Who’s in charge of this wayward bus
Has everyone fallen asleep at once
The driver’s not speaking and I’m not believing that he’s
Even in front
Without any sound in a record-breaking rush
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
We’re too stoned to notice there’s no road left to be tucked
Down under the wheels that have long since abandoned us
Like riderless horses they’re all returning back
To wherever they’re from
It’s impossible now that we’ll be anything but crushed
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
The fuel line is leaking and the fumes are now too much
The rescue is leaving having not been brave enough
The guide book we’re sharing has ended with saying
You’ll do whatever you must
No sign of the ground or a deal left to be struck
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up
I’ll let you down but I will not give you up

The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'.
Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was. tideracer

Just a warm, easy listen. The love for the songs is apparent. Takes me back to days spent working on my car in the driveway in SoCal. Hope they do another one cause I'm gonna wear this on out. Aloha beauishere

Wonderful... some of Hiatt's best songs are here. I've been a fan since Riding with the King. This is gloriously played, too. What a band. anthonytoner
