Valerie June - Pushin' Against A Stone Lyrics
Bleeding blazing hot
Hot as the sun
Fortune teller told a tale
Of things to be done
Been pushin' my weight
And I believe to my soul
It's time to move on
There you go, there you go
Try to fill, all the space
In your hollow hearted soul
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin' up against a stone
And other people's time
Patient preacher told a tale
Of souls lost to be won
With all of the glory
With all of the fame
At the deepest shade
It's all colored the same
There you go, There you go
Try to fill, all the space
In your hollow hearted soul
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin' up against a stone
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin' up against a stone
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
I believe to my soul
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
I believe
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
In my hollow hearted soul
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Pushin' up against a stone
Pushin' up against a stone
Pushin' up against a stone

Valerie June Pushin' Against A Stone Comments
She sounds a lot like Linda Womack of Womack and Womack. Check out the albulm Radio music man. Esp the cuts Night rider and Romeo and Juliet
Pushing against the stone is a reference to a Greek tail about a man who pushes a rock up a never ending hill till he gets to worn out and tired and the rock rolls down the hill.it's a metaphor for life when the rock falls down it represents death but yet for some reason I'm missing and can't comprehend honestly the man goes back down the hill and pushes the room know back up it even though he will fail (die)sooner or later as to say life is brutal and hard but worth it a d chooses to live again and again when pushing the rock back up the hill.to a degree understand the story but don't ever put someone down or say suicide is stupid.sometimes people are talked I to knowing their place ad
I'm drunk I fucked the comment up.but yeah some truth to the story but I don't people to be stupid about shit and think that they should except certain things or put others down in certain ways from the moral of an old Greek story which this song is touching on.
"Dealin' on the devil's dime"... !!! I'm sayin. Cuz Valerie's f$ckin sayin...
belle voix et guitare fuzz nous plonge dans une ambiance sucrée et acide comme les prods d'Isaac Hayes et une voix qui pourrait être de la Motown
This song + the ransacked house got me so emotionally charged. Had to look up. 💙
Thank you Bailey Sarian
I am here because of James Mcavoy 💗
Amazing...wow I am loving this!
Is she famous in the south?
Increíble.!
If that was hendrix on guitar everyone be creaming all over it ...
Great! But isn't the melody of the guitar from one of Portishead's songs ??? Can't remember which one though
Thank you gracie and frankie for bringin’ me here
....Thank U too "Frankie and Grace" !!!
Fantastic song!!! Thanks, Ivette
I love her ❤️❤️❤️
I discovered this woman after watching Lila and Eve. When the movie went off I could t help but sit there in the dark listening to her. Amazing
M3&MY6 That’s exactly what I’m doing at the moment!
grace & frankie is an amazing show
Phenomenal expression of deep soul and infinite beauty. She got it right. A breath of fresh air

Hot as the sun
Fortune teller told a tale
Of things to be done

And I believe to my soul it's time to move on
There you go, There you go
Try to fill, all the space
In your hollow hearted soul
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin' up against a stone
Dealin' on the devil's dime
And other people's time
Patient preacher told a tale of souls lost to be won
With all of the glory
With all of the fame
At the deepest shade
It's all colored the same
There you go, There you go
Try to fill, all the space
In your hollow hearted soul
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin' up against a stone
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin' up against a stone
she's a bad mamajama
Dizam!!! her voice is surreal and outstandingly rich and beautiful. She is an old soul and the penultimate songtress! Bravo Ms. June!!!!!! And the guitar solo...good-googaleegoo!!!!
Im all my years of listening to music. Miss June you have brought in such a broad mix of music together. From Blue's to Soul to Rock and Country, sprinkle in a little bit of Motown and Rap. Beautiful music to my ears !!!
One Of The Most Highest Song...
most underrated guitar solo of all FUCKING TIME at 3:47....this is like evh, page, hendrix-esque type of solo. its perfect.
Frank X I agree
Only discovered you 2 days before your concert in Seattle last month. love your music.
absolutely incredible.
black keys all over it. almost every song on the album.
Are you all crazy? The lyrics are great, but you shouldn't be allowed to be a famous singer if you can't sing. Her voice is horrendous. Have you heard her live?
why are you criticizing her can you do better? If so write some songs play your instrument record a CD instead of being a jealous hating hypocritical bitch
I feel like this song is my soul.
Did you know that this is james mcavoy's fave album
+Clydlyn Ching Not his favorite ! the last he bought :)
She's awesome
Bleeding blazing hot
Hot as the sun
Fortune teller told a tale
Of things to be done
Been pushin´ my weight up against a stone
And I believe to my soul it´s time to move on
There you go, there you go
Try to fill, all the space
In your hollow hearted soul
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin´ up against the stone
Dealin´ on the devils´ dime
And other people´s time
Patient preacher told a tale of souls lost to be won
With all of the glory
With all of the fame
At the deepest shade
It´s all colored the same
There you go, there you go
Try to fill, all the space
In your hollow hearted soul
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin´ up against the stone
Carry on, carry on
Try to fill, all the space
Pushin´ up against the stone
Thank you!
just heard this song on the radio..had to find it!!!
Amazing Song! Sounds like a classic from the 60's
she's such a rock star I can't get enough <3
I fell in love with her first time I saw hear on PBS and have been a fan ever since. I was blown away by her God-given talent!
She is so good
I love her music it is going back to the roots of soul music aldi updated love her music going by
Watched on ACL became a instant fan give me more and her band
Same here I caught her performance by coincidence.
So this lady isnt considered a country star? I need to know why? Bluegrass is a country music. No?
Does anyone have the lyrics to to this song?
Ma kako je diiiiiiivnoooooo !
I saw her live at a festival, to be honest I never knew who she was before but I fell in love with her...
Ms. June has that unique vocal approach, timbre and sound that is reminiscent of why Billie Holiday was so popular. Valerie June is quite original and endlessly creative. Is she perfect? No, not at all -- but, that's part of the appeal. The tone, the way she makes it so compelling. If my memory serves me -- the late Minnie Ripperton (a former member of the Rotary Connection) was similar. Both ladies are wonderful at what they do and the fact that they are emulating no one -- is refreshing. I also like the guitar on this, fuzzy and sharp at the same time. But, Valerie's entire band is first rate. Look forward to more songs from Valerie.
love her
Thank you Valerie for making music that is nice to my ears and soul.
Whooo! Good stuff
Wow! I don't care about where I can steal a free download of this recording because i just have to have the physical CD in my collection. It's just too cool!
She rocks!
I Love this Woman
Incomparable. I feel so blessed for having found you Valerie. Your music is therapy.
