Steve Earle(born January 17, 1955) is a singer-songwriterbest known for his countrymusic and rock 'n roll tinged " alt-country." He is also a published writer, a keen political activist (particularly in protesting against the death penalty in the U.S., as in his song "Ellis Unit One" from the movie Dead Man Walking), and has written and directed a play. Born in Hampton, Virginia, legend has it that a box of Texas dirt, sent by his grandfather, was brought into the delivery room, so that it could be said that the first soil Earle's feet ever touched was Texan. He moved around the U.S. with his parents, before dropping out of school in the 8th grade and heading to Houston, Texas, to explore a career in music. In 1975, he moved to Nashville and worked as a songwriter.

Goodbye’s All We’ve Got Left Lyrics
Steve Earle
I could tell it when I woke up this mornin
cause I can smell it when a heartaches comin
Not that Im in such a hurry to lose you
Id call you up but theres nothin that I can do
Talkin wont do any good anyway
cause goodbyes all weve got left to say
I dont think that itll get any better
So maybe you could just write me a letter
And I could open it up when Im stronger
Another ten or twelve years, maybe longer
Guess I just dont feel much like bad news today
Goodbyes all weve got left to say
Dont try to call me cause Im takin my phone out
cause if it rings, Ill know what its about
And dont you worry bout me cause Im alright
Maybe youll run into me somewhere, some night
And if you do just keep goin your way
Goodbyes all weve got left to say
