Purveyor of the bakersfield sound, country singer-songwriter Dwight Yoakam grew up in Columbus, Ohio before heading west and finding a home two doors down in Bakersfield, CA. "Honky Tonk Man" and "Guitars and Cadillacs" are classic songs in their own right, but nearly every song Yoakam churns out stays true to his sound and finds popularity among modern country fans, despite the saturation of the pop-oriented contemporary Nashville sound. The most recent release, "Blame the Vain" continues in the routine of solid albums from Mr. Yoakam.

It Won’t Hurt Lyrics
Dwight Yoakam
(d. yoakam)
Chorus:
It wont hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it wont hurt when I stumble in the street
It wont hurt cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me
Today I had another bout with sorrow
You know this time I almost won
If this bottle would just hold out til tomorrow
I know that Id have sorrow on the run
Chorus:
It wont hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it wont hurt when I stumble in the street
It wont hurt cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me
Your memory comes back up with each sunrise
I reach out for the bottle and find its gone
Yeah, lord, somewhere every night the whiskey leave me
To face this cold, cold world on my own
Chorus:
It wont hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
And it wont hurt when I stumble in the street
It wont hurt cause this whiskey eases misery
But even whiskey cannot ease your hurting me
