Well, goodness is it really real
It'd take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Oh yeah, I'm a sinner
And I ain't some beginner
I'll uncork a pint of trouble
Sit down and drink a double.

I'm thirsty for something lighter
That'll get me even tighter
And tighter until one day
I think I hear angels play.

Goodness is it really real
It'd take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

Now someday up in glory
Well, I'll weep and tell the story
To someone who will smile
And say you're a mess but you're my child.

Goodness is it really real
It'd take a baby child to know the way I feel
Oh, my flutter to the blue
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you.

"Emmylouuuuuu

Emmylou Harris with Hot Band - "Jambalya" Live:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJw_06FcDrE

"Hank Williams song "Jambalya" live from a show in Texas. "

"She may have a country twang but she is and always has been a rocker! She always has top notched musicians playing with her and to see her live is one of the greatest things I've ever experienced. Rock on Emmy Lou!!!! "

"Fantastic! I'm of 1947 vintage myself. The song seems to have been around all my life. I can remember my mom and dad singing this along with the radio when we went for drives in the country...and they weren't even your basic country fans! The song just perks you up. As for Emmy Lou, she is still beautiful and she still has the voice. "
