Coulter wall first one sounds like a bit of Steve Earle influence to me,BTW i think Guitar Town is one of the best country albums ever and made the mainstream take notice and pull up their socks. I liked both of those.thx for sharing it.
i was thinking about sleeping on the blacktop...i think it's about being on tour, sleeping on the blacktop and the things he sees and thinks about...and waiting on his sense to catch up to him.
nickajacks are hillbillies from the Tenn./Ala. border, business man with a needle and a spoon doesn't seem to need any explanation.
two dead in an accident he saw, and it makes him wonder about good and evil, and if any of it is real...
maybe?

I never heard of him before you posted,I searched the lyrics and I think you're right it seems to be about touring and sleeping on the bus,all becoming one long day and different experiences and observations along the way,insignificance but vital .

Saw parts of this show last night on ACL Country on the Circle network. I saw CDB a ton when I was a kid and had forgot they had two drummers.
