GUEST,Luigi Lyr ADD: Angola Bound - Angola Prisoners' Blues (18) RE: Lyr ADD: Angola Bound - Angola Prisoners' Blues 16 Apr 25


Hi Iains, I wonder if you can possibly explain the meaning of these lines from Angola Bound by Aaron Neville quoted in your transcription published on Lyr Req 30 Jul 18

Third verse, third line: "You come up here skippin' and a' jumpin', oh Lord, it won't last long "

Who is "you" for example and why is skippin' and jumpin' ?

And fourth verse, third line " Oh they always talkin' 'bout dangerous blue "

Who is "dangerous blue "? A guard or an inmate or someone else?

Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards
Luigi
