    "Odessa"
    I’ve got Odessa on my mind, I stay worried all the time
    Wish I didn’t hurt so much but I don’t have that kind of luck
    It’s a low down dirty shame now I can’t even hear her name
    So I’m selling off my pride with Odessa on my mind
    I’ve got Odessa in my head, I think I like to wake up dead
    Then I finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
    Yes I know I’m talking bad but I’ve done lost the best I had
    Ain’t no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind
    I’ve got Odessa on my mind, I think I rather would be blind
    Than to see her walk away, how much pain can one fool take?
    See them lights out in the field, a testament to things men yield
    But I ain’t got nothing but time and Odessa on my mind
    I’ve got Odessa in my head, sometimes I like to wake up dead
    Then I finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
    Yes I know I’m talking bad but I’ve done lost the best I had
    Ain’t no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind

    My grandmother's name was Odessa. She died on my lap in church 39 years ago. This song means a whole lot to me.. I was 5 when I hold her as she died. I miss her..

    I am so thankful for this song. I named my daughter, Odessa and found this song shortly after she was born in May 2024. We played it often because we liked it. But NOW she loves it. I play it for her when she is crying and she stops every time (unless she is hungry). She was irate trying to go to sleep tonight and she heard this song, and immediately stopped. She now sleeping in my arms thanks to this song ❤

    My Granny’s name was Odessa but known to most as simply ‘Dessie’. She owned and managed The Cowboy Cafe in Canyon Texas during the 1960’s until her move to Southeastern Washington state in the mid 70’s. Her pies at the Cowboy cafe were highly sought after. At the end of her life, Granny’s second cousin Bob Wills was often the topic of discussion. I was fortunate enough to get to care for and live with my grandmother at the end and during her final years. Many afternoons I found myself playing UA-cam videos of Bob Wills and his band for her on my iphone. Granny and her mother tended to Bill’s garden
    (they were not fond of his wives or mistresses) Dessie spoke often of how her brothers and Bill made instruments from utensils and scraps because “we were so poor that’s all we could find to make music as kids during the Depression.”
    Music was their love and drive and passion in life - it was everything they had and all they ever wanted.
    Her love of music continued until the very end of her life. Not much has changed Granny. She was an incredible bass guitar player, she told everyone who would listen that she had the most beautiful great granddaughter - she loved me zealously and was extremely protective and thought I was the prettiest thing she had ever seen in her life.❤️
    God bless you Grandma Dessie and God Bless Charley Crockett.

    I know this song is about Odessa Texas, but I can’t help but think of the small town of Odessa Ontario that I grew up in.
    I spent endless days in the creek across the road, or in the farmers fields out back just exploring and interacting with critters and nature.
    The 3 or 4 years I spent there will forever be the highlight of my childhood.
    Thank you for giving me a soundtrack to go along with the memories!

    I’ve seen him perform 3 times in concert here in the Midwest, all were killer shows! Out of the 54,000 some minutes listened in my Spotify wrapped this year, Charley earned 4,500 of them. Every album he puts out just blows my expectations out of the water. It’s been a great experience these last 7 years listening to his music! There’s a reason spotify said I’m in the top .01% of his listeners. Simply can’t say thanks enough for all the amazing music over the years Charley!

I traveled hard for a couple years myself when I was 18 with the alice pack, banjo, dog, zero money always, sadness forever, combat boots, etc.. and all of his songs just really speak to the pure experience of it. (Well, and Choking Victim, but shhhh...)
