Kate Kelly - The whitlams

Fri Jan 16, 2009, 4:54 PM
  • Mood: Excited
  • Listening to: kate kelly - the whitlams
  • Reading: drigulch
  • Eating: Epyphany cake
  • Drinking: water
Beautiful song of the whitlams, about Kate Kelly, sister of the Australian hero (?) (well I believe so) Ned Kelly.
I'm not sure she really finished rodeo girl, but anyhow...

I really love the CD version, but could only find a live on Y*utube

So you just keep on drinking
and you try to forget
How they strung up Joe Byrne
to the jailhouse door
Like a marionette

He was dead for two days
and I'll tell you no lies
With the press still around him
making their money
Shooting postcards of him through the flies

Close your eyes Kate
and I'll sing you to sleep
Close your eyes, your dreams will be sweet
Kate Kelly, Kate Kelly
I'm gonna sing you to sleep

Ned rose up through the mist
man made of iron
Fighting his way to the smouldering inn
Where Joe and his brother were dying

They had to shoot out his legs Kate
and if you could sleep
You could forget that they cut off his head
For the warden's paperweight

Close your eyes Kate
and I'll sing you to sleep
Close your eyes
your dreams will be sweet
Don't linger around here
may your soul rest in peace
Kate Kelly, Kate Kelly
I'm gonna sing you to sleep

Now you do horse tricks
in a wild west show
Sharp-shooting Kate
the last of the Kellys
Now the queen of a rodeo

Was Joe your lover?
Did he send you some word?
A friend to your brothers
all the way to the end
Where as brothers-in-arms
they would fall

Close your eyes Kate
I'll sing you to sleep
Close your eyes, your dreams will be sweet
Kate Kelly, Kate Kelly
I'm gonna sing you to sleep
Kate Kelly, Kate Kelly
I'm gonna sing you to sleep

just keep on drinking
and you try to forget
How they strung up Joe Byrne
to the jailhouse door
Like a marionette

Oui rassure toi, elle va bien. Elle a quitté le japon pour retourner en nouvelle-calédonie, donc bon elle a plein de choses à faire du coup et d'un autre côté l'internet la bas à tendance à décourager les plus patients (faible débit tout pourri).
Mais je lui dirais de vive voix qu'elle est attendue de pied ferme sur DA ;)
Merci beaucoup :D!! J'ai eu en email de elle aujourd'hui ^_^ elle doit etre contente de rentrer a nouveau !
