"Odessa"
I’ve got Odessa on my mind, I stay worried all the time
Wish I didn’t hurt so much but I don’t have that kind of luck
It’s a low down dirty shame now I can’t even hear her name
So I’m selling off my pride with Odessa on my mind
I’ve got Odessa in my head, I think I like to wake up dead
Then I finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
Yes I know I’m talking bad but I’ve done lost the best I had
Ain’t no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind
I’ve got Odessa on my mind, I think I rather would be blind
Than to see her walk away, how much pain can one fool take?
See them lights out in the field, a testament to things men yield
But I ain’t got nothing but time and Odessa on my mind
I’ve got Odessa in my head, sometimes I like to wake up dead
Then I finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
Yes I know I’m talking bad but I’ve done lost the best I had
Ain’t no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind

My grandmother's name was Odessa. She died on my lap in church 39 years ago. This song means a whole lot to me.. I was 5 when I hold her as she died. I miss her..

[@childoftheeternalsky2382]

She's in God's arms waiting for you brother. Make her proud everyday till you meet her up there.

[@nataliekelly2131]

Sorry for your loss

[@l.b.5814]

Charley travels and when you listen to him your heart travels with him....to Odessa, the valley, the Trinity river and five more miles to the next destination. So thankful for the journey and this man keeping the old school soul of American music alive

[@chopsticksandtrains]

Well said!

[@txdunn]

I love his songs, but I think Odessa is about a lady

[@Atxkids]

I always think the same thing about Charley, he literally transforms you visually in your head to another place. No other artist does this like him.

[@dustinjohnson3463]

They made opening acts for people like charlie because no one can follow guys like him

[@NunyaBZwaks]

Couldn't agree more, that was absolute poetry

[@logankinsella3407]

This man is bringing back real country music

[@MrDippy-nm7xp]

Him and a lot of others

[@brianvetrano6817]

Him. Childers. Colter Wall. Etc

[@gfy86]

Sturgill Simpson has entered the chat

[@thegreatcomm]

This song is just downright wonderful. I grew up on country music and had little hope with this new generation of music. Charley rekindled my hope in the genre. Thanks Charley!

[@catmansma]

Already love it and haven't heard the entire song. No one sings like Charley

[@dailyactivities2610]

It’s off his latest album from a few months ago

[@jimtomstimpson1477]

Same!

[@williamwestbrook5843]

Beautiful

[@tedward7086]

He & Childers have been the only singers to make me cry. I wouldn't even tell my own father that. Thanks, KZbin.

[@noahsanchez9639]

This man has got the gift ❤

[@GeigerFarm]

He earned it 👌

[@jr.daniels7750]

I’ve seen him perform 3 times in concert here in the Midwest, all were killer shows! Out of the 54,000 some minutes listened in my Spotify wrapped this year, Charley earned 4,500 of them. Every album he puts out just blows my expectations out of the water. It’s been a great experience these last 7 years listening to his music! There’s a reason spotify said I’m in the top .01% of his listeners. Simply can’t say thanks enough for all the amazing music over the years Charley!

[@voyxu143]

Superfan

[@MattyLang24]

He's been the best thing going for a few years now. I'm up in Canada and will be making a trip soon to see him somewhere. I'm convinced he owns a time machine hehe

[@JoLoneyMusic]

I know this song is about Odessa Texas, but I can’t help but think of the small town of Odessa Ontario that I grew up in. I spent endless days in the creek across the road, or in the farmers fields out back just exploring and interacting with critters and nature. The 3 or 4 years I spent there will forever be the highlight of my childhood. Thank you for giving me a soundtrack to go along with the memories!

[@kevinshea7331]

This guys gonna be huge someday, we’re seeing the beginnings of a true artist

[@ericwaln2056]

This man been at it over a decade my friend

[@bjanowsky20]

This is almost a year later but Charley is already up top

[@dipthongthathongthongthong9691]

There's so much SOUL in Charley's music! I'm another one of those "damn I didn't realize I like country western" people who dig pretty much everything this guy does. Love the new album. Big salute to you Charley 🙌

[@David-po9we]

You're really helping me through some hard times, brother.

[@maltewunsche7123]

Feels good not to be the only one

[@pauladams1006]

It only gets worse....🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@helterskelter87]

You're certainly welcome!...

[@MnzGmz]

Amen to that! Im going thru it!

[@johnbooth5297]

Man makes me feel like I'm sitting in an old honky tonk beer in hand great music to listen to when coming home from down range

[@quintili1]

What a fantastic album. Charley is so damn good.

