Radio Flora TM More music, more variety
“Beggar’s Song” – single by Matt Maeson from the album Bank On The Funeral, released on April 5th, 2019.
“Beggar’s Song” is a medley of emotions with a catchy, powerful chorus that manages to somehow be self-deprecating and motivating at the same time. With a simple folksy melody as the foundation, the song builds up through modern production to elevate listener and singer alike. But the true star of this track is the songwriting. Geared toward the blue-collar, sitting-at-the-same-stool-at-the-local-bar-for-an-entire-evening listener, Matt perfectly captures the inner struggle of those of us still searching for inner peace.

Maeson was raised in Norfolk, Virginia. His parents were juvenile delinquents who later became “musicianaries”, eventually playing in Christian metal bands. He was banned from listening to secular rock music on the radio until he was a teenager. Maeson started playing the guitar when he was 15. He performed at biker rallies and prisons with his parents’ ministry. Maeson’s uncle, who was a part of the same ministry, was murdered. Maeson’s forearm tattoos “Born a sinner” and “Die a martyr” are inspired by his uncle’s legacy.
Lyrics:
Jesus, come talk to me
I am but a blind mess, I am wild and free
I know that I need us more than I need me
One more whiskey, I am wild and free
[Chorus 1]
Oh, but I’m a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I’ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Oh yeah, I’m a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I’ma be damned if I let it keep me down
[Verse 2]
Oh, my mother Mary, come walk with me
I am on four drugs, I am wild and free
I know that I failed less, the less I knew me
Wander through the darkness, and come walk with me
[Chorus 1]
Oh yeah I’m a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I’ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Yeah, yeah
Oh I’m a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I’ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
