Lyrics:
Carrying the weight of the world uphill
Keep on running so you don’t stand still
Ice cream meltin’ on the red dirt race track
Walking through the halls with a bullet proof backpack
Ain’t old enough to buy your own cold beer
Y’all ain’t the ones who make the rules ‘round here
Eat your peas and say your prayers
Hush your mouth and brush your hair
Who do you think you are kid
Bare feet on the tar kid
Crashing daddy’s car kid
Grow up fast like your momma did
Teenage baby had a baby
All them dreams turn into maybe
Maybe’s now a healthy never
Forever young ain’t young forever
Ain’t that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke’s on you
Who are you
Trying to
Kid
Fighting with a cast ‘round a half broke wrist
Skin on the road from a handlebar twist
Can’t make sense of the story they gave us
Money won’t do it but the Lord might save us
All sins are forgiven
Jesus on the walls
Hell Uncle Mike’s in heaven
And there ain’t no Santa Claus
Who do you think you are kid
Bare feet on the tar kid
Crashing daddy’s car kid
Grow up fast like your momma did
Teenage baby had a baby
All them dreams turn into maybe
Maybe’s now a healthy never
Forever young ain’t young forever
Ain’t that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke’s on you
Who are you
Trying to
Kid
Who do you think you are, kid
Who do you think you are kid… You ain’t bound to go far kid…
Tell me how’d you get that scar, kid?… Sorry life’s so hard kid…
Ain’t that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke’s on you
Who are you
Who are you
Who are you
Trying to
Kid

One of the best performers and song writers on this planet. I just love his work.
Same!
I agree brother. This guy just blows me away. Love every single song. Phenomenal, once in a generation kinda talent
Great song writer absolutely , and such a difference voice, I really like it
Powerful song about, to me, the screwed up World our kids are inheriting from us. As a Father of teenagers, this one hit hard. I hope one day they’ll forgive us.
@@virginiacruiser.7989Amen brother. I feel the same as you.
This cat is a generational talent, and he’s singing in a bunk bed with what appears to be a monitor when you have little kids. It just fits the narrative. Dude rips your heart out.
“Hell, Uncle Mike’s in Heaven & there ain’t no Santa Claus…” Hits me every time.
Stephen Wilson Jr. can tell a more poignant, vivid story with only a weathered guitar and a voice in 3 minutes than most Hollywood directors can in 3 hours with A list actors and an unlimited budget.
Amen Brother!
That's no normal weathered old guitar. It's an epic instrument blessed by the God's! The sound of his guitar is moving. Gives me goosebumps!
This man's songs are the best stories since Waylon.. I said what I said.
100 %
I'm from Texas and I ain't hating that.
All them dreams turn in maybes. Maybes now a health never. Forever young ain’t young forever.
My favorite lyrics on the album
Legitimately some of my all time favorite lyrics now
Yup a solid grouping here....i like the lyric on my fathers son...."the tree don't grow far from the apple! SWJ is a master personificator!
Son of dad is an incredible album
John Denver would be a fan
I’m on my 5th go… This dude pulls out our souls. The nastalgia is just about too overwhelming. He sings of a time in America that is long gone🥲
You got that right. I miss the good ol days, now everything is inverted, people are soft and too shiny, boys are girls,egg I think I catch my drift. How did we(wholesome ignorance) let so much infiltrate our everything? Well I've been up nights looking for the exact word. DISTRACTION! that's my final answer lol. This next group of young adults are gonna have an eye opener. 🤦
Hey I'm 29 getting ready to be 30 and I can relate to almost every one of his songs so far.
Plus I'm from Central Indiana
All of his songs are like this. Listen like 4-10 times in a row
30 in August couldnt agree more@@ironicheroism6928
"All them dreams turned into maybe, and maybe now is a healthy never. Forever young aint young forever..." were punches right to the face.
You sir are definitely criminally underrated!!!!
I bawled my fucking eyes out to this song a few times before I could listen all the way through. Hit me hard. Wasn’t ready for that. 😅
Same😢
You are the BEST singer songwriter out right now! Love your music brother, keep on keeping on...
lol
Dude plays tf out that guitar so nonchalantly. An sings with feeling. This is real music an he deserves more recognition. Shows how fake the world has become. Got to rap about drugs crime or fast women. Hate modern times..
“Maybe is now a healthy never” crushed me…
Your tunes are phenomenal.
My artist of the year vote right here.
Most underrated for sure. Every song hits my soul and brings back memories.
This guy is so underrated!!!! I just remember he’s the same guy that sang year to be young and he knows how to stir up your soul.. truly knows how to take you back through your own life good and bad nostalgia and that’s what real music does hell that’s what real art does period
I always look forward to your music! 🤘 Make Indiana proud!
Every time he says "sorry life's so hard kid" I hear myself, in my head, saying that to my son, while simultaneously hearing it from my father, who passed away just a few months ago.
On a side note, Lori Mckenna appears to be credited with co-writing this song. The lyrics actually caused me to look and see if she had some hand in this. It's an amazing song.
I listen to this song over and over every day. It hasn't lost a second of magic. Gives me goosebumps each time, and waters up my eyes. One of the greatest most touching songs I've heard in my life.
Gold. Perfect.
I’ve listened to the album on loop countless times. While every song is phenomenal, this one steals the cake for me. Makes me cry every time I listen to it. “How’d you get that scar kid?” Stephen, you are a once in a lifetime artist and an absolute master of the craft.
I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t be a fan. Great vocals and a great song this is a keeper.
Generational talent !!
Incredible, as always. Thank you for every note, every line and every song.
