Sweet and Groovy (Spider Woman)

Hey, ol' river, dry as a bone.
Hey, ol' river, not gonna get me home.

Up in the mountains, they've had forty days and nights of rain.
Down here, it's like a desert plain.
I've been panning here since 1853,
Ain't got me nothing but heartache and disease.

Hey, ol' river, get me outa here.
Hey, ol' river, I'll fill you with my tears.

I heard they're damming a hundred miles upstream.
Them mean critters gone and killed my dream.
The nets are empty and no hunting fare.
My ammo's gone on hungry wolves and bears.

Hey, ol' river, this lovely boat of mine.
Hey, ol' river, in the mud and slime.

Had three summers in the company of fleas,
The winters,  just about finished me.
Now the rivers gone left me high and dry,
Might as well just lay me down to die.

Hey, ol' river, sparkling in the sand,
Hey, ol' river, as big as my hand.

I've found my El Dorado, shining at me,
I crawl over, on my hands and knees.
I dig her out, barely hold her in my hands,
Hey, ol' river, I'm a wealthy man!

Hey, Ol' River

An out-of-time, visceral collection of songs & sounds from Bamako-based producer Paul Chandler’s unparalleled archive. These high fidelity field recordings take us deep inside the full sonic power of the Malian musical experience.

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