[@cheechrhino215]

Love to listen to Charley sing. He's one the best country singers in a looong time

[@anettee.1805]

I heard it play at a garage sale … I was transfixed immediately and felt like I was at a lounge instead. In love with Crockett’s music immediately. So talented

[@South3West77]

My hometown Odessa Texas

[@personreanimation]

I'm sorry.

[@South3West77]

@@personreanimation yeah sounds like a personal problem boy

[@personreanimation]

@@South3West77 I am from West Texas. The place sucks balls.

[@South3West77]

@@personreanimation ever place has its problems, ours is just compounding daily. It's not what it once was, that is a unfortunate fact. But I still love the place, and the whole of our Southwest. After WW3 It'll return to Jess ranching and oil field. The way it should be.

[@Gregorybridgewater]

Whew! That place gets hot in the summer!

[@Auntkekebaby]

Ain't no way to walk no line with O DESSA on my miiind. I love singing this one. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@brewtality213]

I swear this man is out here saving country music

[@chopsticksandtrains]

Greetings from an American fan living out here in East Asia! Next time I'm back in the States I NEED to see Charley in concert! Always releasing the goods!

[@BrokeHatchetRanch]

Whole album was fantastic but this song is my absolute fave.

[@elainekacsor44]

Saw him 11 times. Truly love Charley, his music, and of course the Blue Drifters! Michigan love Charley Crockett!🐎🌴

[@derekwaterfield]

To me “Odessa” is a hardship we all face in life and odessa can take many forms. A person, a place, a state of mind.. but its walk of life and a place we all go to in our heads at some point in our lives.. and odessa is a beautiful name for that special place

[@curtisdooley441]

The whole album on blast! Crockett is underrated to say the least!

[@wormsinmybuttcheeks2840]

I think this song deserves a better video! Another Great Album by Charley and the Gang

[@wormsinmybuttcheeks2840]

I like the look/Style they were going for, just didn't quite nail the representation. The song slaps tho!

[@Colinshreds69]

Realest musician out rn

[@georgejaltgelt]

Then one and only Charlie C delivers everytime - the Pride of South Texas - God Bless you brother - so prolific and gifted!

[@devonfinney1011]

The good ole Freddie fender water tower

[@SUBKOLOR]

Odessa on my mind

[@chasegallagher1326]

Charley is the real deal, and Nathan Fleming is killing it on PSG. 🔥💪🏼

[@valerioliva9872]

Seen him 4 times, each time more fantastic than the last! Also was my top artist on my Spotify wrapped! He’s wonderful!

[@r.f.9188]

Sound recording quality is awesome

[@kurtzwar729]

Love your songs Charley. And your voice is top drawer. Love your sliding, bending and volume swelling notes. Great band. Songs for all of us. Thanks Charley.

[@lukebrewer9634]

Odessa Live in Denver was Incredible. Charley is one of the best out there today

[@Bergnutz]

Love this song! This whole album is playing couple times a week

[@jacoba3491]

PSA: if you haven’t seen charley in concert you need to. ASAP

[@txdunn]

Grammy... give it to him

[@cormacmccarthy1559]

This song is so good! This guy is good man. Glad he's out there. I try to let people know his music.

[@og_gilly3764]

Being from Odessa, Tx this is really cool to see. Love Charley’s music

[@og3dkooz381]

Another great one off another great album. Awesome job, y'all.

[@nathanieladams4474]

This man IS the future of country music…. Ironic he sounds like the past ;) masterpiece as usual

[@julieanne25]

This is the ONLY kind of country music I like :) feels kinda bluesy folksy twangy delicious

[@rottenrobbie66]

Mr, you keep getting better with every new song you sing. Keep being you brother, you are what the music industry needs more of.

[@Death2Weebs]

This one goes on repeat for eternity

[@Death2Weebs]

Every car

[@claytonhobbs1360]

Keep the great country tracks coming man! Sounds so different from the rest of the pack out there.

[@charlesminter6015]

You said it- Def a new plateau- Thank you Charley🍻

[@mr.editson]

I just seen him live at the Vogue last weekend. He puts on an incredible show live. We love you Charley!

[@dirkydirk3070]

That was a fantastic show.

[@Hank.Flamingo]

Seconded! Saw him last week in Minneapolis and he was fantastic.

[@thenewtowncryer]

I have tix to the LA show on the 11th!!!

[@ryanmckinley4836]

Wow, just wow. I have not been moved by music like this in a while.

[@TylerSnyder305]

Great song, it's one of my favorites on the album. Sometimes I'll skip other songs on the CD just to hear it first, then go back to the 1st track and eventually hear this one again.

[@jamesmcswain8120]

One more comment, you sir are country music. And you always have a killer band backing you.

