Reading over the lyrics for Caledonia, I noticed a question mark...maybe I
can help. I think that DL is singing "Waiting by the river Grand". This would
make sense because Caledonia, Ontario (a small town just outside of Hamilton,
and therefore part of DL's local geography while growing up) is nestled on
the Grand River.
Thanks for the lyrics...I think it is a great idea. I miss them as part of
the liner notes.

Can any memeber of our community see if they can find a copy of 'For
the Beauty of Wynonna' that doesn't have that offensive 'AMERICAN
EDITION' banner? on CD... I'd be willing to pay S&H and even kick down
a couple of bucks?!?!?
Let me know... Thanks

Hey Kenley - here's the next three lyrics for the list - Thanks!
***Jolie Louise
Ma jolie, how do you do?
Mon nom est Jean-Guy Thibault-Leroux
I come from east of Gatineau
My name is Jean-Guy, ma jolie
J'ai une maison a Lafontaine
where we can live, if you marry me
Une belle maison a Lafontaine
where we will live, you and me
Oh Louise, ma jolie Louise
Tous les matins au soleil
I will work till work is done
Tous les matins au soleil
I did work till work was done
And one day, the foreman said
Jean-Guy, we must let you go
Et puis mon nom i'est pas bon
Have a mill, anymore
Oh Louise, I'm losing my head, I'm losing my head
My kids are small, 4 and 3
et la bouteille, she's mon ami
I drink the rum till I can't see
It hides the shame Louise does not see
Carousel turns in my head,
and I can't hide, oh no, no, no, no
And the rage turned in my head
and Louise, I struck her down,
down on the ground
I'm losing my mind I'm losing my mind
En Septembre '63
kids are gone, and so is Louise.
Ontario, they did go
near la ville de Toronto
Now my tears, they roll down,
tous les jours
And I remember the days,
and the promises that we made
Oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise.
***Fisherman's Daughter
[Spoken Poem]
I laid awake a whole night long,
waiting for the sun to beat down on my head
in this broken bed
I laid awake and dreamt of ships
passing through night,
searching for shelter,
stopping at no harbor
I heard the screaming waters
call sixty sailors' names
Raging words, pounding on the sail
like an angry whale
I felt the iron rudder skip
the smell of seeping oil,
the heat of slipping rope.
Failing hands, failing hope
Every sailor asks...
asks the question about the cargo
he is carrying
God's anger broke through the clouds
and He spilt the cargo for all to see
The fault of the sailor,
the fault of he who asks no questions
about the cargo he is carrying
Fishes and tales and a fisherman's daughter
walks in the rain, she walks to the water
to the sea...
***Under the Stormy Sky
He Bebette, danse avec moi
^^^^^^^^(Danny, himself, in the album says that Bette was a surname for
his mother, so I use Bebette...even though it sounds like bebe)
ce soir on fais dodo
danse avec moi, Bebette, oui
under the stormy sky
Papa, i'a vendu la terre,
la terre et la vache
danse avec moi, Bebette, oui
under the stormy sky
Jean-Paul, il joue le violon
la belle l'accordeon
danse avec moi, Bebette
on this stormy night
I hear the whipporwill cry
I see the blue heron fly over
Sugar Hill, snowy white
big blue siren in the night
Come with me Bebette, we go
under a stormy sky
I hear the (???)
the diesel turning,
calling you and me
to the city of steel,
smokestack - spinning wheel
come with me Bebette, oui
under the stormy sky
My heart is sad
to leave Sugar town,
goodbye Sugar Hill
on this stormy night
He Bebette, danse avec moi
ce soir on fais dodo
danse avec moi, Bebette, oui
under the stormy sky
under the stormy sky
under the stormy sky

"Emmylou Harris' version of "Goodbye" is being released as a single. The
single is a different mix than the album version. I always thought her
version should be a hit. Once in a while, a real quality song will hit
it big on the radio. Let's hope this is it!
I heard about this on the Emmylou Mailing List. Also mentioned on that
list is that the 2 CD set "Ain't Ever Satisfied: The Steve Earle
Collection" is scheduled to be released July 30 on MCA.
To join the Emmylou list send e-mail to: Cimarron@aol.com"
THIS WAS TAKEN FROM: khawkey@sirinet.net
I, Shu-Shu, have nothing more to say today.