Most amazing song writer. Thank you.. your lyrics run deep
Thank you for creating such real and beautiful music for us! One love! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Me and my dog listen to you each night
Unreal!! Your songwriting blows me away!! And the sound you got created with that guitar is something else!! Forever a fan!
I was like…jeez this feller is a callahan too lol STEPHEN WILSON JR IS PHENOMENAL!!!
Absolutely the most talented songwriter and performer in many years.
SUCH AN AWESOME SONG! SWJ, you rock, my friend!!!
I love the open chords and nylon string sound, and obviously Stephen’s voice and lyrics! So good
The lyrics are top of the world in every song, so pure and so true, takes you back to exactly where you were in the world in every song and relive it for a moment .. thanks for the time travel travels Stephen ... Love from Australia
I left on NCL Midland Last Resort out of Miami , I went to hear Orvile Peck & Midland. I saw Stephen for the first time on the ship. I fell in love with his voice, music, and words to his music. What a awesome time. Thanks for the terrific music.
So taken aback by your music! You are in the annals of one of all time greatest musicians! You have changed the world with your music and message unlike any other! God has anointed your head with oil and your cup will overflow!
I just recently discovered this man and his music from tiktok. First artist in ages to actually make me feel something. I cannot stop listening. He's one of the few people who rlare actually better live than in studio.
Literally found your channel by accident through this video and it just came out not even an hour ago. Absolute magic of a song!
One of the most well written songs I’ve heard in a long time.
Stuck here in the land of sausage,cheese,beer and music festivals..
Please come to Wisconsin soon
Such a beautiful man. Thank you for helping a part of my soul that I didn’t need healing ❤
This man is a legend please share his work with everyone 👌
Amazing one of the best talent I've seen on Jules Holland TV show in Portsmouth UK. Amazing lyrics and plucking skills.
Really hits home right now
Just discovered Steven today. Simply incredible.
Holy f-k!!! Why have I never heard of this guy? Heard “Hometown” on Fire Country and it brought me down a rabbit hole that led me here… where I’ve stopped and pushed replay four times now. Wow. Just… wow. Heart and brain in a blender kinda wow. This joint is a journey back through life.
Awesome! Please come to the Brown County Music Center in Nashville, IN :) :) :)
Yesss love a new track by swj oeace to ye hold onto your soul dont sell it off
So moving. I’m going through some grief right now. Thank you for this gift. 🙏❤️🩹
Best song on this album - American Gothic a close second - in love with this whole album
I'm back again for another comment! I just can't get over how good this is, original, tasteful, beautifully crafted, seemingly performed with ease, melancholy but uplifting at the same time, deep, meaningful, powerful, nostalgic, perfect, I'm running out of words to describe it lol. Just brilliant!
Caught it on my morning scroll, now I'm 😭 no control. Good shit.
Makes my eyes fill up with nostalgia…and I love it..I love this whole fucking vibe
Amazing Stephen, love this version
You have the most honest and beautiful songwriting.❤
We need this on spotify Asap 🔥🔥
Only the fourth song I've listened to of his (fathers son made me cry , gotta admit) but every one so damn far is just unbelievable
Another absolute masterpiece. Inspirational and entertaining in so many ways. Wondering how that song just cleared my childhood crap out in one listen 🤷♂️🙏
Looking forward to seeing you in Belfast
I just saw him at Railbird , absolutely amazing!!! Rock on Stephen Wilson Jr
His music gives me a similar vibe as Springsteen’s Nebraska
I saw you in a YT ad last night for the first time with this video and I was sold right away!
This is real music
See ye Saturday Dublin Ireland(eiRe) can't wait the cadillac three also
My favorite song of yours is Henry, that was my father’s name, makes me think of him, I can’t wait to see you at Rooster Tail this year! ❤
The best song I’ve heard in a really long time
Absolutely awesome. My favorite musician ever! We all love SWJ! Keep up the astonishing work!!
The relevance SWJ injects inside each and every one of his creations is astounding! I mean really, if you're fortunate enough to have been involved in any of the instances Steven depicts in this song, and damn near every other sonic sweetness.....well then, you're lucky enough!
he’s done it again
Absolutely amazing! I love the studio version but I feel like the acoustic really gives the lyrics such a weight to them
Would LOVE to see him on JRE!
Dang. That just gave me the chills
doesn’t get realer than this damn
Every track just gets better. Thanks Stephen
Once again, perfect lyrics. ❤
Dude you unlock so many memories with your music. Hail friend!
Your music soothes my aching heart.
Hey man. Your music is fantastic. You sound excellent live/acoustic. Great album, keep it going.
Im seeing him in cardiff in 2 weeks with cadillac three and i got to be honest im only going for him.....absolute generational talent...his songwriting is up there with anyone making music today.... uncle mikes in heaven and there aint no santa claus.... WHAT!!! WHAT A LYRIC❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would love to hear him cover Who's gonna fill their shoes
Great song.
Ain’t about to go far kid. That hopeless pragmatic cold little line drove me to tears. This whole piece is just amazingly deep

Creativity and talent on a level of its own. He truly has the favor of God in Heaven…
This was nothing short of spectacular !!!
Your guitar has a very distinctive sound, like Willie’s. I love it!
It sounds good, looks like it has a few stories to tell also.
Great stuff. Makes me want to leave daily life and go be a roadie.
Stephen Wilson Jr’s songs take the universal struggles and pain of life and spins them into something beautiful and raw. Please keep making music that weaves our shared experiences into one. We will keep listening!
That is a great song. Man! I hope you get big.
I can not get enough!🫠
