- Jerry Lee Lewis - Life is like a mountain railroad. Live in London England 1983
Jerry Lee Lewis, The Killer live in the U.K. at the Hammersmith Odeon in April 1983.
This sensational performance was a sell out.
Old and young alike filled the venue to Rock the night away. - Hudba
been watching videos of JLL for three days. What an immense talent. RIP Killer
RIP Jerry Lee. You were one of the ALL time greats!
And now, Jimmy Swaggart has passed also. So close in weeks behind JLL. Uncanny coincidence.
Jimmy Swaggart is still alive. Maybe thinking about their other cousin Mickey Gilly
The joy he gets from singing is plain to see in his face
Yes it is his solace
Once in awhile, a singer sings a song that is perfect for them. This is one of those times.
Seems to me that a whole lot of songs were " perfect " for him..
@@ngzcaz He is a very versatile singer.
elvis, johnny cash, carl perkins, roy orbison .. who would have ever given odds that JLL would be the last man standing ... by a decade or two!
I wish Jerry Lee Lewis many many more years. One thing in my life time is to see to see Jerry Lee live and I hope that I get to. I love Jerry and his music. A talent that is incomparable and a once in a lifetime.🙏🎹
The Good Lord knows it🙂

Truth
And the GOAT!!
He sings gospel songs so well. I love listening to Jerry Lee.
Jerry Lee God bless you and your family always. I absolutely love listening to you play the piano.
Amen.☁️🎺👼💒🙏🌹
Hi Sharon, have you got the CD of 'THE BOYS FROM FERRIDAY' gospel album with Jimmy Lee yet, and do you know anything about the gospel album he recorded with the 'McCRARY SISTERS' about two years ago. God bless.
Jerry Lee is one of the most talented men to ever take a stage. His piano skill was unmatched.
No I'm afraid not his cousin jimmy swaggart and him play exactly the same. They both grew up in the same pentacostal church. With saved pentacostal mother's.

Le meilleur Le roi du ROCK 😇🇨🇵
Always love to see JLL perform with Kenny 🙏🎶🙏
Nobody in the world will ever,in life or death beat Jerry Lee Lewis. Absolutely amazing .
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face
Not only does nobody play the piano like Jerry Lee, there’s never been a musical brain that would’ve thought of playing that stuff. Absolutely unique and let’s not get started on his singing.
I know I listen in complete amazement! He felt it all with his soul!
Yes! still a gr8 pianist and his music certainly speaks his truth I'd say🙏 🌈 🤔 🌿 🕊⚘️ 👌
Great times, song, and singer.
JUST LISTEN TO THAT GREAT INSTRAMENTAL , I LOVE IT .
No one sings and plays the piano like Jerry Lee. I love and admire this man so much ❤❤❤
I like the piano solo at 2:38
Thank you Jerry. You’ve given me many years of pleasure God be with you always ✝️✝️✝️
Jerry Lee is Jerry Lee and there ain't no other. I saw him in the Shrine Mosque springfield Missouri 1969. First act was Hank Jr. 2nd was Loretta Lynn. With each act the crowd was getting more and more revved up. Jerry Lee came out, stood at the piano, kicked the piano bench back, started POUNDING the piano, and said. YOU KNOW WHO IS THE STAR OF THIS SHOW! and believe me buddy...we all Knew! Man he took control of that crowd and did not let them down. What an original.
Life is like a mountain railroad
With an engineer so brave
We must make this run successful
From the cradle to the grave
Watch the curves, the fills the tunnels
Never falter, never fail
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail
Oh, blessed Savior, thou wilt guide us
Til we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In God's grace forever more
As you roll across the trestle
Spanning Jordan's swelling tide
You behold the union depot
Into which your train will glide
There you'll meet the superintendent
God the Father, God the Son
With a hearty, joyous greeting
Weary pilgrim, welcome home
I was going to try to find the lyrics on my own. Thanks for saving me some time.
@@TheAvenstar hi welcome nice to see lyrics I think
..xx
I love this song by Jerry Lee. He sings his part with such feeling. It is one of my favorites. No other sings it like him. God bless you Jerry Lee and congratulations to a life well done.
Thank you for posting the lyrics, Margaret. I want to memorize them. You make it so easy to do.

Doesn't need anything
Just him and his piano
An all time great....good on u Jerry Lee
I “discovered” Jerry Lee in 1968. I was 16. First song I heard... “One Has My Name”..... I think it was a cover of Ray Charles. I was captivated. A voice on the radio. That began a fifty year near obsession with the talent and greatness of this man. It is impossible to tire of listening to Jerry Lee Lewis. There is no American artist (not even the great Ray Charles) that can come close. He likes to say, “It was God that give me ma' talent. He can cut my water off at any time”. From John Lennon to Kris Kristofferson to Bruce Springsteen ....including Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins... (and hundreds more).... all have paid tribute to JLL as the greatest and most creative popular music artist of all time.... period!
