Mandolin string fund (Paypal):

Well I left my home younger than my family woulda wanted,
And not 'cause I was angry no or nothing,
It was 'cause all I could see was monotony and the highway knew my name,
And she was calling.

Well there's a freight-liner coming to steal away my mind,
And take me to whatever comfort, I may find,
Well there's a freight-liner coming to steal away my mind,
And take me to whatever comfort, I may find,

My mother said to me, as I turned to leave, what demons bereave you so?
Go if you must go, I'll love you more than you know,
But come back one day and please stay or don't come back at all.

She said marauder, marauder, don't you be like your father,
Marauder, marauder, please be a better man,
Marauder, marauder, Don't you leave no tracks to hide,
Marauder, marauder, don't you lead a life of crime.

Well a kind man took me to his farm, gave me a place to sleep,
And his daughter had eyes for me I was thinking I may keep,
Well the night had come, the moon was young and shee was warm beside me,
I went to the house to fetch my gun but her father saw right through me,

He said marauder, marauder, stay away from my daughter,
Marauder, marauder, don't you take her from my land,
Marauder, marauder stay away from my daughter,
Don't you take her from me even though I know you can.

So I left alone in a violent storm, walked towards a line of steel,
Drank so much shine I should be blind, but I guess the devel and I had a deal,
'Cause I woke up cold but not quite dead, with the demons of hell thrashing 'round in my head,
And as I looked to see what had become of me I met the boot of an RCMP.

He said Marauder, marauder, Don't you even bother,
Marauder, marauder, you ain't welcome in this town,
Marauder, marauder, we've had up to hear with your kind,
Marauder, marauder, there's only a grave for you here to find.

Well where, where oh where is the big rock candy mountain?
All I seem to find is a bridge and a bottle of gin,
Some pretty girl to turn up my chin and a mind that won't stop wandererin',
Yeah a mind that just won't stop wanderin'.
So light 'em up and smash 'em down, let's get fucked up and leave this town,
Grab your dog, grab your backpack I'll meet you southside of the main track.
Marauders, marauders, Ride on, keep moving, my sisters and brothers, marauders, marauders.
So light 'em up and smash 'em down, let's get fucked up and leave this town,
Grab your dog, grab your backpack I'll meet you southside of the main track.

I’m listening to Jesse yet again, on a hot Friday night night in Queensland Australia in 2025, May his music continue to bring us joy

Seeing this girl at the start gaze and smile as he plays, surmises how we all feel when he sings 🙏 xx

[brodybicksler]

When he’s picking those strings, there’re ain’t shit that matters man. You’re the man Jesse! Please never quit pickin and singin!

[Smithytits]

Got recommended this from cold beer. Wow late to the party, what a talent what a soul. Genius rip young man you made a massive impact on this planet while you were with us. More than most people will ever in their lifetime ❤

[robertdecker]

i once was super depressed while i was using heroin, so i loaded a fat shot so that i could end it all. i listened to this song as my goodbye song. by the end I was so inspired i changed my mind. today today im healthy and happy. thanks Jesse, I love you more than you know.

[Handlingitjustfine]

I learned you had passed on my birthday. I am so thankful you graced us with your presence in this life. I thought about you a lot and you introduced me to a new genre of music and people! May you rest in peace, Jesse.

[tnfanwayne]

This is my favorite version of this song. So raw and powerful. Rip

[bakenbeans]

This hit me right in the heart. I have done this exact thing. Lived this life. I have lived this exact scenario. Had a pretty girl who looked at me like that, while I played and sang, with a dog wandering around and friends gathered around listening. I played street shows, where crowds would gather. Traveled the west coast. Down along the coast through the SW and into Oklahoma. I shot heroin, meth, any drug I could get my hands on. Although I speak on the times with love, they were regrettable. I made a lot of bad choices, spent a lot of time in jail, witnessed a lot of violence, over-doses, and death. But I will never forget the feeling of camaraderie, all us Dirty Kids had. They felt like the only real family I ever had.

RIP Jesse

RIP to all passed DK's.

[davidmckibben]

I miss my dead friends. All this beauty and talent I've been able to experience has been nothing but blessings. The pain of addiction can break any spirit.

[JasonCoker-ko]

A woman. A dog. A friend... A smoke....some booze....singing by the it's fukin pure heaven....❤❤❤❤❤❤

[teddyshamia]

your lyrics are more valuable than all the mainstream music industry

[skmo]

Ya know, this song takes me back to my hitchhiking days. It's hard to explain how clearly Jesse's visceral sound and passion pouring through pulls up those memories.
I had always hoped to hear this live, but now this is all that is left. Take care, stranger.

[notryan]

I showed this song to my mom on my way to rehab for the second time. We where crossing the train tracks and she started crying. Jesse I love you man your soul will forever be cherished I hope your next life is less painful but just as fulfilling

[chris_carothers]

Rest easy, Jesse. I hope you find the peace you were searching for, my friend.

[Genericdruid]

You visited my house about 5 years ago and played these songs, I will always keep them alive
