Luba The Baroness - Joan Baez[00:00:01]
Luba it was only the finest wine[00:00:17]
Means or no means[00:00:24]
Only the finest place to dine[00:00:26]
Paris in the sixties[00:00:32]
You had three sons[00:00:34]
Handsome husband by your side[00:00:40]
I flirted with everyone[00:00:42]
Your husband aging but vain[00:00:48]
With the ladies was quite renowned[00:00:50]
Author of books made famous[00:00:56]
On his years in the French Underground[00:00:58]
But you Luba the Baroness[00:01:03]
It was really your blue blood[00:01:06]
No one could touch you with kid gloves[00:01:11]
And no one ever should[00:01:14]
And the hands of little Julian[00:01:19]
Will guide you well[00:01:24]
Et le pere du petit Sebastian[00:01:29]
Vous attend dans le ceil[00:01:33]
The youngest son Jerome[00:01:43]
Brighter than he could be[00:01:47]
Preferred the darkened corners[00:01:51]
And was even a little too young for me[00:01:53]
Tall and shy and crafty[00:01:59]
He was oh so scholarly then[00:02:01]
Got married later on[00:02:06]
Had a child by the name of Julian[00:02:09]
The eldest Jean Francoise[00:02:15]
What a mixture of sweetness and snobbery[00:02:17]
Milkfed by his mother[00:02:23]
On Russian aristocracy[00:02:25]
With wits like sabre through silk[00:02:30]
He was the wisest one[00:02:33]
Married and remarried[00:02:38]
Had a child by the name of Sebastian[00:02:40]
And the hands of little Julian[00:02:45]
Will guide you well[00:02:51]
Et le pere du petit Sebastian[00:02:55]
Vous attend dans le ceil[00:03:00]
Ah my sweet Christophe[00:03:10]
You were only seventeen[00:03:12]
First family dinners with the gypsies[00:03:17]
Finger chimes and tambourines[00:03:20]
With candlelit eyes of experience[00:03:25]
Oh how you laughed at me[00:03:28]
As I became rapidly foolish[00:03:33]
Under your gaze and on red burgundy[00:03:35]
In sixty-nine your father died[00:03:41]
I saw you in the years between[00:03:45]
Handsome impetuous son of the rich[00:03:49]
Taking care of your mother the queen[00:03:53]
And you are married now as well[00:04:01]
It was inevitable[00:04:05]
Three day wedding in the south of France[00:04:09]
To an angel named Annabelle[00:04:11]
Recently I was in France[00:04:33]
I called you on the phone[00:04:36]
Caught racing back through memories[00:04:41]
Luba was at home[00:04:44]
Her voice sounded quite the same[00:04:49]
As we touched on the amenities[00:04:51]
Suddenly it fell and shattered[00:04:57]
Like a thousand broken tiffanies[00:04:59]
In November Jean Francoise died[00:05:05]
We were all there by his side[00:05:09]
Sorry darling that I cried[00:05:14]
It's hard to keep these things inside[00:05:18]
Where are you staying and how's your son[00:05:21]
No we hardly told anyone[00:05:25]
How long are you here are you with someone[00:05:29]
Hold it I'll put Christophe on the phone[00:05:34]
Ah my sweet Christophe[00:05:42]
Same damn voice[00:05:46]
Hell of a way to become the eldest son[00:05:50]
It's true you had no choice[00:05:53]
And you and Annabelle[00:05:57]
You must take care of her[00:06:00]
Yes I'll be over later on[00:06:05]
And I'll bring my guitar[00:06:09]
While going through things afterward[00:06:14]
A letter she wrote and never sent[00:06:18]
A single phrase stood out to you[00:06:22]
These are the words and how it went[00:06:26]
And the hands of little Julian[00:06:33]
Will guide you well[00:06:38]
Et le pere du petit Sebastian[00:06:43]
Nous attend dans le ceil[00:06:48]