Thank God for You-Tube so we can watch a huge amount of videos of Jerry Lee over and over and over.
Will say it again 11 months later. Love this. Wish Wayne Daniel could see it!!!
talentueux Jerry extraordinaire aux piano 🎹 🎹 et ta voix sublime jadoooore je kiffe je t'aime tellement Merci que du bonheur à t'écouter bizous 🤩😍🥰🥰❤❤❤❤❤💯💯💋💋🙏🏻
No one can ever sing like Jerry Lee
Perfect!
Super. . .no words to describe JLL. :)
One of the greatest pianists since the piano was invented. And I have seen Horowitz, Arrau and Rubinstein, saw Rubenstein 4 times and I would like to have seen him sit on the keyboard and hit it with his feet and stay on key like Jerry Lee.
Jerry lee..live Great
Had the original "Keep Your Hand on the Throttle" by Brother Rodney from 1950. Jerry no doubt heard this original at some point as all those Southern folk back in the day. Jerry makes it his own.
His piano is unmatched, you go bud.....
Wow! He always surprises.
I'm back listening to this great song by the great Jerry Lee Lewis 6-7-20...God Bless you JLL
And a Blessing for YOU Ma'am.
The Killer really sang Gospel well and did it suit his style. Love this, love the piano - unique, just unique.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face
Definitely greatest piano player ever.....sound all his own.
This song is so melodic. Pianos were made for Jerry Lee to play. Have loved his music since the 60's.
SANG, MY MAN, SANG THAT SONG!!
So cool and the greatest talent!
Damn! I love this man! He was right when he said he was the best!
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face
Super,j’aime !!!! Merci
Amazing that he is still with us today!
WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From a mad keen 76yo Aussie fan.
Had the pleasure to see Jerry Lee live in Melbourne,Australia in the early 60;s & he was pure dynamite.
Jerry simulated shagging the upright microphone & the teeny-boppers loved this & screamed for more.
Never will forget that concert.
What a time it would've been if Jerry, Jimmy, and micky had done music together.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face
That solo is ridiculously complex. Love the last second callback to the opening figure. Cannot be duplicated.
Talented and good people like Jerry Lee are a special gift from God to all of us
He’s so smooth
Still killin em killer’ God bless ya Jerry Lee
Thank you so much for bringing the timeless talent if Jerry Lee to us in "the Audience"! What a pleasure!! 😊
Saw him live twice in South Florida......so Awesome.......😍
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face
Definitely the best version of this song that Ive ever heard
What a performer when they made him they broke the mould. RIP.
The absolute KING no matter what he sings
Jerry Lee Was my Daddy's idol.The best paino I have ever heard.
it's like the piano flows out of his fingers. Magic!
Saw him live, short performance but long in my memory...
The first gospel song that I’ve heard him sing. He definitely owns that piano !
This takes me back to the Dollywood train. They would play this song on there 😁
One of my all time favorites, both the singer and the song. :-) Nobody can play piano like ole' Jerry Lee.
mickey can
jims1942 My all time favourite Rock and Roll Rascal Jerry Lee Lewis
@@jayjohns2657 Micky Gilley and Jerry Lee are 1st cousins and both learned to play on the same piano. As did their other 1st cousin who was a famous televangelist.
You can actually hear a lot of the same playing style between them. I love them both.
This is not some of his best piano playing.
Love Jerry Lee!!!
It's been said often of people being able to sing the phonebook... Include Jerry Lee. And his playing ? Pretty sure even he doesn't know what notes are coming next.. but they keep coming..
It don't make no difference how high Jerry Lee is, if he can sit he can sing and play.
They'll never be another...My Mother loved you so. I'm 59 & grew up on your music...Thank You For The Memories. Your work here is done...🌹✨🎹🙌🏽✝️🙌🏽🎹✨🌹🎶🕊️
Man, what a talent, fucking brilliant, love ya Killer, God bless!!!
You’re home now Jerry!!! Thank you again for sharing you’re God given gifts with us✝️✝️✝️✝️
The best entertainer Ive every seen live in concert. Im from Louisiana.
sr : I sold blood (plasma) to get the money to go see & hear him. God answers prayers & I became JLL's opening act for a time (others as well).
Looking at Jerry here in 1983, makes one wonder how he made it through '85, 86, and so on until now, 2019 when I am sat here typing, a legend, and, as they say, a LIVING legend.
And in 25/5/2020 🙏💚 rock on Jerry Lee
@@dougfergusson The killer dumbfounded everyone, especially Shaun Levy who wrote a book a few years ago obviously thinking it would be a best-seller 'cos he though good ole Jerry was dying, keep upsetting them Jerry.