[@Death2Weebs]

Send this one to the Moon. Invest in this

[@luvmymusic]

I really dig this song. Your voice is perfect for it, Charlie. I like the vibe and pace.

[@johnwojewoda9292]

Country treasure, poet of the hills

[@justingarretson2054]

If it’s a Charley Crockett song it will be great. Class act !

[@mathewparrish9377]

One of my new favorites of all time🏜️

[@christophersanchez8348]

sounds so good!! Love listening to Charley Crockett driving home into the sunset after work!! 😎🎶🎵

[@irwin0615]

See that passion, son! Straight 🔥 still.

[@lonz46]

Got to see Charlie at the Railbird Festival in Lexington last June. Been listening ever since. Headliner Tyler Childers even covered Tom Turkey that night & said it was a Charlie tune 🎶

[@AlphaMcnutty]

Absolutely love what you do. Truly saving country. Keep on doing what you're doing.

[@brandont657]

Charley is the goat 🐐

[@antoniobravo1526]

Charly is godsend for sure !

[@TT-cv9kq]

Went to Charley's concert Saturday, best thing I've ever done

[@tomk2720]

Has anybody ever heard Charley talk about his time in Morocco? I'm a similar vintage, loved Morroco myself and would love to hear his take and his experience there

[@Rebecca.howard]

First heard Charley Crockett on SiriusXM Outlaw station playing Just Like Honey and I was hooked! Odessa is my favorite of his so far but so, so many are a close second! I don’t often like so many songs from one artist and I haven’t found one yet that I don’t like by Charley!

[@thegardenersunion]

Love the VHS. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦

[@Death2Weebs]

I will jam this 1999 times today

[@zacharytaylor3054]

Hey, Charley has been my favorite musician for a good minute now, and I'm genuinely surprised more folks don't know him. I traveled hard for a couple years myself when I was 18 with the alice pack, banjo, dog, zero money always, sadness forever, combat boots, etc.. and all of his songs just really speak to the pure experience of it. (Well, and Choking Victim, but shhhh...)

[@jamesmcswain8120]

I guess I love the girl and the place now. Thanks Charlie.

[@AloneinRemoteAlaska]

I could listen to you sing every day all day....Oh wait, I do! Love this song, and the album.

[@andrewman1100]

The best there's ever been

[@kathypeoples5010]

Feeling grateful to listen to Charley Crockett!

[@colelankey7771]

One of your best you have ever put out keep it up

[@stefanilles2851]

Love Charley! Heard him for the first time a year ago, now I got all his records. I hope to see him in concert in my hometown ( Stockholm) someday.

[@Auntkekebaby]

Imma need you to actually rest when you take your one month off...but I KNOW that you got a Lil GL blues album coming in 5 minutes🤣cause you know that we need that cowboy candy intravenously. You can't sit yo ass down for nothing and I LOVE IT!!

[@bradruest7544]

I saw him in DC in November. It was a truly life changing show. I love Charley and all his music.

[@lukeycharms]

my favorite song on this album! another banger of a video to boot

[@matthewmoore856]

Man! Charlie Slays everything he sings! Walking Talk'n Legend in our Midst!

[@cyoungso]

Tucker Valve Seat, Odessa, TX. They make the best!

[@ashleywilliams8198]

I love this song why has he not blown up like crazy. I want this on the radio

[@RaulGarcialMalaHierba]

Grande Charley!!!!!!

[@personreanimation]

Grew up in Seminole TX not to far from Odessa. It isn't a place I keep on my mind to often.

[@timhildreth5498]

Amazing that this was recorded this way.

[@derekeboyd]

Keep em coming, Charley!

[@Vgrizzw]

This video takes me back to those late night hbo recording sessions on vcr…

[@neintoten6155]

Outstanding! At last, a genuine original!!

[@mr.editson]

Amazing

[@MattBox-kf3fp]

Born and raised in Odessa Texas. Yes I miss it at times.

[@bryanwelton1442]

What a good tune

[@24dll]

Gave me the chills

[@forgottenhelm1299]

Gonna see Charley next week here in Houston. Saw him in San Marcos earlier this year and get to see him again!

[@haydenmelchiorsgarage8641]

Saw Charley at the Newport in Columbus. If you have the chance to see this man live I’d highly recommend you do so! Great performance

[@mikesadler2264]

Just an excellent tune on an album full of them!

[@neilr8738]

My favorite song from Charley Crockett :)

[@Rawdiswar]

I don't plan on ending it all but if I did it would probably be to this song while sitting in my kitchen alone.

[@coloradoconcentrates2434]

Love this tune. Great show on 12/02/22 !!!!!

[@WYO_Dirtbag]

I was there!

[@lornebain3659]
