I've always been a religious man, I've always been a religious man
but I met the banker and it felt like sin, he turned my bailout down
The Banker Man, he let into me, let into me, let into me
The Banker Man, he let into me and spread my name around
He thinks I ain't got a lick of sense cause I talk slow and my money's spent
Now, I ain't the type to hold it against, but he better stay off my farm
Cause it was my Daddy's and his Daddy's before
and his Daddy's before and his Daddy's before
Five generations and an unlocked door and a loaded burglar alarm.

Lots of pictures of my purdy family, lots of pictures of my purdy family
lots of pictures of my purdy family in the house where I was born.
House has stood through five tornadoes,
Droughts, floods, and five tornadoes.
I'd rather wrastle an alligator than to face the Banker's scorn
Cause he won't even look me in the eye
He just takes my land and apologize,
with pen, paper, and a friendly smile, he says the deed is done.
The sound you hear is my Daddy spinning, The sound you hear is my Daddy spinning
The sound you hear is my Daddy spinning over what the Banker done.

Like to invite him for some pot roast beef and mashed potatoes and sweet tea
follow it up with some banana pudding and a walk around the farm
Show him the view from McGee Town Hill
Let him stand in my shoes and see how it feels
to lose the last thing on earth that's real
I'd rather lose my legs and arms

Bury his body in the old sink hole Bury his body in the old sink hole
Bury his body in the old sink hole under cold November sky
Then damned if I wouldn't go to church on Sunday
Damned if I wouldn't go to church on Sunday
Damned if I wouldn't go to church on Sunday
and look the Preacher in the eye.

Great righteous rage directed where it belongs!
Five ter-nadas and lick of sense!
I think this is ripping and searing.

Oh naive listener... rock 'n roll has always been political, whether you realize it or not. Or whether you fail to acknowledge it. Countless songs about rebelling against:
One's parents
Your boss
Your ex gf/bf
The system: governments, big business, organized religion, etc.
The complacency of suburban life
...And countless other examples.

Sounds like you just want to put your blinders on, drink your beer, burp out a song, and scream "play Freebird!"
from Matdor by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs to this. excellente!
Amazing studio stuff when Isbell was in the band. Decoration Day, Southern Rock Opera, Pizza Deliverance andThe Dirty South ROCK. Southern rock that it. NOT Skynyrd or Allmans, but their own style. Excellent story telling lyrics. A great band LIVE. I live in SC, so they play around our area more than other parts. But see them if you can. Bring some JD and PBR! 
MORE DBT, PLEASE!!

Patterson Hood who is singing this track, his dad was the bass player for Muscle Schoals studio. Played on a lot of classic tracks. There's a doc that tells the story that is worth a watch.

I think they're fine but "It's stuff that frat boys turned-financial planners think is totally awesome rock" is a funny line! 🤣
Not my fav DBT song.....but still a good edgy groove.  Glad for the diversity that RP brings to the interweb.  Long live RP!

Sorry to hear you don't like 'em.
But your analysis is way off the mark. A little research led me to Muscle Shoals, birthplace of some incredible stuff: Wilson Pickett, Aretha, The Staple Singers, plus some white folks too: 
Rolling Stones, Traffic, Bob Seger, Elton John, Boz Scaggs, Willie Nelson, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, Dr. Hook, Elkie Brooks, Millie Jackson, Julian Lennon, and Glenn Frey.
(Cut-n-pasted from Wiki)

And a little band called Lynyrd Skynyrd, whose legendary 'feud' with Neil Young was all for show - Ronnie wrote 'Southern Man' as a good-natured rejoinder to Neil's (well-earned) criticism of events in the Deep South and Alabama in particular. Mr Young loved the song, by the way.

DBT are direct descendants of LS and the Muscle Shoals scene - their songs include many references to them. AND reference a lot of the horrible $hit that has happened in Alabama. Google 'Marion Alabama' - events there led directly to the Selma march. DBT do not shy away from the ugliest elements of southern history.

Full disclaimer: I grew up in Montgomery.
Peace,

I wonder if that Georgian boy thinks American Band and The Unraveling are frat boy stuff / finance bro stuff.
See how this could work in a small saloon.

