The Garden Queen

I've been playing the Mississippi John Hurt tune My Creole Belle for 5 or 6 years on the dobro. This demo recording is my attempt at reworking the melody in a different style of music (swirly electric guitar with mellotron!) with the addition of some new lyrics.  This one goes out to Josephine Burr.

My Josephine
The garden queen
Her flowers blooming
The weeds so green

A season turns
Fires burn
Our star is shining
My Josephine
