Sylvie, Sylvie, I?m so hot an? dry
Sylvie, Sylvie, can?t you hear
Can?t you hear me crying
Bring me a little water Sylvie
Bring me a little water now
Bring me a little water Sylvie
Ev?ry little once in a while
Sylvie say she loves me
But I believe she lie
She hasn?t been to see me
Since the last day of July
She brought me a little coffee
She brought me a little tea
Well she brought my nearly ev?ry damn thing
But she didn?t bring the jailhouse key
A little drink of water wouldn?t satisfy me
Bring it in a bucket Sylvie
Bring it in a bucket now
Bring it in a bucket Sylvie
Ev?ry little once in a while
Ev?ry little once in a while
Look a look a yonder
What is that I see
Well I thought is was little Sylvie
A coming after me.
