A new song from Old Crow Medicine Show’s upcoming album released in Sept 08. The song is about crystal meth.. kind of strange that everyone hoots and hollars after the chorus.. this is a pretty somber song.

This is from their performance in St Augustine Florida on July 5, 08.

jonnyskidds on 11 May, 2008 at 2:48 pm #

I love this band.

For the people who haven’t seen these guys live…trust me, this does no justice to how it sounds live.

what most people don’t realize is that whats left of the Native Americans are the real ones being “rocked” by meth…

I couldn’t believe it when I heard this song the first time, how true and sad - because it is so true. Saying I’m an idiot when you don’t know me shows off your class..


ClassicPaul545 on 18 May, 2008 at 7:32 am #

no its not. its an anti drugs song. you’re an idiot


Rickduden on 20 May, 2008 at 2:22 pm #

do you think musicians ever check out their own videos on youtube and suddenly get all self conscious like “damn what the hell am i doing up there?

ritalin and generics are amphetamines not meth. meth has battery acid and jet fuel cooked in. The song is about methamphetamine which is basically running uncontrolled from southeast Virginia to Tenesse to West VA.


SpreadheadSpearhead on 23 May, 2008 at 5:18 am #

Everyone in my town cheered when they said Methamphetamine too but that’s because my town is full of blue collar meth heads. Sad but thue.

No they’re yelling after methamphetamine bc they’re fcktards. This song is sad. It speaks of how speed ruins nigga’s lives. These bros on the other hand are unaware of the somber subject matter and are cheering on the use of speed for its party purposes.


ipoopondeadguysfaces on 28 May, 2008 at 4:17 am #

I just got back from one of their shows, and I yelled when I heard “methamphetamine” because it’s when you realize the power of the song. Fucking awesome.

never mind. Em G C.

Tell it, tell it!


parellicrazy on 3 June, 2008 at 5:18 pm #

parellicrazy on 6 June, 2008 at 2:45 pm #

wow! willie’s hair is really long! Another awesome song by the best band on the planet! what are the chords?


utvolsfan13 on 6 June, 2008 at 11:30 pm #

yeah i agree… this song is VERY somber… sad how true it is


moltenone on 9 June, 2008 at 7:07 am #

this is another great album by the ocms


wadams2010 on 9 June, 2008 at 7:35 pm #

It is less strange when you think about how most of the people who listen to OCMS are college kids and a little older and we all got our doctor prescribed meth (AKA Adderall, Ritalin, and all the generics).


bobby0731 on 12 June, 2008 at 7:29 am #

i just found out about the guys i am happy i did the best thing ive came across in a long time i will be at their next show near indy


jboogie183 on 14 June, 2008 at 8:25 am #

I picked it up last night at their show in D.C. and it’s is amazing!


dancezilla on 16 June, 2008 at 3:03 am #

I think some people screamed because it IS such a life ruiner and yet they’re not afraid to sing about it AS a life ruiner, and say it right out. The rest of everyone was just hammered I’m sure.


Pure6American6Metal6 on 16 June, 2008 at 3:38 pm #

brutal…this is the most metal song i’ve heard in a long time


whitetrashboys on 18 June, 2008 at 11:31 pm #

Truth on the intensity of the show.

But I was kind of shocked the first time they screamed “Methamphetamine!”. Meth is a life ruiner for certain.


BenCovo on 20 June, 2008 at 9:44 am #

Great song, can’t wait for the new album. The people screaming during this song obviously don’t understand what this is about, or arent paying attention because they’re hammered, anyway great song and performance.
