Sylvie

Lyrics
[Chorus] Sylvie Sylvie I'm so hot'n dry Sylvie Sylvie Can't you hear Can't you hear me crying? [Refrain] Bring me little water, Sylvie Bring me little water now Bring me little water, Sylvie Every little once in a while Every little once in a while [Verse 1] Sylvie says she loves me But I believe she lies She hasn't been to see me Since the last day of July [Chorus] Sylvie Sylvie I'm so hot'n dry Sylvie Sylvie Can't you hear Can't you hear me crying? [Refrain] Bring me little water, Sylvie Bring me little water now Bring me little water, Sylvie Every little once in a while Every little once in a while [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Sylvie Sylvie I'm so hot'n dry Sylvie Sylvie Little drink of water Wouldn't satisfy me [Refrain] Bring it in a bucket, Sylvie Bring it in a bucket, now Bring it in a bucket, Sylvie Every little once in a while Every little once in a while [Verse 3] Took a look a yonder What is that I see? Well, I thought it was little Sylvie A-comin' after me [Chorus] Sylvie Sylvie I'm so hot'n dry Sylvie Sylvie Can't you hear Can't you hear me crying? [Refrain] Bring me little water, Sylvie Bring me little water now Bring me little water, Sylvie Every little once in a while Every little once in a while [Outro] Every Little once In a while
