| I'm not really a country fan at all but this song brings me to tears. This was my friend Robs favorite song. He would always play it. It was then and is still the story of his life. He had an alcohol problem all of his life and he was constantly trying to find himself. The last few months were just kinda really bad for him he had gotten another dui and his wife was divorcing him. He died two weeks ago. He had been way to drunk at a toby keith concert and while walking along the road, back to his car in the dark, he fell off of a bridge 12 feet into a shallow river. The fall knocked him out and he died from a combination of hypothermia and drowning. No one found him for 10 days. I went to the funeral and when I got home this song came on the radio. I got the chills and started crying. The irony is so weird because with the way he was living he was bound to get what was coming to him. and the last line "take it to the river" makes me speechless. | |

| BleedAmerican, This was Kid Rock's 4th single off of that album, so I'm sure people knew what they were buying. It wasn't a trick. | |

| I remember this as probably the first song in English (I didn't know the language well yet) that made me cry because of its depth and words. I was so naive then and life was just starting for me (I was about to start college. I graduate in December '05 and I'm a lawyer now) and those changes made me feel so insecure...And now so many years after I find that even though things changed a lot I'm the same person inside and I'm so terrified of what's about to come...And sad as well because of what's been lost along the way. And I'm just so lonely in this matter as I was back then... "You get what you put in and people get what they deserve Still I ain't seen mine, no I ain't seen mine..." :'( Wow this song meant so much and listening to it now it seems like those years in between hadn't actually gone by... | |

| "A stellar production" - David Lee Roth. If you've never seen Kid Rock in concert you have to, its your homework assignment. Even if you dont like him, go, its an event. He plays every instrament. Amazing. And when he plays this song ever lighter in the place is burning. | |
