lyrics

there was a knotted root below the hanging tree
I went to gather fruit before my ship came
the grass was stained & wet
I touched my tongue to it
I heard the whip crack and I couldn't help but sing

here come the good ship Jesus
rising on the endless sea
there's devils in the hearts of free men
but a savior gonna come for me

I slept a hundred years and woke in Cicero
the barrel cool against the back of my neck
a hot Chicago sun
fell down on everyone
we stared each other down until the protests

here come the good ship Jesus
rising on the endless sea
there's devils in the hearts of free men
but a savior gonna come for me

then I was Alfred Wright and I was Tamir Rice
and I was Sandra Bland and on and on it goes
there is a knotted root
below the hanging tree
it reached deep into the soil down below

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

Wary + Strange
by Amythyst Kiah

supported by 7 fans who also own “Good Ship Jesus”

I've been listening to this album, and others, for a while but the live performances of 'Firecracker' and 'Wild Turkey' , as well ad 'Darlin' Cory', at the Transatlantic Sessions show at the RFH was another level. Live music is the best. The whole concert was insanely good. Shame not to hear 'Black Myself' in that setting but it was all near perfection as it was. oldjembo
