DIE MIDWESTERN (LYRICS)
There’s nothing left to say
and nothing to do
This house is lonely
Now I’m here without you
So I sit and I wait for the sun
The streets are crowded
And the lights are so bright
Another Cincinnati Saturday night
And I hate what that has become
And I’ve been thinking that I should go
Cause if I don’t leave now then I’m never gonna leave Ohio
Lord
And that’s a chance that I just can’t take
Now that I’m getting older
I thought that we would set the city on fire
But if we stick around we’ll surely expire
As our dreams slip right through our hands
Lately, I’ve been learning more about love
From a precious heart that cares about us
I think she belongs where I stand
And I’ve been thinking that I should go
Cause if I don’t leave now then I’m never gonna leave Ohio
Lord
And that’s a chance that I just can’t take
Now that I’m getting older
And I’ve been thinking that we should go
Cause if we don’t leave now then we’re never gonna leave Ohio
Lord
And that’s a chance that we just can’t take
Now we’re all getting older
An Ohio singer/songwriter with a soulful, rootsy blend of country, rock, and folk, Arlo McKinley debuted in 2014 with his self-titled album. In 2020, he came to wider public attention with Die Midwestern, released on the late John Prine's Oh Boy label. Two years later, he issued This Mess We're In.
Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, McKinley first began singing at age eight in the choir at his family's Baptist church. Growing up, he imbibed his Kentucky-born father's LPs, listening to artists like Hank Williams and George Jones, as well as Bob Dylan, Otis Redding, and Van Morrison. By his teens, he was playing guitar and singing in punk bands. However, in his twenties he began writing his own songs, gravitating toward rootsy country and soul sounds, mixing it with his varied rock influences. A troubled period involving drugs waylaid his career and found him moving away from music. For several years, he drove a truck delivering tuxedos between Cincinnati and Detroit. He eventually returned to songwriting and in 2014 released his debut album, Arlo McKinley & the Lonesome Sound. Hitting the road, he gained wider attention touring alongside roots luminaries like Tyler Childers, John Moreland, Jason Isbell, and Justin Townes Earle. In March 2020, he became the final artist signed by legendary singer/songwriter John Prine's Oh Boy Records label just before Prine's death that April. In August 2020, McKinley released his sophomore album and Oh Boy debut, Die Midwestern, recorded at Sam Phillips Recording Studio with Grammy-winning producer Matt Ross-Spang. 2022 saw the release of McKinley's third long-player, the inward-looking This Mess We're In.
