Le grand Leadbelly aura passé beaucoup d’années derrière les barreaux. Il y reçut lui aussi, et souvent, la visite d’Alan Lomax et de son enregistreur portatif. C’est depuis sa geôle que le stentor a enregistré d’une voix douce, inhabituelle, cette vieille chanson de paysan assoiffé.
Baroco est un air nouveau nourri d’influences anciennes, un anachronisme musical, un mirage dans le désert, une créature imaginaire.
lyrics
Bring a little water Silvy,
Bring a little water now,
Bring a little water Silvy,
Every little once in a while.
Don’t you see me coming,
Don’t you see me now,
Don’t you see me coming,
Every little once in a while.
