IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THAT GOOD
(Tommy Womack/Will Kimbrough)
It doesn’t have to be that good – it just has to be
You walk around in circles – you fall eventually
Just try sitting down – and listen to your breath
No matter what your life is like – it beats the pants off death
It doesn’t have to be that good
It doesn’t have the be that good
It doesn’t have to be that bad
Baby take a walk with me – I don’t know where we’ll go
You got a stack of bills – I got a yard to mow
It’ll all be there waitin’ – when we return to see
It doesn’t have to be that good – it just has to be
It doesn’t have to be that good
It doesn’t have the be that good
It doesn’t have to be that bad
Baby come to bed with me – the kid’ll be alright
He’s playing that Nintendo Wii – if we let him, he’ll play all night
Let’s beg, borrow and steal – make some time to feel
Then count up all our problems that – aren’t even real
It doesn’t have to be that good
It doesn’t have the be that good
It doesn’t have to be that bad
It doesn’t have to be that bad
It doesn’t have to be that bad

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off.
felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery.
thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness

As I listen to this album more and more I start discover aspects that I hadn't felt before. My love for every individual track continues to grow, but Change has remained in my heart as a deep drive to get me through the day. seonghi
