Greensky Bluegrass - Windshield Lyrics






I don't know how I'm feelin' and no-one can verify
If everything is working properly, cuz it's all inside
And there's something on the windshield but I can't fucking see
Besides, no-one volunteered to drive for me

Are you looking out for me
Or am I left to be without you
It could be years of the saddest rhymes
Like hard times when a loved one dies
Or heartache in empty home
Forced to take the sleepless nights
Alone, alone, alone

Someone better hide the children, I think things are getting out of hand
And there's nothing for a woman left to take from a man
And all the stories of our parents are falling apart
Took a lifetime to protect us keep from breaking our hearts

There's a secret in the basement, I can feel it through the floor
I don't think this heart can take the weight of deception anymore
Cry out in helpless agony for the broken memories In things
I thought that I would never be

Greensky Bluegrass Windshield Comments
  1. k.... f....

    Some of the best lyrics I’ve ever heard. Absolutely love their shows too. So much fun.

  2. J.... B....

    Bruzza Rocking the Equinox Brewery Shirt!! SUpport the Fort

  3. C.... F....

    Breath of fresh air

  4. J.... B....

    Ok. This is so wrong. Because a bunch of people pick up bluegrass instruments and play their style of shitty music doesn't make it bluegrass.

  5. G.... H....

    Can we talk about how some dude ruins every mood by yelling "Yeah" at the end of all the videos?

  6. C.... R....

    These boys represent michigan to the fullest , michigan bluegrass at its finest here

  7. R.... ....

    Not a lot tops the peak of this song with a few thousand festival family singing along.

  8. p.... ....

    thats why I love youtube, no chance to discover something like that on spotify

  9. B.... j....

    Nacho dog !!!!!

  10. E.... ....

    So good.

  11. N.... R....

    It’s Yee Haw Shaggy 🙂

  12. S.... F....

    Currently have this song on repeat while I lay in bed next to someone who used to love me. These lyrics have never made more sense than they do at this point in my life.

  13. G.... D....

    "all the lies told to protect us to keep from breaking our hearts" yeah like when they tell you they love you

  14. J.... W....

    This song Is way too real.

  15. p.... ....

    If Bill Monroe was still alive what would he think of the F WORD being used in bluegrass music. Disgraceful!

    p.... ....

    Good thing there are no rules to music and you can say whatever the fuck you please (;

    p.... ....

    I agree. Hard to believe how our society has gotten. So many think its great.

  16. P.... t....

    This song is sexist... just kidding. Fuck you leftists.

  17. L.... B....

    can someone tell me what's going on with that delicious riff at 2:00? looks like slide guitar with metal finger picks and...a capo? idk help??
    I need it

    L.... B....

    @Josh Naylon Music ty!!!!

  18. J.... B....

    My science teacher (Mr. Bont)'s brother is the bald dude playing the banjo

    PS, you can TOTALLY tell that they're brothers

  19. B.... B....

    Amazing!!

  20. m.... l....

    Definitely the best song ever. Love you guys♥️

  21. A.... ....

    I don’t know why but I don’t like swearing with this kind of music. It feels inauthentic and unnecessary. The lyrics don’t seem particularly insightful or creative either.

  22. M.... T....

    In love ❤️

  23. A.... V....

    Heta bylo smačna.

  24. D.... S....

    Thank God for musicians! I enjoy people who take pride in their craft! You guys are great!

  25. O.... T....

    I always forget how much I'm passionate about these dudes(even though their shits constantly in my playlist) till I hear something that's live

  26. S.... V....

    Banjo don’t make it bluegrass. You guys can suck my balls.

  27. G.... T....

    Wish these guys would come through El Paso or New Mexico!

  28. S.... P....

    "...heartbreak in an empty home, force to take these sleepless nights alone" these lyrics hit me like a ton of bricks. For the first time in my adult life I've been experiencing exactly this. Hearing them sung out made me an instant fan of this band, and just a little less alone. Cheers!

  29. E.... D....

    I love you neal

  30. w.... b....

    Its all good. Listen to the storie

  31. A.... M....

    I Love This

  32. f.... ....

    I love this song! The album version always trips me up, because he says "and there's something on the windshield, but I can't fucking see" which makes it seem like he should be able to see because something is on the windshield. He switched it on this recording " But there's something on the windshield, and I can't fucking see", it is a little difference, but it makes all the difference for me, haha. I wonder if anyone else has noticed/been bothered by this?

  33. J.... R....

    YESSSSS!!!!! Gonna see them in Ft. Wayne for my birthday!!!!!

  34. J.... R....

    P.S.- play somewhere near Indianapolis so I can see you live!!!!!!

  35. J.... R....

    I'd heard these guys before and liked them, but this song...first time I heard it, I damn near cried. Broke my heart. Thank you GSMFBG!!!! Nobody writes like this. You guys are a fucking treasure!!!

  36. S.... N....

    How 'bout that glorious beard tho.

