Band Of Heathens, The - Had It All Lyrics
Take for granted nothing taken back
Having everything is all you lack
A thousand mornings end in one goodnight
You said you would be here but you have taken flight
You don't feel the mountain when it moves
A thousand stones blend into the sand
Rings on your fingers when all you need's a hand
You had it all and threw it away
Staring at the ceiling from a bed
You had it all and threw it away
Home is more than a place to lay your head
Losing everything you hold so dear
To a thousand storms with someone by your side
Now when the sun shines, rains coming down inside
You had it all and threw it away
Staring at the ceiling from a bed
You had it all and threw it away
Home is more than a place to lay your head
Open up a treasure chest
Rip a heart out, make a mess
Open up a treasure chest
Rip a heart out, make a mess

Band Of Heathens, The Had It All Comments
What an awesome cover of the late great Levon Helm!!
So good it gives me the stinky face 😘
This is music.
You guys are pulling awesome strings. Your vibes reaches deep into everyone's feelings. Thanks and keep it up...as I carve my walking sticks.
Great sound, British fan that love American Outlaw
This is Louisiana!
I don't get the American Idol reference?? I was in a bar and someone sang this killed it. Good music💪
I’m here because a friend told me this song reminded her of me (I’m from Louisiana now living in St. Louis) and I’m in love!!! I’m discovering TBOH and I’m obsessed!!!!!!
A friend printed me out two sheets of music paper while out jamming... One was Simple Man by Lynard Skynard and Hurricane by Band of Heathens witch I never heard of Band of Heathens before He said you can sing both of them so I took the sheet music home just a couple weeks ago and like you said your abcessed with this Band I have listened to there You Tube Videos so much because I feel the pressure is on me now because New Years Eve bringing my guitar over and going to play Both song's "Wish me Luck" 😕😂
Fuxin love dem baws.
Hope dem baws come up dis way.
👍
Whoever shot that video is GOOD!
My dad suggested this song and I love it😃😃😁

If you ain't sipping rum or moonshine as this plays you doing it wrong
I saw these guys on a Monday night in a local venue. One of the loudest, best shows I've ever been to. So clean! Thank you fellas!
Good performance, but it has way less energy than the album version
Greatness...it gave me goosebumps.
hello! laine could choose a playlist of favourite songs !!!!
♥️ NOLA xoxo
Now theres a crazy concept 5 talented guys that can actually sing and play instruments (NO MACHINES OR COMPUTERS).It's sad this is almost extinct in music today.
Great performance!!!!!
Fuck american idol
The arrangement on this is pretty terrible. Doesn't capture the spirit of this song at all. Totally contrived cover.
Dont think they would survive a hurricane without rescue squad
just moved to Louisiana and this is one of the first songs I hear... Damn it's good
Nice job on an old Leon Everette song! Beautiful harmonies!
awesome tune! Living in New Orleans, LA this song gets you right in the heart! Geaux Saints!!!
"Where's Laine"? Gimme Laine!!
I love this song but your timing is wayyyyyy off
Brings a lot of memory of when me and a good friend would ride down there each year to visit his, and now my kin.
Please let laine cover this on his first full album.
Laine Hardy brought me here!!!!
Great song, guys.
Well I'll say it again, I'm here listening to this awesome song because of Laine Hardy! I hope he wins AI and will continue to listen to this band and type of music!!
Im sorry but once Laine Hardy has sang your song....it’s just better
My favorite band. Love y'all got some air time finally. Here's to paying those bills!!
Much confusion here about this song. It is NOT Band of Heathens song. This is a cover version. Levon Helm recorded the song in 1980 and Leon Everette had a huge country hit with it in 1981. It is a great song written long ago by Thom Schuyler, Keith Stegall, and Stewart Harris.