Have to agree with Tippster, here. I love this band, particularly their live shows. Just saw them play at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park and they blew the roof off. I'm no music connoisseur but keep my ears and mind open to anything. Sure glad to hear Patterson and Mike (and the occasional song with Shona) every once in a while on RP.

 Sad, so sad, to read this poorly written h8 filled screed.  Disappointed.

As a Georgian, maybe you should focus on making your state a better place.
Much like DBT has been doing for a quarter of a century and particularly of late.
You know, less racism, hatred, and bro-country.

I've always loved the mean guitars, snarling vocals, righteous anger, and steam-train chugging drums in this; reminds me a lot of our local favorite band, Gasoline Lollipops!
Good Tune!

Being a "religious man" doesn't give you a pass.

The way to get the banker off your land is to figure out how to renegotiate. Maybe with the help of the other farmers, to organize, and get sponsorships, while thinking of what to grow next year that might sell better. And then learn what crowd-funding is, and get on social media and get people interested in your avacodos instead of potatoes, and maybe think about growing wine grapes, or use all that new source of financing to build the best f*cking water-slide in the state, for the kids.

Might be more productive than all that incessant whining about the banker.

One of the best live shows I've ever seen. Totally blew the roof off!
These guys are gritty Southern fried Rock !  They do a killer version of Warren zevons, all night long
Not bad if you like every every every lyric lyric lyric repeated three times...
purdy good song hes's sing'n  I does like this 
bad ass ......  apparently not for every taste.... Never Gonna Change is another good one from DBT.... haven't seen them live, but if I get the chance I will be there, friends tell me they put on a great show
Not exactly my genre but hey, this is why RP is the best! We get to hear things we'd normally not. Or purposely avoid. And quite frankly, I've "discovered" a lot of music here that has caused me to be a fan, download the tune or buy the vinyl.
Great lyrics, great music, and they perfectly complement each other.  Don't really know these guys, but well done.
Straight ahead R & R! Like it...

Well they're from Alabama for one thing.  For the second, your analysis is way off base.  IMHO.  Not sure if you've actually listened to 'em.
Never heard this one before These guys rock

 Patterson Hood the front man for DBT,  is the son of  David Hood a Muscle Shoals session player who played bass on the Staple Singers' "I'll Take You There" which RP played a scnat 3 hours ago/  we also had the pleasure of hearing Jason Isbell here after being treated to his White Man's World tune a couple of hours ago.   Love it!

Tried to watch their show at Targhee Fest yesterday, but after a ripping set by JJ Gray they just seemed like a wall of noise.  Could also be that I was a little fried from bike riding and being in the sun all day...

Did see them many years ago when they first hit the scene and that was a good show.

Love this song... "Decoration Day" (the song) is my all time favorite DBT song... epic.
it is well past the time " we the people " buried a bunch of the crooks on wall st. as well as the slime who own them.

Great band - great song!


We need more DBT!

Maybe I'll upload a Cooley song off the new album...
wow - serious hard ass lyrics
the lyrics are really good---i had heard little pieces of the lyrics over the years but had never taken time to read them.
i upped it to nine for that original guitar riff----love 'em.
The best country rock going. Killer band live.
Going to see them in a month or so in Raleigh with Blitzen Trapper. Can't wait!

Yeah baby...

 

This what we need for Monday morning. Just freakin, guitar RnR...with some country twang.

 

Just don't forget to do this on this Friday afternoon.  


7 for the lyrics.

Mellencamp's "Rain On The Scarecrow" updated and little more wild-eyed. Predatory lending's been going on a long time. 

I came across a book well worth reading--"Little Heathens" by Mildred Kalish" --about growing up in small-town Iowa during the Great Depression. As a child, she experienced a wrenching and frightening moment during a gathering of her extended family at her grandfather's home. The adults--tough, resilient farmers--were openly weeping because one branch of the family had lost its farm when it couldn't pay the local taxes. Title reverted to the town, which couldn't afford to run it or sell it for a decent price. That spiral of debt, dispossession and poverty was playing out all across the state. 

"I'd rather lose my legs and arms" rings true.
good cure for crooked bankers and the senators they own.....{#Biggrin}
His first mistake was to mortgage the 5 generation home place. I know, I did it too. You don't expect paying it back to be a problem, but then the earth falls away from your feet. I feel his pain and anger at the bank. They are the one who knocks.
Celebrate, this party's over, I'm going home...
