Bring Me A Little Water (new Morning) Lyrics

Sylvie is a good old girl, from Florida so they say
She came up here last April to pass some time away
Now won't you bring me a little water, Sylvie?
Bring me a little water now?
Bring me a little water, Sylvie?
For my tired brow
Sylvie came here Wednesday,
She came this morning by the light of the dawn
She comes up here now nearly all of the time
To see if she can carry on
Now won't you bring me a little water, Sylvie?
Bring me a little water now?
Bring me a little water, Sylvie?
For my tired brow
Sylvie says she loves me, She says it all of the time
She always gets behind me,
When the hill is too high to climb
Now bring me a little water, Sylvie?
Bring me a little water now?
Bring me a little water, Sylvie?
For my tired brow
She brings beer and honey,
Brings me slop and beans
Brings me coconuts and candy,
Brings me turnip greens
Bring me a little water, Sylvie?
Bring me a little water now?
Bring me a little water, Sylvie?
For my tired brow
For my tired brow
Oh, for my tired brow
