boots, it’s great!
I've seen a Blackberry Smoke concert shirt that says "To Rock n Roll for Country, To Country for Rock n Roll" I think that describes them to a T. Great band! Thanks for the reaction.
@W Pc Glad you liked it, and you're right about the t-shirt!!
Are you sure that it isn't 'Too' rather than 'To'? Either way, it describes BBS to a T. (or should that be a 'Tee'?)😆
This song is everything i grew up with. My one out was the military or be stuck in the rice Fields
BlackBerry Smoke is Awesome all the way Around !
I'm born and raised in northeast Indiana. Small/medium town. Here you got three choices
Farm (that you have to be born into)
Factory (That you have to either know people to get in, or be treated like shit and payed accordingly)
Customer service (It dont pay hardly anything, and there is little to no chance for advancement)
Even if I won the lotto though, I would still live here. It has it's problems, but it's home.
hardee hat bet you caught BBS at Sweetwater in Ft Wayne less than a year ago. Or maybe when they played at the Elco Theatre in Elkhart? Great shows!
Song is about Lanett, Alabama. Old mill town in East Central Alabama
I grew up in a small town in Alabama and a lot of that could be my story.
WOW. Awesome song. What talent. I live in a one horse town and can relate.
Blackberry Smoke yeah they have a lot of good songs. I really like them!!
love these guys
Best band going today.
Great band listen to them live
Like I said before, this song gives me serious existential dread. I live and work on the family farm, I absolutely abhor farming. I can't leave though. Everything would go tits up in a heartbeat if I did. One Horse Town shakes me to my core.
@Dev Kimbro I feel ya, man. I had a period of about ten years where I had to stay in my business before I could get out, and it was brutal. But you still feel it, so that means you're still working on it in your mind and you may find a way to things that suit you better.
It sucks if you work a job you hate but especially in a field as hard as farming. I'm sad for you, bro. Hang in there.
Don, I'm the guy who recommend this song for you to review several years ago. I am certain that we have the exact same taste in music. Which is Country music with a rock edge (or vice versa).With that in mind, you might try out the song "The South". by group The Cadillac Three.
Can't wait to see them for the 4th time.
Came into this one thinking here we go again!!! But loved it!!!
@Tommy Ward Yes, I did it again!! ;-)
Great song and reaction. One of my favorites as well.
Of course it is... you know real music and I always appreciate your input! :-)
@@davidemswiler4351 Thanks David! :)
Montana, is basically a collection of " little towns ", so many young people go to college & then have to leave because there's no oppertunity, thats sad! Those that stay are willing to scratch, claw & toil to create a satisfying life. Anyway can definitely relate to this song, thanks Don! Peace❤🤗🥀
Love this group... Song is one of my favorite... Legit!!!!
got them bye mistake...this was the song....and now it is: THE SONG !!!!
i live in a small town work in coal mines 30 years i live in kentucky
Their song “Sleeping Dogs” is probably my favorite of their catalog.
The 'Live from Carolina' concert has a lot of behind the scene stuff of the band at home with their kids and cars and down home life style. I can't recommend it enough. It's on TH-cam look it up.
Two Horses, and one died hahahahs
Awesome Sanger
Way late to this party. Coming over from Thinking Theology….thought you might like Sanctified Woman. These guys are sly dogs, love them.
Great song,. imho
for me as an Austrian (not Australian Donald..), this is the best song of them....wow !!!
Hey I was listening to Jeff Beck a while back and I thing Charlie star with a little practice could be in the same conversation with the great ones
good reaction
You gotta check out Cross Canadian Ragweed - 17.
new Abo...
BBS Rocks!
Reminds me of Springsteen’s “ they bring you up to do just like your daddy done”.
Don, You are a really interesting person. I hope you write a book someday, maybe an autobiography.
I was watching a David Hoffman vid the other day about a guy name Herbie who drove from his home in Georgia to Nashville, hoping to get a deal. Little naive. David filmed his journey. Herbie did get a contract from a producer, but didn’t get famous. There was something in his story that made me comment with a poem I wrote in ‘76, when I was 16.
It looked very odd to see it typed out on TH-cam, and I got a kick out of that, so I’m going to do it again here. Should mention I was listening to a lot of Kris at the time.
I know you write, and don’t expect you to critique it, wouldn’t want to embarrass you:
So he lies there contemplating
His chances of fooling the world
When he’s only really trying
To find a substitute for the hating
Of a way he knows ain’t right
Cause he’s living without believing
And he thinks he should be leaving
He’d rather walk away than fight
With relief he turns to one night stands
And the bottle helps to ease the pain
Of the insanity of playing the game
He hides his tears in trembling hands
So in the comfort of darkness I hold him tight
And pray to God I never cling
See, to me that man is everything
But Lord, it’s gonna be another empty night.
@Kelly Hudson Thank you for the sweet thoughts---you make me think and blush, which is a first!!
RockN2Country 😊
Acoustic version is 9.8.
forgot to say that we are the ppl living in the woods thats why we can handle the fires much better.....so !
Super song!!!
Don’t really know for sure but to me I think the artist was saying he stuck it out and leave it in dad in his one horse town he had dreams but he didn’t have a bad life even though he didn’t follow those dreams. I really liked the song sometimes we win either way following our dreams are staying with her heart
Rome River Jam absolutely Rocks!
I’m glad they finally stepped out to mainstream, hope it treats them good!!!
GOOD MORNING DON . IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HEAR ANOTHER SIDE OF JOHNNY CASH . LISTEN TO HIS ALBUM BITTER TEARS . IT IS REALLY GOOD THANKS.LOVE TOO HEAR YOUR REACTIONS.

Didnt like the reaction rating he gave and things he said about Blackberry Smoke, I'm a 4 ever Arkansas fan of BBSmoke ♡ They r the Best Ever.
@Lisa Hammond Welcome aboard the channel, and WPS!! I did a bunch of reactions yesterday that will posted over the next two weeks, and for one of them I was wearing my Razorbacks cap! I like BBS a lot, so please hang in there with my ratings and you'll see how I do it. Happy Thanksgiving, and go Hogs!
