Coolest song to end the first season with. And that slow zoom on Stringer's face as he tastes what it's really like to have full control with Avon in jail, foreshadowing his ambition. I watched this show years ago but I don't remember it being this fucking good.
Thank you for posting this beautiful song it touches my soul I know he's flying up and high flying high up in heaven thank you mr. Jesse Winchester and thank you again for posting this God bless Justified
[Verse 1] Step by step All the happy Saints go marching in And if a Saint step out of line he'll have to start again 'Cause Jacob's golden ladder gets slippery at the top And many a happy-go-lucky saint has made that long long drop [Chorus] If I'm late don't wait Go on without me I may tarry awhile 'Cause I need to know Before I go How come the Devil smiles If I'm late don't wait Go on without me I may tarry awhile 'Cause I need to know Before I go How come the Devil smiles [Verse 2] Free from care, free from fear The Saints are trooping in The children play all around the throne innocent of sin A trillion voices sing the name the mortal may not know And Heaven's wall's too high to hear the trouble down below [Chorus] If I'm late don't wait Go on without me I may tarry awhile 'Cause I need to know Before I go How come the Devil smiles I need to know Before I go How come the Devil smiles I need to know Before I go How come the Devil smiles
If I'm late, don't wait, go on without me. I may tear it a while. Cause I mean to know before I go, How come the Devil smiles. Real fuckin deep. Think about it.
@@jigri_pokhri it's more the motto of McNulty and Lester, they can't ignore their fixation on guys like Marlo, Stringer, or Clay even in spite of the self destruction it leads to. They have their moral code, but those guys they chase don't and in a way I think they keep up with the chase because they can't stand to see them laughing and smiling at the spoils of their ignorance of morality. "They don't get to win, WE get to win" So in a very literal way, they cant help but to see why the devil smiles
*Free from care, free from fear* *The saints are trooping in* *Children play all around the throne* *Innocent of sin* *A trillion voices sing the name the* *mortal may not know* *Heaven’s walls too high to hear; the trouble down below*

The Wire, am 43 years old, besides The Sopranos nothing comes close!
What about Boardwalk Empire?
Just finished season 1 of The Wire what a damn good song to finish the season. Damn good song!
Wait until you hear and see the rest of the serie and seasons and all! Still damn good serie
Best tv show of all time bro
The Wire is a MasterPiece all the way through!
Just finished s1 and this was the ending song whew it’s fire
@@mylesbishop1240 Welcome aboard!
That Omar scene (you know the one) left me dumbfounded
Stringer looking at the camera like a boss...
Hungry man gets his in the end.
The last episode of" The wlre" season 1 brought me here
I mean I can’t name another better show.l besides the sopranos
Same here
It just brought me here a year later. Hope a lot of other people do too👌🏼
same
@@tucko11 I agree, have u seen MrRobot tho? My fav shows:
1.Sopranos/Wire
2.MrRobot
3.Better Call Saul
Such a great song and so fitting for the end of season 1.
The end of the Wire season 1 brought me here. This was the best part of the episode!
Hmmm, I don't know why, but this music gets me in the mood for some delicious Memphis BBQ.
The song is blues based and Memphis is well known for the blues and bbq. I love Memphis!
Just found this song after re watching The Wire, what a tune, and what a tv series, easily in my Top 5
Top 5? You mean the 5 seasons are your top 5. That's the only acceptable answer
@@Rustylad12 Nah, sopranos moggs.
@@KarlikNosOk mr gabagool lets get you back to bed and get your schizo meds
Jesse Winchester wasn't this hard-edged when he was younger. He grew some balls. Awesome harp playing.
The Wire brought me here as well! I’ve always heard it’s a great show but wow! So damn good! This is the perfect song choice!
...Omar comin'

@@MaglaMach sad but true. The GUNT is failing
This song ... oh man, listened to it for 5 hours straight since i found it.
innit
He wrote great songs.
The wire 🫡 truly a landmark in American history. The very last episode marked the end of an Era both in television as well in culture.
"The game is the game. Same as it ever was."
Can't Abort the Retort!
Fun fact: Jesse Winchester was born on Barksdale Army Air Field, Louisiana
I guess it's true what they say, "All The Pieces Matter."
Another reason to hype The Wire; introducing this great song to me 🙌
I'm well late to the party! Just recently started watching The Wire, got S5 left to watch. Amazing show with some amazing music 👊🏾
The Wire a goated show
The Wire..... great song
The Wire, and Six Feet Under, both on HBO, are the 2 BEST series to be on TV, EVER!❤💯💫
Thank you for posting this beautiful song it touches my soul I know he's flying up and high flying high up in heaven thank you mr. Jesse Winchester and thank you again for posting this God bless Justified

[Verse 1]
Step by step
All the happy Saints go marching in
And if a Saint step out of line he'll have to start again
'Cause Jacob's golden ladder gets slippery at the top
And many a happy-go-lucky saint has made that long long drop
[Chorus]
If I'm late don't wait
Go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles
If I'm late don't wait
Go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles
[Verse 2]
Free from care, free from fear
The Saints are trooping in
The children play all around the throne innocent of sin
A trillion voices sing the name the mortal may not know
And Heaven's wall's too high to hear the trouble down below
[Chorus]
If I'm late don't wait
Go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles
I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles
I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles
the devil’s in delusion, drunk off God’s mighty illusion
It's "I mean to know", not "I need to know"
amen
All in the game, cuz. All in the game.
The wire🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
"All in the game, yo... All in the game"
YO LISTEN HEAR BEY. YOU COME AT THE KING, YOU BEST NOT MISS!!!
And a year later, Ralph was once again the person that brought al of us here.
Some people just step out of line too many times.
One more for the LIVE audience! ;)
All in the game yo
The Wire, Best Series of Criminal !
How did they go from this to whatever the hell that thing is on the season 2 intros
Ahh yes, perfect.
Here from Killstream
timeless...
Greatest fucking end montage in the history of the Universe.
I ask the devil if he's a liar and he said, "nope." then I asked God if he was telling the truth, and He said, "nope. "
"It's all in the game"
All in the game
Killstream brought me here. Great song
The wire started all this, still trying to get people to watch it
Omar is coming yo!!!
If I'm late, don't wait, go on without me.
I may tear it a while.
Cause I mean to know before I go,
How come the Devil smiles.
Real fuckin deep. Think about it.

Chain of command
What scene does this song play in the The Wire? FUCK i'm dying to figure it out, sounds so familiar
It plays during the ending scenes of the first season.
Ending montage of season 1 - last scene of the season
A movie named "The Wire" brought me here.
DADDY
NOOOOO
Yo, Omar comin
For 13 years since watching season 1 of The Wire I thought Jesse Winchester was black! 😂
You should probably mention "If I'm late don't wait" somewhere in the description, so people can find it easier :)
