Southern Angel

from Bye & Bye by Stephen Hardy Palmer

/

about

Cara Luft adds some sweet clawhammer banjo to this gentle ballad about a late night musician.

lyrics

SOUTHERN ANGEL
Southern Angel she don’t sing
But she can make that banjo ring
High and Lonesome

Pick it sad and play it sweet
She can make that banjo weep
High and Lonesome

These hotel walls are cheap
But that don’t bother me
I don’t need no sleep
When ev’ry note’s in harmony

Pick it sad and play it sweet
She can play the Blues for me
High and Lonesome

Wishin’ I could be there too
Pick away the whole night thru
Heartbroke and lovesick blues
3 chords and there’s the truth

Pick it sad and play it sweet
She can make that banjo weep
High and Lonesome

Southern Angel she don’t sing
But she can make that banjo ring
High and Lonesome
(S H Palmer)

about

Stephen Hardy Palmer Gatineau, Québec

‘There are miles in Palmer’s voice; you can almost see the scenery that his mind has captured through the decades of his life. Palmer’s songwriting and guitar playing are tasteful and bittersweet, his music is crafted with feeling and poetic flair. I’m reminded of another acoustic icon, Gordon Lightfoot.”- TwangTown Magazine ... more
