Josh Ritter - Good Man Lyrics

Here NOT from House. ...from going to a Josh Ritter show in Denver back in 2007.

Coming from house m d 😍🤘🤘

Everybody lies

House M.D.

House M.D

NOT here from stupid pill-popping House.

HOUSEEEEE

Thinking of you.

Dr house🔊✌

An oldie but a goodie. Very good. The best.

I love this song

is he john ritter kin?

anyone from House?

aggressive fkr

I found this song in a time when I thought the world was against me. Wondering why bad things kept happening to me no matter what I did. I had to convince myself I was a good man, this song helped.

Oh fuck off

Wtf. Lmao

Goooood stuffffffff here... I'm a good man for ya....

LYRICS: These chords are old but we shake hands,
Cause I believe that they're the good guys,
We can use all the help we can,
So many minor chords outside.

I fell in love with the sound,
Oh I love to sing along, with you,
We got tunes we kicked around, some,
We got a bucket that the tunes go through.

Babe we both had dry spells,
Hard times, in bad lands,
I'm a good man for ya,
I'm a good man.

Last night there was a horse in the road,
I was twisting in the hair-pin,
My hands held on, my mind let go,
And back to you my heart went skipping.

I found the inside of the road,
Thought about the first time that I met you,
All those glances that we stole, Sometimes,
if you want them then you've got to.

Babe we both had dry spells,
Hard times, in bad lands,
I'm a good man for ya,
I'm a good man.

They shot a Western south of here,
They had him cornered in a canyon,
And even his horse had disappeared,
They said it got run down by a bad, bad man.

You're not a good shot, but I'm worse,
And there's so much where we ain't been yet,
So swing up on this little horse,
The only thing we'll hit is sunset.

Babe we both had dry spells,
Hard times, in bad lands,
I'm a good man for ya,
I'm a good man.

Babe we both had..
Babe we both had, baby we both had,
Babe we both had, you and I both had,
Babe we both had, baby we both had.

Babe we both had dry spells,
Hard times, in bad lands,
I'm a good man for ya,
I'm a good man.

hokulealinda : always good to see the words!

house is the shit man

i love house

I love this song and I didn't hear it on house.

It closes the 3rd season. Great song.

good man and good song ^^

This song was played to a video of my dad at his funeral in 2010.  It will always be the heart and soul song of my dad.  Im in my 50s and I cry every time I hear it.

Nice. Fair play mate.

Well, that made me cry too.

Carl Nash so much ❤️

Made me cry... Your comment.

Josh Ritter is a genius

Gary Barker Indeed.

His words sound so simple and the stories are like they've been in front of me my whole life. But nobody else could have put it onto paper or into song like him.
He's one of the greatest for sure

just stumbled on this guy .good musician, GREAT POET !

I've known of him for years, his music has always resonated with me, and you are right: he is a good musician & great poet! Actually, I'd upgrade him to GREAT in the musician dept, as well. :)

I'm here cause Dr Gregory Ha-Ha- House.

Dal kaos venne l' assurdo, nell' assurdo la follia e tra la follia sorse l' amore: dunque ridiamo. Se amore fu, fu per grazia e non solo per calcolo, ma inanzi a questa grazia bestemmiammo i nostri fratelli. Dunque se rideremo sará non solo per manifestare l' amore ma per proteggerlo, per curare la follia, per capire l' assurdo ed ordinare il kaos. Il nostro sorriso sará un velo, ma non una finta.

What type of music would you say this is? I like it and what to find others similar.

Singer-Songwriter.

+Bonita Phillips I will recommend Glen Hansard. Although not exactly the same type somehow I find their music very similar.

there are few good songs like this, but if you keep listening you will find many more, old an d new.

Bonita Phillips
Josh Ritter is mostly considered folk or rock. I would say he is most like Bob Dylan, Woodie Guthrie, and Bruce springsteen, but their is none exactly like Josh Ritter.

Bonita Phillips Americana

I really only like this song because of House MD, so...

Absolutely right!

That's too bad. 

Focus Addiction. Mee too

woo don't get me started on crippled assholes .. reminds me of my ex

This was the song that got me hooked on J. Ritter!

