I'm going to do another old song.
This is a song that I learned from one of my earliest heroes, from the wonderful Odetta. _ _
Odetta is somebody who I idolized from about age 8 until into my teens.
When I was about 11, I painted a huge portrait of her at the foot of my bed _ in tempera colors.
I kind of graphed the album cover and transferred it right over there to the foot of my bed, directly onto the wall.
I painted in the earrings with great love.
[E] I had a chance to do a show with Odetta not so long ago in my mom's hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico.
_ I told the story about painting [Eb] Odetta's portrait at the foot of my bed.
She was in the audience, she heard it, and when she came on she called me Eric the Delicious.
Yeah, _ [N] she did.
She said, I want to thank Eric the Delicious for that wonderful story.
_ _ _ So, hereafter I am Eric the Delicious.
_ _ Thank you.
I'm going to just switch guitars. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ This is an old song.
It's called No More Cane, No More Sugar Cane on the Brazos.
This is a song about a prison in the state of Texas.
This is a true story.
This is like, you know, Ned Kelly true stories.
_ Yeah, _ the real thing, exactly.
_ _ _ _ Anyhow, this is a slice of life, [E] a true history song.
_ [Eb] _
I [D] learned this from Odetta.
