Lady’s Lament

Wynton Marsalis

[MEN, spoken]
Fourteen years of bondage has passed. 

[LEONA]
Mmm hmm, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm, mmm hmm hmm hmm
Mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Night falls
And then the day breaks
Again the night falls
And then my heart breaks
Again in morning
I face the same old, same old day

I thirst for romance
One dance
To give me back my body
Night falls
Come little romance
Just one cool drink, just one cool drink

I think I hear a drum
I think I hear a drum
I think I hear a drum, mmm

[JESSE]
I think I'm gonna leave this slave life behind

You don't hear no drums, woman
You don't hear no drums
Woman, you don't hear no drums
I think I'm gonna leave this slave life behind