23 people are bad men

This is my 'deep sigh, better just keep going' song.

yeah.... ^^

Wow we are blessed to have music around like this. Albums like this are few and rare. You guys should also check out Garry Bean - Northern Town. If you haven't already.

House 3

"these chords are old but we shake hands... cuz i believe that they're good guys"

season 4 :)

"You must be Dr. House, I've heard of you."
"Most people have. It's also a noun."
Love that line, don't remember where its from though

SMURFANDTURF535 lmao

A motherfucking gypsy brought me here

This cats good.

forget house good music brought me here

Although it can be pretty hard to see ;)

"The Good Man" Stephen King led me here.

He is. He really is) He's just in pain, like many of us.

well damn :P

My friend on Omegle brought me there. Named Pablo. He Brought me to listen this beautiful song. My internet connection was broke when I chat with him on Omegle.I hv not had time to ask his fb acc or his twitter, I hv not had time to ask it.PABLO, if u read this, ’m Esa. U 1st met w/ me on Omegle at 3.33 pm on my country & 2.33 am on ur country. U talk to me bout ur ‘love’. I know u like Jason Mraz.I know u like Writing. U want me to write sumthin in English. I write this for u. Do u remember me?

No, he's not. But he's amazing.

Pandora brought me here! great song!

Thats beautiful <3

ben iyi bir çocuğum

When I was in 11th grade, my dad brought home a Josh Ritter album for no real reason. He just saw it in the music store, and picked it up. He brought it home and listened to it on the stereo, and everyone in the house just came into the room and started listening too. No tv, no talking, just listening, song after song... why aren't there more artists who can make things like that happen?

There are. You just haven't found them yet.

who the fuck is ben wright?

Josh Ritter brought me here

* top of the charts

I think it's a shame that people only know about such an awesome song like this from tv. Music like this should be at the

Chase would probably disagree with that statement in this episode lol

Thumbs up if House did not bring you here.


The top comments should be about how amazing Josh Ritter is as a songwriter and how musically talented the Royal City Band is.

Oh no, a song was in a popular television show. What a nightmare!

Josh Ritter and the Royal City Band in concert rock , folk and celebrate like no other band I have ever heard.
Thinkin' bout seein' 'em?
Do it.

I just bought my tickets for # 5 or 6

My counter argument to the douches who whore on old songs with comments like "I want to apologize for my generation murdering good music."

Dr. House.

House MD ends today forever.. this song makes me so nostalgic.... loved the show... :(

House is pretty famous in doctor USA :D

who the fuck is house?

the man i love brought me here

I think it's a saddle whose colour that just matches the background : )

Why does that album-picture show a half eaten horse? :o

I came here because a friend showed me the artist, no tv shows :D

most of the people are here becuz of house, but i'M here becuz of castle
they played come and find me in the 3X22 episode and now i'm addicted to josh ritter :D
thanks castle crew for have good music on the show!

my mouse click brought me here

the girl im in love with brought me here

@WingZeroXXXG

You spelled God wrong ;)

Sorry, but i hate all people who pressed the dislike button.

good song but dang that high pitched noise drives me crazy!

Eddie sent me here. Bam.

if your good taste for music brought you here thumbs up!!!!.....

mhm mhm well I brought MYSELF here, BOOM

ten people arent good men

Thumbs up if EmmaWatsonUpdate brought you here :)

@GabrielePolo1992 HE didn't but you get a thumbs up all the same :)

@GrantAliciaDawson Ummm --- "Three's Company" star "JOHN RITTER" died in 2003. Josh Ritter is only 31 years old. Three's Company was only on from 1976-1984. Do the math. Good artist for sure.

@GrantAliciaDawson you're two letters off...

You've got to be a good man to act in "Three's Company" and then be able to write such good music.

That's John Ritter.

just bought it on vinyl :D stoked

He's a good man, and thorough

Babe we both had dry spells, hard times in bad lands, I'm a good man for ya.
My favorite part

7 people arent good men!!!

i would like the good man comment but 69 likes is just sooo much more interesting

Damn, that album cover is pretty friggin amazing (just like the song).

My favorite song from House!

House MD

he is indeed a good man.

This guy is great. I love the art on the cover too...
