Album Notes

One of those artists whose music consistently has such quality that you would buy any of her albums, regardless of the focus and style. With her signature, unforgettably unique voice that is both accessible with a casual quality and yet restrained with a sophisticated distance, Leni Stern delivers another slam-dunk album, this time channeling her talent through a more bluesy and jazzy style. If you're not familiar with Leni yet, now is the time to get in the loop. - "CD Baby" ***************** ICE COLD WATER...$1 By Leni Stern When the sun comes up in New Orleans And the last of the bands goes home to sleep I push my cart down Bourbon St. I get some ice I get something to eat I sit on my spot and wait for the heat Come 11 I start to holler Ice Cold water One dollar My brother is tall, he's as smart as can be He cuts up beer cans, sticks them to his feet He taps with his friends on the corner of the street I can see him fighting for the money he keeps I have to admit he's a thief Me, I sit on my spot and holler Ice Cold water One dollar Br: What's good is bad, what's bad is good Here comes the rich folk There goes the neighborhood One side of the sky is full of rain The other side is full of light Here comes the thunder The devil must be beating his wife Solo When the sun goes down over the bayou The city wakes up, the day is through The pretty girls put on their dancing shoes The hustlers and the whores are waiting for you The moon comes up, I've got nothing left to do So I pack up my stuff and stop to holler Ice cold water One dollar