    S.... N....

    Steve Nicin' 'tis a fine set of whiskery.

  37. l.... ....

    A pleasing sound to the ears, with an abundance of fine tonal qualities and emotional nuances that kept this listener engaged throughout its entirety, in realms including, but not limited to, both cognition and audition. Tldr; me likey.

    l.... ....

    Indeed my good man, I concur.

  38. A.... S....

    Honestly the way it ends on this recording is deliberate creative genius given the context of the song.

    A.... S....

    Just speaks to me my God why is this not What we need to hear .? People plz find music again and this is a great place to start ,songs used to speak to us not your truck your girl but your soul find it again or we all lose

  39. M.... W....

    This song warms my heart

  40. P.... t....

    I saw some bullshit interview done with greensky about this song. They were trying to shame them into apologislzing for the lyrics to this song... saying "this song sounds awfully angry" etc. God forbid that this song touches on the reality of some fickle hypergamous women divorcing men and taking half their money.

  41. V.... ....

    one of my favorite bands to see live

  42. K.... R....

    Saw these guys in Columbus Ohio recently. Absolutely amazing show, I'm still blown away with the musicianship

  43. M.... H....

    Love this song

  44. W.... M....

    this song has such a special place in my heart it got me through some tough times

    W.... M....

    That's for sure!!!!!!

  45. D.... R....

    Some music touches a person's soul and this is one of those songs.

  46. A.... M....

    Utterly awesome

  47. B.... H....

    Good stuff man!!

  48. T.... V....

    I’m going to see them Saturday

  50. K.... W....

    One of my favorite songs. The lyrics man!!!

  51. M.... Z....

    I'm a Mexican. And I love bluegrass. Life doesn't make sense to me anymore

    M.... Z....

    Miguel Zamora, I know what you mean; I'm a gringo and I like tejano.

    M.... Z....

    I’m half Asian half white and love Zambra hahaha crazy world

    M.... Z....

    Esta todo bien amigo.
    I'll listen to a good Mariachi band all afternoon.
    Then Norteno all night.

  52. T.... F....

    Red rocks in September 17!!!

  53. s.... ....

    I love this fuckin band!

  54. B.... B....

    paul, specifically, but everyone else in the band as well. .. not a joke by any stretch. I used to buy grass from paul...... think back to mona shores. ;) that's irrelevent. this song talked down a close friend of mine with a gun in his mouth. I can never explain how grateful I feel for this music, as well as kerosene, and demons. you guys have literally saved lives. cheers.

  55. M.... L....

    ✌🎃👍

  56. S.... I....

    Wow first time I heard of these guys brilliant

  57. K.... V....

    Feels like warm cotton in my chest

  58. K.... V....

    Help is in the way, sometimes help is in the way

    K.... V....

  59. K.... V....

    Some days we are the bug and some days we are the windshield

    K.... V....

    keep it to yourself karen you fucking imbecile

  60. K.... M....

    I had always wondered what ever happened to Shaggy from Scooby Doo. Brilliant song though.

    K.... M....

  61. E.... I....

    yazık la herkeşin çalgısı tamam esas oğlana eğleşsin diye keman vermişler yokluktan gitar gibi takılıyo

  64. L.... ....

    chills
    <3

  65. B.... M....

    I fill my days with theseBoys music and I keep coming back to this one! Rush hour traffic stands no chance against me with this tune blasting and the windows down! GSMFBG for life! Don't ever stop!

    B.... M....

    fuck you blake

    B.... M....

    @Max Livingstone-Peters Fuck you. Ya slack jawed bitch.

  66. S.... W....

    So much emotion and amazing energy! Thank you for sharing ~ LOVE GSBG!

  67. F.... A....

    Lol I still can't get over the band name

  68. D.... B....

    I refuse to identify these guys as country because I HATE country music, but I can't stop listening to this song

    D.... B....

    Connor Hein there is definitely a big difference between pop country like they have out there today and real country music (ralph stanley, merle haggard, etc...)

    D.... B....

    This is what country music used to be

    D.... B....

    What you probably like is Americana or Roots music, i.e., music that is a 'blend' of one or more of the American music genres of blues, country or jazz. This band is a nice blend of bluegrass (jazz + country) and rock (blues + country).

    D.... B....

    thats cause its bluegrass you r-word

    D.... B....

    Connor Hein bluegrass dude

  69. C.... C....

    Such a phenomenal band!

    C.... C....

    i have a phenomenal cock

  70. P.... t....

    I like to think he is bellowing every frustration, anger, confusion, sadness into that microphone... but I'm sure most listening to this song understand that

    P.... t....

    wow jbdmb tell us how you really feel you sensitive bitch

    P.... t....

    @Max Livingstone-Peters coming from a man who has a hyphenated name.

