Still Water (04:29)

Il tuo voto:

Oh, Oh Deep water
Black, and cold like the night
I've stand with arms wide open
I've run a twisted line
I'm a stranger
in the eyes of the maker

I could not see
For the fog in my eyes
I could not feel
for the fear in my life
From across the great divide
In the distance I saw a light
Jean Baptiste
Walking to me with the maker

My body is bent and broken
By long and dangerous sleep
I can't work the Fields of Abraham
And turn my head away
I'm not a stranger
In the hands of the maker

Brother John
Have you seen the homeless daughters
Standing there
With broken wings
I have seen the flaming swords
There over east of Eden
Burning in the eyes of the maker
Burning in the eyes of the maker
Burning in the eyes of the maker
Burning in the eyes of the maker

Oh river rise from your sleep....

Ma jolie how do you do
Mon nom est Jean Guy Thibault Leroux
I come from east of Gatineau
My name is Jean Guy ma jolie
J'ai une maison à la fontaine
Where we can live, if you marry me
Une belle maison à la fontaine
Where we will live you and me

Oh Louise oh oh oh oh oh
Ma jolie Louise

Tous les matins au soleil
I will work till work is done
Tous les matins au soleil
I did work till work was done
And one day the foreman, said Jean Guy
We must let you go
Et puis mon nom, est pas bon
At the mill anymore

Oh Louise
I'm losing my head, I'm losing my head

My kids are small, four and three
Et la bouteille she's mon amie
I drink the rhum till I can't see
It hides the shame Louise does not see
A carousel turns in my head
And I can't hide, oh no no no no
And the rage turned in my head
And Louise, I struck her down
Down on the ground
I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my mind

En septembre soixante-trois
Kids are gone and so is Louise
Ontario they did go
Near la ville de Toronto
Now my tears they roll down
Tous les jours, uh uh uh uh
And I remenber the days
And the promises that we made

Oh Louise
Ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
