Harry Belafonte - Sylvie lyrics

rate me

Sylvie

Sylvie

I´m so hot´n dry

Sylvie

Sylvie

Can´t you hear,

Can´t you hear me crying?

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Bring me little water out

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Every little once in a while

Sylvie says she loves me

But I believe she lies

She hasn´t been to see me

Since the last day in july

Sylvie

Sylvie

I´m so hot´n dry

Sylvie

Sylvie

Can´t you hear

Can´t you hear me crying

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Bring me little water out

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Every little once in a while

She brought me a little coffee

She brought me a little tea

Well, she brought me nearly every damned thing

But she didn´t bring the jailhouse key

Sylvie

Sylvie

I´m so hot´n dry

Sylvie

Sylvie

Little drink of water

Wouldn´t statisfy me

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Bring me little water out

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Every little once in a while

Took a look ayonder

What is that I see?

Well I thought it was little Sylvie

Hopprunning there for me

Sylvie

Sylvie

I´m so hot and dry

Sylvie

Sylvie

Can´t you hear

Can´t you hear me crying?

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Bring me little water out

Bring me little water, Sylvie

Every little once in a while

Every little once in a while

Every

little once

in a while

Sylvie

Sylvie
