Текст песни This Old Heart - Commentary - Midland

I know a lot of people are excited for Midland's debut album, it is
Out now, it's called On the Rocks, and we're gettin' to go through
Every song on the album with the guys, and I know you guys had a
Hand in writing every song on this album, in fact, you all, all
Three, wrote every single song on the album except for "Check
Cash, and Country," which Jess wrote, and then this next one, "This
Old Heart," Cameron were you just off doing something else that day?

My dog died, Stewie

Oh gosh

RIP Stewie

I didn't, I wasn't there for that. But you know what, I, I, uh
Stand by, and I won't talk too much on this 'cause I didn't
Write it, but I do believe in the, I believe that obviously
Certain things happen for a reason, and had I been involved in
That write, the song wouldn't have came out like that, you know
And I believe that song is, uh, it's one of my favorite songs of
The album, it's a near-perfect song, I'm glad I wasn't around
To steer it in any other direction than the way that it came out

Wow

Yeah, we wrote that with Jonathan Singleton and David Lee Murphy
We're huge fans of David Lee Murphy, we forced him against
His will to play "Dust on the Bottle" for us on acoustic guitar
And that song for some reason always reminds me of, of "Dust
On the Bottle" a little bit. It's just a good barroom romper
It's really fun to play live, it's, it's a staple in our live
Set, something I always look forward to when I see it coming
Up on the set list, um, we, we can really rock that one out

Might be a little autobiographical for my life, it feels like
Some, sometimes, when that song comes up. I always enjoyed
Singing it, and I think it's a really cool, uh, vocal
Showcase for us, I love, I love the harmonies on that song

Well, I was gonna ask if there is one line in there that I just
Wondered if it was, uh, autobiographical at all, uh, "world class
Bender that coulda put you in Folsom," any of you been that close?

Uh, yeah, like two or three times this week

Uh, yeah

Yeah, no, I mean seriously, I mean, you know, the three of
Us are, again, I'm not sitting here making, like, claims
Like "we're the craziest," you know, but we've all been
Hellman, and we're all like descendants of kind of Hellman
And, uh, we have, we have cut some rugs, we have shut some
Places down, we've been kicked out of, of many, many of them

We're the rug cutters

Our blood boils

In and around jail

We're good people, good moral people
But we will get a little bit wild

I can vouch for that, and, uh, when you do decide to get wild
Look out. And here's another song off of Midland's debut
Album, this is called "This Old Heart" on Big Machine Radio
