Bobby Gentry - Ode to Billy Joe. + Informações

"Ode To Billie Joe" was a record phenomenon during the summer of 1967 staying at the #1 position for a solid month during a day and time in which a single week was more the norm. Bobbie Gentry was born in Mississippi and drew from her roots for most of her material, and in this case she not only wrote and sang the song but produced it was well. She never had another recording even approach the success of this one, and after a performance run in Las Vegas, she basically retired from the industry in the early 70's.. + Informações

And she reaches out and takes my hand And squeezes it, and says how you feeling hon? And I look across at smiling lips That warm my heart, and I see my morning sun. And if that's not lovin' me, Then all I've got to say, God didn't make the little green apples, And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summer time. There's no such thing as Dr. Seuss Disneyland and Mother Goose, No nursery rhymes. God didn't make the little green apples, And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summer time. And when myself is feeling low, I think about your face aglow and ease my mind. Sometimes I call him up, knowing he's busy. To ask if he could get away .... + Informações

No copyright infringement intended. If felt, please comment below and I will remove this video. This is a tribute to the great Bobbie Gentry and her amazing story ofovercoming tragedy (sort of)...about a girl from a poverty stricken family put in a terrible position. Bobbie's writing is brilliant and her music is breathetaking. This is the TRUE version...any other version is merely second hand...sorry, Reba!. + Informações
