Lyrics: I hear way down in New Orleans They heal suffering Take away disease It will all evaporate from your soul I haven't seen it But I've been told Put all that sorrow in a tune Hum it softly And call it blue Clap your hands and raise your head Bring your spirit down To St. James' Bed Oh my sweet friend We're all going Down to the river's end And wash our dirty hands clean In the songs of our lonely Ghosts' release All those street lights that burn so bright Will watch over us And keep us through the night And place your heart over hand It's our gospel And you're my hymn Going to feel that fire Going to feel that fire inside Let it burn us up Burn us white Oh my sweet friend Ain't you coming Down to the river's end And wash ourselves so clean In the memories we find In those streets Oh my sweet friend Ain't you coming Down to the river's end
This is fantastic
Wow man, what a refreshing old soul sound! Thank you man, thank you!
Just found this song, it's haunting.
Love this song
Lyrics:
I hear way down in New Orleans
They heal suffering
Take away disease
It will all evaporate from your soul
I haven't seen it
But I've been told
Put all that sorrow in a tune
Hum it softly
And call it blue
Clap your hands and raise your head
Bring your spirit down
To St. James' Bed
Oh my sweet friend
We're all going
Down to the river's end
And wash our dirty hands clean
In the songs of our lonely
Ghosts' release
All those street lights that burn so bright
Will watch over us
And keep us through the night
And place your heart over hand
It's our gospel
And you're my hymn
Going to feel that fire
Going to feel that fire inside
Let it burn us up
Burn us white
Oh my sweet friend
Ain't you coming
Down to the river's end
And wash ourselves so clean
In the memories we find
In those streets
Oh my sweet friend
Ain't you coming
Down to the river's end
Brilliant. What a talented guy.
Great video Zack, good tune by Bones, but then again arent they all?
I wish he would come to Canada.
Wow!
