The Steel Woods

The Steel Woods are an American country music group from Nashville, Tennessee exploring a variety of genres - stringing together lyrically strong songs, a big sound and well-put together harmonies, they have created a new sound that is being dubbed "Smart Southern Rock." A quartet of Southern rock traditionalists from Nashville, The Steel Woods lay claim to the sound pioneered by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Like Skynyrd, The Steel Woods balance heavy blues-rock with Southern poetry, and they add a bit of plainspoken outlaw country to the mix, as evidenced on their 2017 debut, Straw in the Wind.Though their style is unapologetically Southern Rock and Rock, just pull back the layers to find lyrics that feature passionate storytelling and messages that resonate.

Darkness had us covered 
When we split from Oklahoma in the morning
In the rain

Black as I was feeling 
And the road was slick and shiny like a snake
Each of us was humming to a half forgotten echo 
Hangin' over in the brain

Tappin' time and thinking of the time we never had the time to take
Losing to the rising cost of living high and loving hard 
And leavin' every yesterday behind

Learning every bridge you cross 
Is burning down before you're off and 
Running like the devil just in time
 
Breakin' any ties before they bind you
Taking any comfort you can find
Running like you're running out of time
Take it all, till it's over-understanding
When you're headed for the border lord
You're bound to cross the line
 
Good lookin' women every time you stumble
Waitin' there to catch you when you fall
Getting to you bad enough to let em 
Get you backin' up
Just before your back's against the wall
 
Breakin' any ties before they bind you
Takin' any comfort you can find
Runnin' like you're runnin' out of time
Take it all, till it's over-understanding
When you're headed for the border lord
You're bound to cross the line
 
Breakin' any ties before they bind you
Takin' any comfort you can find
Runnin' like you're running out of time
Cause when you're headed for the border lord
You're bound to cross the line
