Blackberry Smoke - Ought To Know Lyrics






You throw caution to the wind
You toss everyone aside
Put it on your lucky number
And you let it all ride
I can't tell you nothing
That you don't already know
You're bangin' on the dashboard
Is this as fast as it'll go

You ought to know by now
You ought to know by now
It's gonna drag you down
You ought to know by now

We've heard all the stories
First you trip and then you fall
You don't heed no warning
You've probably seen it all
We watched you from the cheap seats
With the whole world in your hand
Your time is running out now
Like so many grains of sand

You ought to know by now
You ought to know by now
It's gonna drag you down
You ought to know by now

I've seen you light up the sky
When you had the fire in your eyes
I guess it's just a matter of time
Till you reach the end
The end of your line

You ought to know by now
You ought to know by now
It's gonna drag you down
You ought to know by now

  1. I.... O....

    Great Band, music from the heart. Pure. 🤟

  2. L.... C....

    This band is freeking amazing. I "discovered" them 5 months ago, and at this point have all albums except this one... seen them 4x's, and have met the COOLEST people at all 4 concerts. At my 4th in Redding, CA I met the band and was blown away at how NICE they are....so.... HAVE I BEEN LIVING UNDER A ROCK FOR THE PAST 19 YEARS???? Guess so, but glad I managed to crawl out!!!

  3. V.... ....

    Damn this sounds like a cross between Bad Company and the Beatles with a little ELO thrown in. Amazing!!!

  4. D.... R....

    Reminds me of the Foo big time.

  5. G.... M....

    coming to the UK in April...yahoo!!...tickets bought!

  6. t.... w....

    dang...British blues crossed with power pop. what a tight little song.

    t.... w....

    bob way this is southern rock..

  7. h.... ....

    You guys are my heros as far as music goes today.. Rock on, see ya down the road..

  8. P.... W....

    All I can say is thank you,

  9. R.... P....

    I appreciate this being posted but its no wonder a band cant sell records anymore. Release a new album on a Thursday, its posted to the internet by Friday.

    R.... P....

    This was posted by the record company, they know it's a losing battle so why not at least let a world wide audience listen to a great band?  You are right about album sales though, Like An Arrow went top of the US Country Album charts after selling a massive 22,500 copies in two weeks....some of these songs have 400,000 views on You Tube

  10. T.... C....

    Another Great Blackberry Smoke Song

    Support all hard working touring band that have been shut out for being guilty of having talent and the courage to express their music with substance and conviction bands like BBSand whiskey Meyers to name a few , lots great new music out there got go find it on u tube search and seek! Let start a movement together, STOP BIG Radio in its TRACKS 🎼🎤👍
