Charlie Cope's new single explores unchartered territory with a new area of Americana music. Being the first to ever do this, Charlie mixes soul, funk, and classic R&B music with influences like James Brown, The Temptations, and The Isley Brothers all the while never loosing his iconic roots/Americana sound that he has become known for. This new bittersweet song is about being away from home and missing loved ones, this song comes out just in time for his 2021 Americana And Whatever's Left Tour. As Charlie is playing from city to city you can listen to the song as he lives it!

Lyrics

Hotel violations and trials and tribulations
And every little small thing I wish I could do with you
Waiting on your facetime call but there ain't really no time at all
I've got to get up and gone in a few

The road sure is a lonely place and my wheels keep on spinning
Out on the interstate
All I see is your face in the clouds and they are thinning
And I'm driving the other way

Don't get me wrong I'm thankful for what I do
But why does it got to keep me away from you
Sing your songs all night long but
I've got to keep on keeping on
Look what I'm Putting Myself Through

I say take a sad song and make it better
Because I'm coming home soon
A few more bloodshot eyes and stages and all too familiar changes
Then on to Dallas and that means I'm one day closer to you

Don't get me wrong I'm thankful for what I do
But why does it got to keep me away from you
Sing your songs all night long but I got to keep on keeping on
Oh look what I'm Putting Myself Through
Oh oh look what I'm Putting Myself Through
