lyrics
Going Down Grinnin'
Justin Wells
I thought I did good, but you be the judge
I closed that door and bit back the grudge
Like a worn-out coat in the pouring rain
I'll take what I can to knock back the pain
You can hate me, Lord, for all my sinnin'
But I swear to God, I'm going down grinnin'
I'll pass a paved road, wherever it goes
Give me a destination that nobody knows
I'll go poor and I'll go young
By the battered beat of a beat-down drum
You can hate me, Lord, for all my sinnin'
But I swear to God, I'm going down grinnin'
If a needle in a haystack is the only chance I'll have
You can burn it to the ground for all I care
And take what's left behind of my self and throw it all away
I ain't leavin'
Til I'm done
There's a moral here, but it slipped my mind
Like a misspent youth, I left it behind
A few years older, the more I've learned
You can wait in line and never get a turn
But I won't sit and wait for the ending
I swear to God, I'm going down grinnin'
If a needle in a haystack is the only chance I'll have
You can burn it to the ground for all I care
And take what's left behind of my self and throw it all away
I ain't leavin'
Til I'm done
I ain't leavin'
Til I'm done
If a needle in a haystack is the only chance I'll have
You can burn it to the ground for all I care
And take what's left behind of my self and throw it all away
I ain't leavin'
Til I'm done
I ain't leavin'
Til I'm done
I ain't leavin'
Til I'm done

A very clever songwriter and an album that bears many, many repeat listens. Worth the price for the Little Feat reference (in Tehachapi) alone, but it's her way with an image that sticks longest. "You left the building in a flurry / Had your boots on in the house." Caoimhín
Margo Price's latest album tackles loss, failure, and freedom over lush pop, psychedelic country, and rock arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 13, 2023