Just discovered this band, thanks to Laine Hardy, they have some great tunes, downloaded a few. However, I much prefer Laine's version of Hurricane! Can't beat Laine's voice. :)
Being from NOLA brought me here 😁
love this swampy redneck sound. ♡♡♡
Love Laine HARDY's version much better !!
You're not a musician obviously but that's OK.
I watched American Idol and within 10seconds of Laine playing this song its become a favorite of mine...What a song!
From all commercial divers....bring the rain bitches
Wow what a great song, Three Cheers for Laine on Idol Rocking this one out to the Public
Andrew Garfield lookalike
They've been popular here in Texas for quite a while. We love them! If you like the Austin Music Scene you should also check out Gary Clark Jr.
Killer song
You Guys own Laine Hardy bringing us here. Hope Laine wins AI!
...he owes them for creating something for him to imitate...
They made the sing he owes them with out them he wouldnt bw at american idol
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the south wind moan
The bridges getting lower
The shrimp boats coming home
The old man down in the Quarter
Slowly turns his head
Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle
And this is what he said
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Man came down from Chicago
He gonna set that levee right
He says, "it needs to be at least three feet higher
It won't make it through the night"
But the old man down in the Quarter
He said "don't you listen to that boy
The water be down by the morning
And he'll be back to Illinois"
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the South wind moan
Bridges getting lower
The shrimp boats coming home
The old man down in the Quarter
Slowly turns his head
Takes a drink from his whiskey bottle
And this is what he said
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
High black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
This band should give that American idol douche royalties judging from the comments! Lol
I did not know about this group till American Idol. thank you for bringing them to me. I love them.
I am obsessed with this songs...
Got to see them live before they blew up, playing for PBS/NWR news. Hella good playing in the park
These guys rival The Eagles with their harmonies.
Laine Hardy from American Idol brought me here. Credit to him and his awesome performance of this song.
Up here in Ontario Canada, love from the Great White North, we will take the hurricanes if the come with this incredible inspiration and talent! 🇨🇦
Yeeeeeaaaaah

This is the kind of song that makes you want to pick up a guitar. So do it!
Great song....love it!
One of the best songs I've ever heard. No offense
Extremely good Music needs no comment. This comment left intentionally blank
Song gives me chills
Please excuse me but I stumbled across this and it completely gripped me. What style of music is it? I'm from the UK and we don't have this style. I think I'm hooked !! Any bands I should look for? Any suggestions would be appreciated
Goddamn it's the soggy bottom boys , 🔥 🔥 🔥, good shit
Pfft American Idle whatever. I'm here because good music brought me here. Whiskey Myers, Cody Jinks, Ryan BIngman.
That might well be the case but it's not always easy to find it these days.
Mike McClure, Ragweed.....
Pfft. I’m guessing you haven’t seen Laine Hardy
David Hall...yes!!!
amazed66 amen to that
Great song. BRAVO!!
The first 2 minutes is the best
How bout a HELL YEAH where have you boys been all my life
Les vi en Huercasa 2018 y soy seguidora incondicional
like the best wine on earth ! This makes me so laid back
I could rip this song
I absolutely fell in love with Band of Heathens. My 6 year old grandson turned me on to this song singing it with a microphone. I had never heard of them and went home and pulled up their music. Been listening to them every since!
This is what I would call modern outlaw country. Im more of a rock guy. I love shinedown, rise against, avenged sevenfold and stuff like that but I can’t get enough of this type of music.
'Glad to see some troops playin' a song about the "DEEP SOUTH" ... yer' toes are we when ya' listen!!! I know.. I was born there!! skybill
yer' toes are "WET!!" sorry the 'puter didn't register!!
i know this is a really shameless plug but if you have some free time you should take a look the cover of this on my channel, again i apologize im just trying to get heard. thank you
Shells, your cover is not bad but you do have a lot of work to do, not a knock, just keep practicing. This song is not meant to be song solo, it's the harmony's that make it unique.
This is sexy as hell!
Gang gang.
Tremendous
I love this song can't get enough
Theo Von sent me here
JMC RSA He didn't really bring me here, but it's nice to see someone from the Past Weekend here.
Onward.
Love the Podcast, Love Theo, great genuine guy, enjoy!
JMC RSA gang gang
Wow. Y'all got some soul. Feelin it.
Theo Von sent me here!
emeraldisle70 grew up an hour and a half east of Theo. Went through Elena, George, Katrina, and plenty of others
👌🏻
Check out the Jessie Larae band cover of this song.
Great music !!!
Jesus Loves You
Great tune!
I came here from American idol laine hardy. I love the rasp in his voice when he does this song but this is just lovely. It gives me goosebumps
Word 👊🏻 love this jam