@@dougfergusson and in 20.12.2020
He could never get away from God’s love and call on his life😔❤️🙏
Jerry Lee I hope you and Micky are both playing the hell out of the piano in heaven tonight.
I'm back, just can not get enough of this beautiful song and that amazing voice of Jerry Lee's. love it it so much 7-11-19. prayers for Jerry Lee's full / speedy recovery from his stroke. God Bless you Jerry Lee
one of my favorite songs being sung by the great Jerry Le. love it & Jerry Lee his music will live o forever. 7-27-20
Huge loss to us this week. Mourning here in Louisiana. This is a fabulous video. Thank you. Just love it. Lifetime fan but missed this one.
Are you from Ferriday?
No.. About 2 hrs south.of there in Cajun country, Hank.
Absolutely love this!
Wow what a dude. He awsome.
My Bro doesn't usually like my favorite songs, but he loved this one.
Say what you will but Jerry Lee is the man !
ds: good. i pray he marries a loved one or your.
Jerry Lee has no peer. He is a one of a kind great.
One of the founding fathers of rock. If they had a Mt Rushmore of rock singers, it would be Elvis, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and the Killer.
The one and only ROCKIN ROLL HALL OF FAME (, ONE OF A KIND) THE KILLER!!! (JERRY LEE LEWIS) GOD BLESS HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER ROCKIN RAY) SANTA BARBARA/GOLETA/ RIVERSIDE/ PALM SPRINGS /INDIO CALIFORNIA ROCK ON ROCK AND ROLL IS MENT TO STAY IT WILL NEVER DIE!!!
Love the man, seen him live, funny thing is, he looks better now than he did then, a true survivor.
he deff is in reegards of a white musician who can sing with soul! once elvis linked up it was a rap for pop music! jerrys influence come frome little richard and fats from his home of lousiana. mixed with his background as piano in baptist churchs like his cousin !
@@ariellalocalwaves Jerry's influence came not from Richard nor from Fats but from the black musicians who frequented Haney's Big House on chocolate corner where, as youngsters, Jerry and Jimmy Lee Swaggart would sneak up and listen, his cousin Mickey Gilley was for a while more popular than Jerry Lee, but, true talent will and did, in the end, prevail.
Wonderful ❤
just can not get enough of his amazing voice and playing that piano ,Love the Legend JLL God Bless you & your family 6-9-19
such a beautiful song and beautiful voice Jerry Lee, & a mighty great piano player love it..6-29-19
Thanks for all the rocking times. Killer. TX
A successful "run " ain't got anything to do with feet
unless your tapping them to this timeless genius !
Love this song to & Jerry Lee 11-20-20 God Bless you Jerry & thank you for all the great music you give us...
He's absolutely brilliant. You just gotta tune out his half-mad rambling
Anointed. He lost his soul & the Devil came calling.
@@7550375503 But he came back to God many times.
Seen him four times never the same show.Always the entertainer
I miss you so much, Christopher. 5/17/19, Mom
The best piano player ever was. And a great singer to boot.
Carol he has two cousins equally proficient. jimmy Swaggart and Mickey gilly
He has cousins....none of which can play a piano anywhere near as good as him. What planet are you from to actually say some crap about Jimmy and Mickey being anywhere near the level of talent as Jerry? There's literally videos of Jerry and Mickey beside each other on a piano...Mickey and Jimmy COMBINED with both hands can NOT do what Jerry Lee Lewis does with his left hand. No one can!
2:22 That MOTHER------!!! SLAYED!!😨 that piano.
To be blessed with one extraordinary gift is rare
To blessed with two extraordinary gifts is from the hands of god
Sure is funny how you guys didn't like him the first time he crossed the pond to visit England?? Something about who he loved and married?? Was completely legal here in the US, but you guys couldn't just appreciate him for his music??
You beat me to it. The damn bucktooth British fools who we made a fool of on multiple occasions thought and still do think the own Jerry Lee and are his biggest fans. Give me a damn break. Everybody in Dixie aka thr good ol South below the Mason Dizon line knows who the real King of Rock and Roll is, the Last Man Standing, and the best piano playing entertainer and showman to ever exist. Fuck the UK, and Long live Louisiana and its beautiful people!
LOVE YOU JERRY
RIP Jerry Lee Lewis
Jerry Lee Lewis will always have hit songs out there
He was very good at rock and roll. He became GREAT at country.
If perfection is a state of mind , then blissful shores are the place to swim .
Simply THE BEST!!!
Love this version from one of the best Killer-shows ever.
Thomas Holm nitten
Patsy Cline does the best version
@@alfching2499 wrong
JLL is the Real king
Beautiful voice!
