Paroles Caleb Meyer de Gillian Welch

Parole de Caleb Meyer lyrics

Caleb Meyer, he lived alone

In them hollarin' pines

And he made a little whiskey for himself

Said it helped to pass the time

Long one evening in back of my house,

Caleb came around

And he called my name 'til I came out

with no one else around

Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna

wear them rattlin' chains.

but when I go to sleep at night,

Don't you call my name

Where's your husband, Nellie Kane

Where's your darlin gone?

Did he go down off the mountain side

and leave you all alone?

Yes, my husband's gone to Bowlin' Green

to do some business there.

Then Caleb threw that bottle down

and grabbed me by my hair.

Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna

wear them rattlin' chains.

but when I go to sleep at night,

Don't you call my name

He threw me in the needle bed,

across my dress he lay

he held my hands above my head

and I commenced to pray.

I cried My God, I am your child

send your angels down

Then feelin' with my fingertips,

the bottle neck I found

I drew that glass across his neck

as fine as any blade,

and I felt his blood pour fast and hot

around me where I laid.

Caleb Meyer, your ghost is gonna

bonjour Gillian, te chansons me touchent profondément. Elles sont comme mousson triste et lumineuse, comme champ de blé noir et nourrissant. Merci pour cette beauté, merci pour ces infortunés, ces délaissés, ces crève coeur que tu chantes.
