Steve Earle Lyrics

    ------ About the song Rich Man's War performed by Steve Earle

What a sack of shit. He was free to sing this song because theses soldiers stand up and fight for that freedom everyday. He has the right to disagree with the war, but to belittle what our soldiers do is a disgrace.

I am Bangladeshi and I don't think this song doesn't have a certain country to indicate."Galway Girl" is just a speech of word with the help of that Steve Earle express his feelings to someone he loved same we can do it for our loved ones.

I heard this song by Mundy and Sharon Shannon, and I was hooked!!I love it and it is a real sweet tune.
I liked the eyes were blue, part.
I seen the video of Mundy, and he does it best for me.
Cheers and here's to you:
Long live the Irish, and anyone else, even if you're just a wee bit irish!!

I love this song with a passion, my grandmother is from Galway bay and my grandfather was Welsh, they met and married against her familys wishes, and he used to sing this to her even though her eyes were green!

    ------ About the song The Galway Girl performed by Steve Earle

I'm sorry, but there is literally nothing more annoying to Irish people (like myself, and everyone I know) than Americans who claim to be Irish by some stupid distant descent. Guess what, looking back a few generations, pretty much all your ancestors came from Europe as America is a relatively new country. Still, you are American.

    ------ About the song John Walker's Blues performed by Steve Earle

I just saw a TV moment of John Walker Lindh's parents speaking about him and his life … he's been away for 10 Years and he's due to serve another 10 Years … I don't think he'll be given any clemency.

I love the sound of the song and Steve's slurring of words and the feeling he puts into the lyrics. The lyrics are really cool … great … solid … and telling HIS STORY …

    ------ About the song Goodnight Irene performed by Steve Earle

I bought a Huddy Leadbetter LP in the 50's; the first or one of them, and played it and played it. I loved his songs but couldn't understand some of his words; I think he sang "I guess you're in ma dreams". I'll never forget him.

    ------ About the song Goodnight Irene performed by Steve Earle

I was a small child when my father first sang this to me. I learned all the words, but today, as the east coast of the US is being haunted by Hurricane Irene, I could only remember a verse or two. So, of course, I had to look it up and see all the verses. It's a haunting song, like the haunting hurricane is it's namesake. May we all not feel how the songwriter did about Irene. God Bless us all. May Irene die out in the ocean and not in our hearts!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking as an American Irish gal,(both sides) I can tell you fella, the only way your gonna get this girl is to outsmart her. Change your life, maybe your look. Do the unexpected, interesting, not destructive things. She has known you since you were young. Most us Irish gals are pretty high spirited whether we show it or not. (Just make one of us mad) And we tend to look for the different when raised in the same environment,with same type of people all our lives, especially here in the USA.Where there is so much diversity. It's only when we get older we realize Irish men are the only ones that can put up w/us. LOL! Best of luck to ya lad. ;)
