"We only live twice
or so it seems..
One life for yourself..
and one for your dream"
-Flat Duo Jets, 'You only live twice'-
I got the shivers man, the first time I heard that song. So yeah, its official. Dexter Romweber is one of my musical god now. So I guess I owe you another one eh, Jack?
Last Kind Word Blues(Geeshie Wiley cover)
(lyrics below not complete or fully correct) The last kind word I heard my daddy say Lord the last kind word I heard my daddy say If I die, if I die in the German War I want you to send my body, send it to my mother-in-law If I get killed, if I get killed, please don't bury my soul I (p'fer) just leave me out, let the buzzards eat me whole When you see me comin', look 'cross the rich man's field If I don't bring you flour, I'll bring you bolted meal I went to the depot, I looked up at the sign Cry some train don't come, there'll be some walkin' done My momma told me, just before she died Lord, (since the dawn, I thought you'd be so wise?) (Oh precious daughter, don't you be so wise) The Mississippi River, you know it's deep and wide I can stand right here, see my (babe?) (face?) from the other side What you do to me baby, it never gets out of me I mean I'll see you, after I cross the deep blue sea
Jack White had invited Dexter and his sister Sara Romweber to record a 7' under his Third Man Records, resulting in a...kind of collaboration (albeit for just 2 songs) between Jack and his hero. In an interview, Sara recalled that after Jack finished the recording of the song, he had this big ass grin on his face and said "You dont know how long I fucking wait to hear that guitar tone in my studio.." or something like that.
