Love this original by Samantha ! Haunting and powerful. I performed it last week for an Earth Day party / benny, only I do it in "F" and replace 'crocodiles' with 'alligAtahs'. Reminds me of the groove of a song I did years ago with Hubie Sumlin, but I can't remember the title of the song. ( Hubie sang it, so was kind of hard to understand the lyric. Probably is a variation of an obscure Howlin' Wolf rendition ).
one of the few comments about the song itself and not about the commentator, tator, er- commentor, I dunno- I just love the song and am a Fish appreciator, and just what you said, yeah... damn good, jus as it is, that's all it needs to be! Thank you Elke for not pluggin' yer self or knockin' the track for a comp... shows class. Be well love... RaVen
They chew you up and spit you out Those crocodiles won't touch you now Gonna burn it up till the morning light That muddy water-er never treat you right I said ooo-oo-ooo down in the swamp I said ooo-oo-ooo-oa down in the swamp baby Won't hear you scream won't hear you moan Just remember you're not alone A thousand eyes fixed dead on you Waiting for you now to make your move I said ooo-oo-ooo down in the swamp I said ooo-oo-ooo-oa down in the swamp baby (Ho) Can you hear them slither, can you hear them crawl Can't see nothing I see nothing at all You're in black water and full of fear This beer is what I'll remember as tears I said ooo-oo-ooo baby on down in the swamp Oh now Oh-oh-oh I said now babe oh down in the swamp Oooh yeah oo baby ya no no no no oh down in the swamp I said ooo-oo-ooo-oa on down in the swamp
It is taste, yes. But I don't like the vocals to be drowned. The new bigger band seems to do that, sometimes. She has a wonderfully expressive voice, but not the most powerful.

They chew you up and spit you out
Those crocodiles won't touch you now
Gonna burn it up till the morning light
That muddy water-er never treat you right
I said ooo-oo-ooo down in the swamp
I said ooo-oo-ooo-oa down in the swamp baby
Won't hear you scream won't hear you moan
Just remember you're not alone
A thousand eyes fixed dead on you
Waiting for you now to make your move
I said ooo-oo-ooo down in the swamp
I said ooo-oo-ooo-oa down in the swamp baby
(Ho)
Can you hear them slither, can you hear them crawl
Can't see nothing I see nothing at all
You're in black water and full of fear
This beer is what I'll remember as tears
I said ooo-oo-ooo baby on down in the swamp
Oh now Oh-oh-oh I said now babe oh down in the swamp
Oooh yeah oo baby ya no no no no oh down in the swamp
I said ooo-oo-ooo-oa on down in the swamp
LUNGA VITA AL BLUES
Muy buen disco mucho mejor q el último q ha sacado q m.parrce un poco mediocre con ritmos poperos y de rap
should have kept this studio recording to just one guitar, bass and drums. 2 guitars is never needed in the blues.
2 guitars in blues is fine, the origins of blues aka Delta Blues has a lot of double guitar 12 bar blues build ups. its all just taste my man
It is taste, yes. But I don't like the vocals to be drowned. The new bigger band seems to do that, sometimes. She has a wonderfully expressive voice, but not the most powerful.
Too busy. Live versions are better. Way too crowded w/ 2 guitars, or over dubs.
All of her live versions are better, lol! This is an awesome studio recording, however.
You have two ears, use em pal.
They chew you up and spit you out