  71. M.... K....

    can anyone recommend a song as good as this I cant find one

    M.... K....

    in control, atlantic city, forget everything, the four, money for nothing, reverend, jaywalking, THE CHAIN - all by greensky
    I know some of these are covers, but careful, be prepared for jawdrops

    M.... K....

    Listen to Calamity Cubes- Eternal Fall

    M.... K....

    Trampled by Turtles playing Wait so long. If you like Newgrass music it is amazing.

    M.... K....

    Alabama Pines by Jason Isbell?

    M.... K....

    if we were vampires - jason isbell

  72. J.... H....

    damn the things in my life that are relative to this song.

    What is this song about?

    B.... ....

    +boogabearr a windshield.

    B.... ....

    +boogabearr Divorce. Lead singer went through one a while back. IMO at least.

    B.... ....

    superdicks!

  75. B.... ....

    This kinda digs a little too close to Albina from Horse Feathers for my comfort...the singer sounds different, but the build up and everything else sounds very, very similar.

    "there's a secret in the basement, i can feel it through the floor, i don't think this heart can take the weight of deception anymore" *goosebumps* can't wait to see these guys in a couple weeks at Red Rocks =))))

    J.... R....

    +Jess R. They're headlining there next summer as well!

    J.... R....

    @James Torrey sweet!

    J.... R....

    goosebumps is by travis scott you dumb fuck

    J.... R....

    They are a great band, but I wouldn't call this bluegrass.

    Yep. That's world class song writing.

  79. E.... K....

    so fuckin' awesome!!!! Love it!!!!

  80. P.... ....

    Wwowwwww es la tercera que oigo y cada vez me gustan massss!! Genialesssss chicossssss!!

  81. M.... R....

    This a very good country group and I wouldn"t particulary call the true blue grass , but this group is very proffesional!

    M.... R....

    Phoffessional!

  82. h.... ....

    I created a YouTube account just so I could write how beautiful, heart wrenching, inspirational, and heavy this song and this band are to me. Love and light!

  83. H.... H....

    Could this song be any better???? Shoulda used this version on the album

  84. c.... s....

    geeeeeeeeaaa...... awesome band!!! all songs i know are absolutely good....all of then

  85. 6.... ....

    the best band in america

  86. s.... M....

    I love these guys, was recently turned on to them, by a dear friend....can't get enough of Greensky Bluegrass

  87. t.... ....

    This is the future of keeping it real in the music business.

    t.... ....

    what is reality tho

  88. P.... ....

    FYI I have probably replayed this at least 50 times. Love this track!

  89. G.... v....

    wow! another awesome song, sadly no tour schedule for The Netherlands.. 

  90. S.... G....

    That is excellent. I saw GSMFBG in Baltimore last night, and also at DelFest. They played this at DelFest and it killed. Last night they played it as the encore. Just brilliant.

    S.... G....

    Hell yeah, I saw them at Ram's Head too and was blown away by how good of a show it was.  I've considered myself a fan for a little while now, but seeing them live catapulted them into easily being one of my top three favorite bands.  It was a nonstop, fast-paced jamstravaganza that rocked me to my core.  Unfortunately though, I haven't come across any youtube videos which accurately represent just how awesome they are live. Their videos by 'Second Story Garage' are really sweet but still don't come close to capturing the awesomely high-octane energy given off during any one of their sick improvised jams that accompanied just about every song.  I just can't say enough good things about that performance and can't wait to see them again!

    S.... G....

    Steve Goodman Del yea!

    S.... G....

    Del Yeah!!!

    S.... G....

    no one gives a fuck steve

    S.... G....

    finger bang? are you fucking serious?

  91. L.... A....

    Great tune, great performance, love everything about it- but it's a long way from bluegrass- not even close. Acoustic alternative maybe.

    L.... A....

    keep your opinions to yourself Lloyd, also its not fucking 1492 so change your doddamn name you're not a knight of the round table

    L.... A....

    You do realize instead of the obvious blue sky green grass. its really backwards. That's the irony of it. greensky bluegrass. You literally took it as a genre of music. 4 years have gone by since you posted this comment. Hopefully by now you understood that.

  92. D.... B....

    Best song ever

  93. s.... v....

    Lovin this Band!

  94. F.... R....

    I'm so glad for discover this band. Greetings from Colombia

  95. H.... P....

    Beautiful :)

  96. m.... ....

    Not a huge fan of Bluegrass music.............till now! Love this song and group. Edgy Bluegrass music, love it! ♥⁀˚⋆.‿♥✿•*

    m.... ....

    or infamous stringdusters

    m.... ....

    the dusters are top notch

    m.... ....

    This isn't exactly bluegrass....try Rob McCoury, Flatt Lonesome or Earl Scruggs for genuine bluegrass.

    m.... ....

    They opened for Tedeschi Trucks, years back. Best show I've ever seen. TTB is a given, but these guys really solidified the night.

    m.... ....

    misslantana52 check out the deep south band

  97. J.... H....

    Its gonna be on the new album
