There were three men came out of the west, their fortunes for to try
And these three men made a solemn vow
John barleycorn must die
Theyve plowed, theyve sown, theyve harrowed him in
Threw clods upon his head
And these three men made a solemn vow
John barleycorn was dead
Theyve let him lie for a very long time, til the rains from heaven did fall
And little sir john sprung up his head and so amazed them all
Theyve let him stand til midsummers day til he looked both pale and wan
And little sir johns grown a long long beard and so become a man
Theyve hired men with their scythes so sharp to cut him off at the knee
Theyve rolled him and tied him by the way, serving him most barbarously
Theyve hired men with their sharp pitchforks whove pricked him to the heart
And the loader he has served him worse than that
For hes bound him to the cart
Theyve wheeled him around and around a field til they came onto a pond
And there they made a solemn oath on poor john barleycorn
Theyve hired men with their crabtree sticks to cut him skin from bone
And the miller he has served him worse than that
For hes ground him between two stones
And little sir john and the nut brown bowl and his brandy in the glass
And little sir john and the nut brown bowl proved the strongest man at last
The huntsman he cant hunt the fox nor so loudly to blow his horn
And the tinker he cant mend kettle or pots without a little barleycorn

Steve Winwood (nato Stephen Lawrence Winwood il 12 maggio 1948) è un leggendario musicista britannico noto per la sua poliedrica carriera che spazia dal rock al blues, dal soul al jazz. Iniziò a suonare giovanissimo, entrando nel gruppo The Spencer Davis Group all'età di 16 anni. Con loro ottenne grande successo negli anni '60 con brani come "Gimme Some Lovin'". Dopo la disgregazione del gruppo, Winwood si unì a Traffic, band psichedelica che lo vide comporre e interpretare successi come "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" e "Feelin' Alright". Nel 1969 formò Blind Faith con Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker e Steve Stills, un supergruppo che registrò un unico album auto-intitolato prima di sciogliersi. Negli anni '70 Winwood intraprese una carriera solista di grande successo, pubblicando album come "Arc of a Diver" (1982) con il singolo "Higher Love", e "Back in the High Life" (1986), che lo consacrò come uno dei più grandi artisti del suo tempo. Winwood è stato insignito di numerosi premi, tra cui un Grammy Award per la sua carriera musicale.
