Biografía:
Aclamado desde la pequeña ciudad de Moscow , Idaho, las canciones de Josh Ritter son un extraño regalo de belleza natural, intuitiva. Nacido a finales de los 70 de padres neurocientíficos, Josh se compró su primera guitarra en el K-Mart tras escuchar el clásico de Bob Dylan y Johnny Cash “Girl From the North Country”. Comenzó en el Oberlin College con la intención de seguir los pasos de sus padres científicos, pero en su lugar se descubrió componiendo la música de artistas como Gillian Welch, Townes Van Zandt y Leonard Cohen.

Mama got a look at you and got a little worried
C/G
Papa got a look at you and got a little worried
G
The pastor got a look and said, y'all had better hurry
D
Send her off to a little bible college in Missouri
G
And now you come back, saying you know a little bit about
C/G
Every little thing they ever hoped you'd never figure out
G
Eve ate the apple ‘cause the apple was sweet

What kinda’ god would ever keep a girl from getting what she needs?
[Chorus]
G
And I'm
C/G
Getting ready to get down
G
Getting ready to get down
D
Getting ready to get down
[Verse 2]
G
Now, people cross the street when you walk in their direction
C/G
Talk between their teeth throwin' epithets
G
And the doctor thinks the devil must've got you by your senses
D
But to live the way you please doesn't sound like possession
G
It's four long years studying the bible
C/G
Infidels, Jezebels, Salomes and Delilahs

Back off the bus in your own hometown
D
Say you didn't like me then you probably won't like me now

No I can't waits I gotta see you againses

Turn the other cheek, take no chances

Jesus hates your high school dances
[Break]
G C/G G D x2
[Verse 3]
G
Said your soul needed savin’ so they sent you off to bible school
C/G
You learned a little more than they had heard was in the golden rule
G
Be good to everybody, be a strength to the weak
D
Be a joy to the joyful, be the laughter in the grief
G
And give your love freely to whoever that you please
C/G
Don't let nobody tell you 'bout the who you ought to be
G
And when you get damned in the popular opinion

It's just another damn of the damns you're not giving
[Chorus]
G
And I'm

If you wanna’ see a miracle, watch me get down
