AAA

Llevaba varios días queriendo abrir un hilo de esta mujer y por fin encuentro un momento.

Su último disco es maravilloso. También os recomiendo los dos anteriores: Down Fell the Doves de 2013 y Carrying Lightning de 2011.

Si os gustan esos tres podéis seguir con sus tres primeros discos: Sew Your Heart with Wires de 2009, West Cross Timbers también de 2009 y su debut Being Brave de 2005.

Del disco Down Fell the Doves de 2013.

Una de las mejores canciones de su último disco.


MINERAL WELLS

In '81 I was just a drink on the shelf, a daiquiri
Not even a thought 'til sometime in July
Sometime in July
And something happened in '84
I ended up with two places to be from
The only tree with leaves in Lubbock
With roots in mineral wells
Mineral wells

At night I dream I'm in the Brazos River
Pines and cypress, the west cross timbers
And oh, I know it shows
I'm another one still thirsting for my home

There's a spot under the train track trestles
The water's too deep to stand in
And you were there once
We climb the sandstone and jump in
Hold your breath and jump in
We take the airboat to way upstream
The heat's tiring and I fall asleep in my folding chair
I dreamed dad was smoking cigarettes
He always had one hanging from his lips

At night I dream I'm in the Brazos River
Pines and cypress, the west cross timbers
And oh, I know it shows
I'm another one still thirsting for my

I've tried drinking water from the Gibson well
Folks before me say it cures what ails you
I think it might be true that there's something in the well
In mineral wells

And at night I dream I'm in the Brazos River
Pines and cypress, the west cross timbers
And oh, I know it shows
I'm another one still thirsting for my home

SLIPPIN'

There'll be a trigger, then up starts the fire
A handful of matches, some faulty wiring
You say you have this hollow feeling
Something's always been missing

Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away from me

Scanning the room, she'll catch you off guard
The curve of her shoulder, the length of the bar
The length of the bar, you'll forget who you are

Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away from me

You'll start driving south, stopping somewhere in Mississippi
You think nobody sees you and no one is looking
And when no one is looking, no one is looking

Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away from me
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away
Tonight could be the night you go slipping away from me
