lyrics
I never said, never did nothin’ wrong
never said that I could’ve done better
and nothin’ goes too right for me
I find myself always hungry
Black was the ribbon they swear I stolen
it would’ve looked fine in my long black hair
it was my word on hers and you know who the jury heard
I find myself always hungry
On the Lady Penrhyn with a child on my breast
sailing the stars and the 40th parallel
I never been this far from home
And still I am always hungry
A tall Scottish Sir tells me he loves me
Rosanna is also to his pleasin’
he helps where he can but he can’t help that much
we find ourselves always hungry
Almost one year the fishin’ gone thin
blacks all around us is starvin’
I dream of my home, I feel so alone
It’s the curse of us all, always wanting
Rosanna and I always hungry

Thanks to records like this and the output of other artists like Jake Xerxes Fussell and Kaia Kater, I'm slowly recuperating the time I wasted overlooking American folk music and country. Ben Harris
Inspired by John Carpenter’s 1974 film “Dark Star,” the beautifully moody songs on this LP present a voyage into the unknown. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 21, 2021
