Stranded out in the night Eliza took me down To see the widow give Rain to the town It's against the law To be a tonic man But the widow knows She's got the upper hand So I went on in Feelin' kinda wheezy You know she soothed my mind, boys She rocked me kinda slow and easy All day and all night Pick a card before you go It's a long trip to Mexico Eliza wait by the door I can't stay here anymore, no, no Then she took a pill She washed her feet in the mud She said "Look out son You know, I just ordered a flood For forty days and forty nights" Then I dropped my shoes Eliza called my name She said it looked to her Like it's gonna rain Then the cotton king Came in chokin' And the widow laughed and said "I ain't jokin' Take once for all" She said "Now don't ya tease me I just fell in love, boy So rock me kinda slow and kinda easy All day and all night." Sweet William said With a drunken head "If I had a boat I'd help y'all float" Eliza stood there watching William in a trance As the widow did the St. Vitus dance But just then an old man With a boat named "Breezy" Said "You can ride with Clyde, boys If you rock it kinda slow and easy All day and all night
Это интересно:The Band на протяжении шести лет (с 1968 по 1975) были одной из наиболее популярных и влиятельных рок-групп, чья музыка рассматривалась столь же серьезно, как творения "Rolling stones" и "Beatles". А началось все в 1958-м, когда рок-н-ролльщик из Арканзаса Ронни Хокинс стал набирать себе сопровождающий состав. Одним из первых его соратников стал барабанщик Левон Хелм (р. 26 мая 1942). "Ronnie Hawkins & the Hawks"... продолжение
