Dean Brody - People Know You By Your First Name

Great song ❤

American country music way better though. No offense Canada lol. This ain’t bad, but southern American country hits home more!

I heard him write a bad song once. OK that is rumour. Dean Brody - Canada's Gold Standard

I love this song

its called heres where i stopped

Can't think of a better place to call home. Thanks

This is my other favorite song from Dean Brody

It's a town just outside of nowhere
With a general store and one lamp pole
We got wheat fields saw mills and coal mines
Down home country folks
Raised on four eighteen dance hall auctions
Spaghetti dinners and parking lot fights
How it might be a little backwards
But 'round here it's alright

The people know you by your first name
And what kind of truck you drive
How you teamed did back in high school
So you can't lie

Better watch out who you take home
'Cause 'round here it's a fact of life
Yeah people know you by your first name
What you did last night

So come on down to our fund raiser dinner
It'll be a high school reunion I swear
Another family fallen on hard times
So there won't be an empty chair
Listen close and you'll hear local legend

[Incomprehensible]
And you thought you were alone
Skinny dipping the springs last night
But word here travels fast

The people know you by your first name
And what kind of truck you drive
How you teamed it back in high school
So you can't lie
Better watch out who you take home
'Cause 'round here it's a fact of life
Yeah people know you by your first name
What you did last night
Here we go

People know you by your first name
And what kind of truck you drive
How you teamed did back in high school
So you can't lie
Better watch out who you take home
'Cause 'round here it's a fact of life
Yeah people know you by your first name
What you did last night
Yeah people know you by your first name
What you did last night hey hey

Love love Dean Brody.....

Call the boss for tonight’s events schedule please nite nite

What did I do last night? 😜

The only people who called me by my last name was in placement so being called by my first name it just means they are casual

beautiful cattle dog btw! I used to have one. blue tick hound now

A true Coby song! TY Dean! City people just don't get it!

I was born in Toronto.

Coboconk Ontario Canada! Love The Trail Of Life Dean! I was adopted too! I cried!

Real country music

I met him at the CCMA's when the were held in BC hosted by Jason Prestly

And there's the blue heeler again

Awesome

J'aime bien ce chanteur de Country

Awesome song but you should have a Ford truck in the video Ford trucks rule

My favorite part of the video is where Dean sings "What you did last night" and the obligatory hot country girl holds up the sign "It wasn't me".

SEEN HIM LIVE LAST WEEK IN SAINT JOHN <3 AMAZING. BEST SHOW IVE EVER ATTENDED!! LOVE YOU Dean!

just saw him live last night in ottawa amazing

Just like good old drumbo

This song is my home town to a tee. There are only 150 people and you can tell what car or truck goes up the road and you don't enen have to see it. Great tune. Cheers

When the door closes 
And everyone walks away
There will be a song that echoes
And a feeling that just won't fade.

wait one minute... I recognize Ventura, CA (where I used to live). Please tell me I didn't miss a chance at seeing a show or something?

Awesome how this song is based out pf Jaffary, BC (where Dean grew up) and I live only an hour from Jaffary. And everything in this song is true. We have coal mines, we live in the middle of nowhere, and everyone knows eachother by the kind of truck you drive. 

Country has the best party tunes. :)

There are some here i like with the obvious exception of the J--don't wanna say it, in fact I don't like both Justins. Lady Gaga is cool, don't know Derulo, T-pain, who cares, and T Swift is not very country, Kesha has only one good song, and Pitbull, please grow hair. I would spread the word without YOUR exaggeration and the Justin part

It's too bad the video wasn't shot in his home town.

Awesome performance at CMC Rocks the Hunter!

this is so my town! i live in a small town in albera with a pop. of 300 and and everyone knows you by your first name around here

heck ya country is the best

you just named the worst Hip Hop artists in history

But you can have variation of music choice. Justin Moore is my favourite male singer of all time, and Country Music is my favourite genre of all time. It's also hard for me to get ahold of, since I live in England and Country mostly never makes the charts. But I have to say, I also like Lady GaGa and Justin Bieber, and Justin Timberlake, 2Pac etc... Country is definately the best type of music going. But it's OK to like other genres too.

Love it!! My home town for sure!!

Too bad. We want him just as bad here in Canada. Saw him Live and will go any day.

This man does write most of his own songs but the fact is that just because a person is not able to articulate the story of their lives into words for songs they find people who write songs they can relate to and it makes them no less relevant not writing their own songs than someone who does. It is just a nice bonus to be able to write your own songs. A great voice helps sell a song and many writers would be without a job without singers to perform their songs.

Amen!!!

was it the it wasnt me or the pizza sign ? LOL
