LaRue, Stoney - Box #10 Lyrics
Well out of southern Illinois, come a down home country boy
He's gonna make it in the city playin guitar in the studio
Well he hadn't been there an hour, when he met a Broadway flower
You know she took him for his money and she left him in a cheap motel
Tell me how'm I ever gonna break the news to the folks back home
Well I was gonna be a big success, but that's all ended up a mess
And in the process, I got messed up too
Hello mom and dad I hate to call ya collect
But I ain't got a cent to my name
Well I'm sleepin in the hotel doorway
And tonight they say it's gonna rain
And if I could only get me some money
I'd be back on my feet again
Well out of southern Illinoos, still worry about their boy
But this boy's goin' home soon's he gets the fare
Well as soon as I got the bread, I got a pop upside my head
You know they left me in an alley, took my money and my guitar too
Hello mom and dad I hate to call ya collect
But I ain't got a cent to my name
Well I'm sleepin in the hotel doorway
And tonight they say it's gonna rain
And if I could only get me some money
I'd be back on my feet again

You just should just stick to your hillbilly music and let the legend jim croce sing it you version is garbage
Original jim croce cannot he beat. But this is the closest second iv herd.
My hats off to you guys
Awesome
Takes balls to take on one of Jim’s songs..
Solid piece of garbage. Don't do Jim this way. Really trying not to hate, the musicians behind him sound incredible, but if you're going to do it, do it right, please man.
Way to go, dude,.....you just bastardized this song and crapped on Croce......but you're living the dream, right?
What a great cover! I think Jim would approve.
Stoney larue: you hit the nail on the head. Well done.
Nope. Live it. Write your own.Not fan. I will gladly delivery a pipe.
Jim still did it better. You're awesome tho!
hell yeah man
Hello sir! thanks for covering Croce's old tune good job and im glad you liked jims music!
Never heard a cover of his tune performed so well. Love it.
Disgrace
JR York it’s decent
See that Nashville number chart got way too many 1s, kind of vanilla'd it up for me. Good mix tho
Grew up in southern Oklahoma, made a life in south Louisana, love this kind of music, love me some Stoney Larue.
I love Jim Croce and had my doubts about a relatively unknown cover of this amazing song, but I must admit Stoney kind of put his own touches on it and delivered a great song. I'm impressed and will continue to see what else he comes up with. It's hard to impress a Croce fan with a cover but well done.
I'll be 31yrs old in a week and I'm a Huge JIM CROCE Fan even though noone my age knows who the hell he is.
This guy ruined a good song!!!
whaaat ur crazy.
It’s pretty good
Love this song stoney larue is a badass good bless tx county
Took a good folk song and made it country, still pretty good though
I always loved this song, I love the way you rocked it ! I am going to play this with my jamming buddies , I think they will like it !
As a cowboy of all my DAMNED life! Of 49 years young I say TY!! For this tune and Btw my mother's name is!! LaRue!! Lol for the record and good lord bless us all! Yeeehaww!
Awesome cover
Stoney larue is one badass dude
I always knew this would work as country. I used to do it more as Johnny Cash. This almost feels (musically) like The Band
It's pretty obvious him and Cody Canada were largely influenced by The Band. Specifically The Last Waltz. Between the two of them they've covered The Weight, Ophelia, Forever Young, and Who Do You Love...4 songs off the album. Stoney also covers Van Morrison, and you can't not hear Muddy Waters in Stoney's "Well well well"s. Any fan of Stoney that hasn't watched The Last Waltz is missing out. It so clearly influenced a lot of our favorite music.
good info because it confirms my theory : )
Love this guy's music
Great Jim Croce cover!
Love this. :)
how does this only have 7.2k views??
Hey Stoney, Love all your tunes. Box #10 is one of my all-time favorites. best remake ever...Why didn't you just repackage your live acoustic performance for this album? Box #10 never sounded better. If it aint broke?...
Andy Miller
Awesome!
Box#10, awsum as always 👍🏻
Hi Stoney, just want you you know how much I LOVE your music. It means soo much to me. Thanks Alot !!!! 💙💙💙
