about

A more somber take on this prohibition themed tune

lyrics

Raleigh and Spencer are burning down
Lord, there ain't no more liquor in this town
No, there ain't no more liquor in this town
What you gonna do to wet those lips
When this whole darn world's gone dry?
When this whole darn world's gone dry?

I've been all around this whole wide world
I've been down to Memphis, Tennessee
I've been down to Memphis, Tennessee
I've played cards with the king and the queen
Shot them dice with old Jesse James
Shot them dice with old Jesse James

Raleigh and Spencer are burning down
Lord, there ain't no more liquor in this town
No, there ain't no more liquor in this town

I've pawned my shoes for a bottle of booze
I drink it, I lay down and die
I drink it, I lay down and die
Stomp down the flowers that grow round my grave
But they'll rise and bloom again
Yes, they'll rise and bloom again

Raleigh and Spencer are burning down
Lord, there ain't no more liquor in this town
No, there ain't no more liquor in this town

about

Cory Seznec image

Cory Seznec Paris, France

Somewhere between musical wanderer and uncertified ethnomusicologist dwells the artist Cory Seznec and his unique world.
A French-American in Paris, Seznec’s fingerstyle guitar-playing is syncopated, polyrhythmic, cross-pollinated, and idiosyncratic. He also sings, plays old-time banjo, and wades in the deep river of American song.
