There are few expressions other than the lament of the human voice which can capture such emotion. Even in the depths of suffering, beauty can be found. This song is one such treasure.
A beautiful song. One of pain and suffering, one of hope and determination, heartbreak and sorrow. This has so many emotions it’s hard to process it without tearing up a bit
@@youceflatreche3340 Be my woman gal I'll Be your Man (x3) Everydays Sunday dollar in your hand In your hand lordy, in your hand Everydays Sunday dollar in your hand Stick to the promise girl that You made me (x3) Won't got married til' uh I go free I go free lordy, I go free Won't got married til' uh I go free Whoa Rosie, hold on gal (x2) *When She walks she reel and Rocks behind (x2) Aint that enough to worry, convicts mind (x2) Whoa Rosie, hold on gal (x2)
No doubt, stick to that promise girl! Much love to all my beautiful black people! God shines on those who persevere through the hardest of times. As a people, black folks have had some very hard times, only to persevere and make shit look easy. Much Respect!
I know ??? 😡 Had this on a playlist for years.. gone. Glad I found it again. Background scenes have changed. Love Robert Johnson.. same with and understand why Clapton, Jimi, ‘ n Richards are there..(‘n I do love earlier Aerosmith Albums and for Joe Perry loving and bringin the blues to the sound of their band.. not quite sure why they’re pictured at the end, though ?)
"why it was taken down" 1. Slavery 2. Execution 3. racism back in the old days I find this song good and good thing they didn't take the whole song down in RU-vid.
@@Skellabunny420I had only listened to the Alan Lomax version and luckily it has never been taken down (yet). It sounds beyond authentic, just like that entire album.
@@malou1563 only from true artists, nothing that’s mass produced comes from the heart and soul. Meaning whoever sells their ass to make music ain’t no artist anymore. It’s just another bitch for the industry who will quickly disappear and be forgotten. Only true art is appreciated over generations.
@youcef letreche Here are the lyrics: Be my woman, gal I'll Be your man Be my woman, gal I'll Be your man Be my woman, gal I'll Be your man Every Sunday's dollar In your hand In your hand, Lordy In your hand Ever Sunday's dollar In your hand Stick to the promise, gal, that You made me Stick the promise, gal, that You made me Stick to the promise, gal, that You made me Wasn't gonna marry till I I go free I go free, Lordy I go free Wasn't gonna marry till I I go free Well, Rosie Hold on, gal Well, Rosie Hold on, gal When she walks she reels and rocks behind When she walks she reels and rocks behind Ain't that enough to worry convict’s mind Ain't that enough to worry convict's mind Well, Rosie Hold on, gal Well, Rosie Hold on, gal Be my woman, gal I'll Be your man Be my woman, gal I'll Be your man Be my woman, gal I'll Be your man Every Sunday's dollar In your hand Well, Rosie Hold on, gal Well, Rosie Hold on, gal
‘N thas how some/ they got through it. Music was mainly all they had.. to try ‘n keep their soul alive. Speaks the power of music.. the universal language. I don’t get how some people don’t know the history of it.. how powerful it is.. sometimes I wonder if we’d be dead without it? I know I would
You're still demeaning the power of this song. This was a cry of our Black men. You wonder why we don't trust and will come out stronger in the end.. and are 💪🏽🙌🏽
J'adore ces artistes! J'adore la façon dont ils ont inclus une culture vraiment incroyable dans leur chanson. J'espère qu'ils connaissaient la vraie tragédie de cette chanson de toute façon
Always wondered if it’s you that also uploaded the production version of Berta Berta! Listened to it maybe 2-3 years ago and haven’t been able to find it since! 😩😩
@@NotAboutTheClicks sorry if I was being wired but I thort this song would be more popular with black citizens so I was just saying it could be popular with people my racis to become it's so good and inspiring
This was taken from a audio documentary by Alan Lomax during the 1920 trying to Document slave songs by recording Prison chain gangs who were mostly made of POC. They are all real prisoners on a chain gang, The thump you hear is them literally chopping wood.
