Tell me what did the blackbird say to the crow?
Dry your eyes don't you cry, ain't gonna rain no more
Men on the levee, dry wheat in the field
Pretty soon hear the tune of the threshing wheel
Tell me what did the moonlight ask the willow tree?
Tell me who is more blue is it you or me?
We've been together since I don't know when
And the best part's where one starts and the other ends
You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy
You and me always walk that lonesome valley
You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy
Tell me what did the riddle say to the song?
The Devil he's blowing reveille and we ain't got long
Let's play the Spider Bit The Baby-O
Last time, last rhyme, one more for the road
One more for the road
You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy
You and me always walk that lonesome valley
Dry your eyes don't you cry, ain't gonna rain no more
Men on the levee, dry wheat in the field
Pretty soon hear the tune of the threshing wheel
Tell me what did the moonlight ask the willow tree?
Tell me who is more blue is it you or me?
We've been together since I don't know when
And the best part's where one starts and the other ends
You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy
You and me always walk that lonesome valley
You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy
Tell me what did the riddle say to the song?
The Devil he's blowing reveille and we ain't got long
Let's play the Spider Bit The Baby-O
Last time, last rhyme, one more for the road
One more for the road
You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy
You and me always walk that lonesome valley

Gillian Welch and David Rawlings are going on tour early in 2025. I am looking forward to seeing them.
Oh boy... Do I have a soft spot for harmonies and minimalistic orchestration...
This is gorgeous

Minimalism used to excellent effect. Spare beauty.
Glad to hear new material from these two.
Saw them @ Newport Folk Festival they did a few of their new songs.
Awesome duo
