Black Water - Warner Music Version

VIEWERS: WARNER MUSIC AND YOUTUBE BLOCKED THIS VIDEO'S ORIGINAL AUDIO TRACK. I have tried YT's "Audio Swap" and the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button, and this is what they selected. No disrespect to the artist, but it obviously isn't a good match, nor would anything be. Isn't GREED a wonderful thing!?! If you've used WARNER-owned music, be prepared -- you could be next! Please join me in boycotting purchase of any Warner-owned music. Read the CD jacket for label information. ~~ Lynn 09-01-23


Black Water by the Doobie Brothers has always been one of my favorites.

Black Water
The Doobie Brothers

Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin'
Ol Mississippi, she's callin' my name
Catfish are jumpin'
That paddle wheel thumpin'
Black water keeps rollin' on past just the same

Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light
Gonna make everything, pretty mama
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
cause I ain't in no hurry at all

Well, if it rains, I don't care
Don't make no difference to me
Just take that street car that's goin' up town
Yeah, I'd like to hear some funky dixieland
And dance a honky tonk
And I'll be buyin' ev'rybody drinks all round

Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light
Gonna make everything, pretty mama
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
cause I ain't in no hurry at all

I'd like to hear some funky dixieland
Pretty mama come and take me by the hand
By the hand, take me by the hand pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long
I want to honky tonk, honky tonk, honky tonk
With you all night long

What the hell is that??? You idiots just trying 2 force us to do what? I don't know I sure won't be back to your crap! Warning this is not what it says it is!!!!!!

[MyLaydy]

@vtheatman This was the original "Black Water", but the audio was blocked by the Warner/YouTube dispute. I was forced to replace the audio with one of YouTube's offerings. If you read the video description, you will see that this is my way of protesting. I'm sorry you were disappointed. I most certainly was too.

[PATTONM14A1]

You know what MyLaydy repost the video a couple with the actual song in it. Fuck Warner Music Group. All they want to do is turn youtube into Itunes so they can force everyone to pay to watch videos and so they can shove their god damn corporate advertising down everybodies throat.

[MyLaydy]

Unfortunately YT block it as soon as they encode it. Believe me, I've tried! But if you've got a copy of the song, play it while you watch. I think it's a pretty good match. ;-) Thanks.

i'd like to hear some funky dixieland, but warner music came and snatched it from your hand

You may think that downloading or "pirating" music hurts musicians in some way, but in reality, it is a godsend. It's the fastest conceivable way on the planet to let as many people as humanly possible sample your music, and therefore, attend your concerts. And if they're dedicated fans, they WILL eventually buy your CDs.

Many musicians owe all their success to the people who've downloaded their music...without them, they'd have continued to be unknown and never would have gotten anywhere.

Just take the video down...what's the point

[OliveMonkeys]

Wtf is this?

[dahoss65]

You can believe me when I say that Warner Music gets jack shit from me these days. The only thing keeping those clowns afloat today are foolish kids.

[nolen1975]

What in the hell is this??? Terrible thing to block the Doobie Brothers.

[KINGGREATESTROCKSTAR]

MOST ENJOYED

Check out the movie "Cabin Fever". Looks like West Virginia. Scary senerio.

By Eli Roth; about the water contamination and poisoning all who live there. It is still in the water going down the mountain. Horror.

[roxanneisscreaming]

not even close to the original, I don't even know this song...blah blah blah
