LYRICS:
I never get lonely
I got these ghosts to keep me company
I took the rearview off this old Ford so I only see in front of me
Now the past is out of sight and out of mind
Swore I changed, now I’m back chasing these white lines.

I’m just a long haired son of a sinner
Searching for new ways I can get gone
I’m a pedal to the highway if you ever wonder why we write these songs
‘Cause I’m only one drink away from the devil
I’m only one call away from home
Yeah, I’m somewhere in the middle
I guess I’m just a little
Right and wrong

These backroads got me
These pills pretend to be my friend
I’m done for the last time
I’m lying to myself again
I always say that
Now I’m on my way back here somehow
I should know by now

I’m just a long haired son of a sinner
Searching for new ways I can get gone
I’m a pedal to the highway if you ever wonder why we write these songs
‘Cause I’m only one drink away from the devil
I’m only one call away from home
Yeah, I’m somewhere in the middle
I guess I’m just a little
Right and wrong

Mistakes I made I paid for them in cash
Walked a million miles on broken glass
I’m feeling like I’m fading
My hearts been slowing breaking
Might pop a pill, and smoke and maybe drink
Talk to God and tell him what I think
At first He’s gonna hate me
But eventually He’ll save me

I’m just a long haired son of a sinner
Searching for new ways I can get gone
I’m a pedal to the highway if you ever wonder why we write these songs
‘Cause I’m only one drink away from the devil
I’m only one call away from home
Yeah, I’m somewhere in the middle
I guess I’m just a little
Right and wrong

    Pain is an international language - we put a lot of thought and time into picking every individual to play a part in this music video- to show that all walks of life - race - religion and background experience some sort of struggle - I hope this video means as much to you as it did us.

    "These pills pretend to be my friend." You are saving me jelly, I've been trying for a while. Seven days clean and sober this morning. I've listened to this song every day since I found it. Thank you Jelly. 3 weeks later: The outpouring of love and support here is crazy and I am so grateful for you all. It may not seem like much, but when I'm feeling weak, I come and read these comments, and it fortifies my resolve. God bless you all 🙏
  • My son is almost 6… I been clean 96 days. I just left treatment a week ago. Started over at sober living with no phone, no car, no job… but I walk to work with my head high now. 1 day at a time
  • Every time a person likes my comment I’ll come back and listen to it again 😉♥️
  • My father was murdered when i was just ten years old i am a product of the streets i struggle with alcohol and drugs i never said this out loud before this song gives me the courage to say it out loud and to not be ashamed of my demons! Thank you brother! I hope you know how much your music helps people like myself! Godbless !

    4 days sober today. This song never gets old for me. You can tell this man sings from the heart. There is hope through God. May His Glory be revealed to all.
  • My son is an alcoholic currently in jail, i pray everyday for him to get sober before i leave this world 🌎 maybe someone will relate but at least when hes in jail i know where he is and not laying in a ditch somewhere,.😢 Please pray for my son ❤🙏🙏🙏
  • @sandrabrown300
    I'm in pain right now struggling with alcohol addiction please pray for me please 😢
  • I’m just hearing this song today and it’s my first country song and artist I’ve heard. And I felt this. I started drinking when I was 15 or 16 but didn’t get bad until I was 18 at 21 I realized I was an alcoholic. I had my first kid at 21 I have 3 now and my kids didn’t spend their birthdays with me or never really wanted me to be there because I was always drunk and high. I promised and promised and promised I was gonna change one day, and I remember being so sick and not having any money and I would tell my wife “ok take me to get help” and she would and I would last a week at the detox center sick and on medication and I would get out and I would promise my self to try this time and I would last maybe 2 days sober and right back I would fall in that hole. My wife took our 3 kids and moved with her mom to Nevada and left me in Arizona. I was alone I went back to get help stayed sober after 3 months I got my wife and kids back I lasted another month sober and relapsed. In that short time I relapsed I lost everything I built in those 4 months my job my car our new apartment I had just got (we lived with my mom because I spent all my money on alcohol/drugs) and my freedom. I get out my family left I started drinking that night I got out I said I got nothing left why not? I got out on June 28 2021 on July 3rd is my birthday and I was drunk and my kids didn’t visit or say happy birthday. On July 4th I got to talk and see my kids and I was very drunk and my wife looked at me and said “why don’t you love yourself? Why won’t you change for us? You’re not a man?” And I looked at her and I said “take me”. And she did and man I knew it was coming! I got so sick in the detox I started hallucinating. I’ll be 31 and 2 years sober in July! And I know it’s a long road but I’m ready! And god willing I’ll be good!! My wife and kids tell me they love me all the time!! That’s all I need!! Sorry for the story lol!!
  • @user-zy1mf7ro8n
    6 months sober. My babygirl just turned 1 year old yesterday and I want to be a better person for her. All praise to the lord my creator🙏🏽🫶🏼. God bless.
  • @earsight1969
    I'm watching this in a rehab center right now I just began my journey on recovery from nights of vomiting blood and forcing more and more alcohol down my throat, the endless nights of hell and despair that my addiction has caused me and my family.. it helps me to know there are people like you who actually care about people like me.. makes me feel less alone in my battle, much love man and please keep doing this you're saving lives, ik you helped save mine at least 🙏
  • This song makes me wanna make that call to go home , but there’s no place to go home to. Lost my mother to murder back in 2013 and no matter what I’ve done she’d always leave the porch light in for me . Now it’s 2023 and this past may I lost my father to pancreatic cancer and it just destroyed me . There’s nobody in my life to pick up the phone and say how’s it going ? I’m just waiting to go to my real home when God calls me home . This life flies by like a rocket ship . Way more years behind me than they are in front of me . Lord look down on us sinners and have mercy when it’s our time .
  • @clovercage
    Life was so different when this came out..I wish that one day Jelly listens to my music and we make a hit song together. God bless everyone going through it like me. Better days are coming....
  • @Debraleah64
    30 days sober ! Thank you Jesus never looking back
  • @davidlove1335
    I had never heard of Jelly Roll until today. Fantastic song! More country in message than the pop/country cookie cutter singers that are so promoted these days.
  • @WaltH-ws5ll
    Yep 2024 still fighting these demons, bro u pulling heart strings on this country boy
  • @scm0717
    I could pick up a cigarette right now after 14 years watching this. I'd probably be drinking if I wasn't on antidepressants, or maybe not here at all. Perfect Jelly Roll.
