Jon Randall - The Road

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Wheels on the bus go round and round
Takin’ us off to another town
Yeah the diesel in my lungs
Startin’ to smell like home
People in the passin’ cars
Lookin’ through the window wondering’ who we are
“Hey Look at that honey, it’s probably somebody famous”

{Chorus}
So come on light one up, let’s dim the lights
Tell the same old stories over one more glass of wine
Keep on rollin’ down that endless highway white line
Yeah, call it a night, I’ll see you in the morning in Boulder

{Verse 2}
Wake up to the smell of coffee, brewin’ strong
Thе generator hummin’ my favorite song
Man I’m going back to my bunk, just wakе me up at load in
Then it’s cigarettes out behind The Fox
Downbeat and give it all you got
Shake some hands, say goodbye, call your wife (better call your wife)

{Chorus}
So come on light one up, let’s dim the lights
Tell the same old stories over one more glass of wine
Keep on rollin’ down that endless highway white line
Yeah, call it a night, see you in the morning in Dallas

{Verse 3}
An old mistake I made in Telluride
Is waiting out front, just wants to say hi
Man, tell her I lost my voice and tell her I’m sorry
Cause those highway miles can sure catch up
When your whiskey lonely and things at home suck
Let’s just load this damn bus and get the show on the road

{Chorus}
And I’m singing, come on light one up, let’s dim the lights
Tell the same old stories over one more glass of wine
Keep on rollin’ down that endless highway white line
We’ll call it a night, see you wherever we’re goin’

{Outro}
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Takin’ us off to another town
Yeah the diesel in my lungs
Is starting to smell like home

Biography

GRAMMY Award-winning producer, songwriter and musician, Jon Randall is set to release new music throughout 2021, with the first single of the year being “Keep On Moving.” This will be his first artist release in over 15 years, after years of touring and a slew of songwriting cuts, producer credits, and multiple award nominations including 4 GRAMMY, 5 ACM, and 6 CMA nominations.

With songwriting being at the core, Jon Randall is consistently writing and has had cuts with many artists ranging from Guy Clark to Marren Morris to Blake Shelton. “Tin Man,” which was co-written with Miranda Lambert and Jack Ingram, won the 2018 ACM Song Of The Year Award, and was also nominated for the 2017 CMA Song Of The Year and 2018 GRAMMY for Best Country Song. He was also awarded the 2005 CMA Song Of The Year Award for “Whiskey Lullaby” released by Brad Paisley & Alison Krauss. His success as a songwriter has been rightly acknowledged many times, having also been awarded IBMA, Music City News, NSAI, and BMI awards for various recordings including three number one records on the Billboard Country Music Chart and five songs in the Billboard Country Top Forty. His extensive list of cuts also includes Reba McEntire, Emmylou Harris, Maren Morris, Dierks Bentley, Kenny Chesney, Kip Moore, Brad Paisley, Scotty McCreery,Guy Clark, Little Big Town, Gary Allen and Travis Denning.

Randall’s well rounded experience as a musician and songwriter, led him to becoming an acclaimed producer. He produced Dierks Bentley’s Up On The Ridge and The Mountain, the first being nominated for a GRAMMY Award for Best Country Album, and both earning him ACM and CMA Album Of The Year nominations. Randall’s production on The Mountain’s “Burning Man ft. Brothers Osborne” also earned him the 2019 ACM Award for Music Event Of The Year. Other artists he has produced include: Dwight Yoakam (Swimmin’ Pools, Movie Stars…), Jack Ingram (Ridin’ High….Again, Midnight Motel), Pat Green (Home), Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (Speed Of Life), Jessi Alexander (Decatur County Red), and most recently Parker McCollum (Hollywood Gold), with the lead single Pretty Heart achieving platinum certification.

While it won’t come as a surprise, Randall’s impressive career started with equally impressive beginnings, as a guitarist for Emmylou Harris’ Nash Ramblers with whom he won his first GRAMMY for their Live at the Ryman album. As a skilled multi-instrumentalist and exceptional vocalist, Randall has toured and recorded with countless household names including Lyle Lovett, J2B2, The Sam Bush Band, Vince Gill, Earl Scruggs Family and Friends, Patty Loveless and Dierks Bentley. He has also had on-stage appearances with the likes of Sheryl Crow, Widespread Panic, and more.

Between 1995 and 2005 Randall released four solo albums, What You Don’t Know, Cold Coffee Morning, Willin’ and Walking Among the Living. These albums were met with critical acclaim, and appreciated by americana, country and bluegrass fans alike. Randall wrote or co-wrote all but one song on Walking Among the Living, including the title track, which he penned with his wife, Jessi Alexander.

Jon Randall is also a member of 18 South, a culmination of acclaimed songwriters and Nashville’s best session musicians collaborating to create Soulful Southern roots music. Along with Randall, the band consists of Jessi Alexander, Jimmy Wallace, Mike Bub, Larry Atamanuik and Guthrie Trapp.

A force to be reckoned with, Jon Randall continues to write, record, perform, and produce, as well as contributing to the industry, most recently serving as Governor and President on the board of the Nashville Recording Academy. Randall has been nominated for four CMA awards, five ACM awards, and four GRAMMY awards. He and his wife, Jessi, have three children and are based outside of Nashville, TN. Having strong connections with his Texan roots, Randall splits his time between Tennessee and Texas when he’s not touring or in the studio.
