The second single from CNRMXD is world-renowned producer Jesse Fischer's remix of “See Line Woman.” With this remix, Jesse has tapped into the simmering sensual energy & seaport origins of Nina Simone’s iconic original version, & thrust it into an underground NYC dance party with pulsating drums, bone-rattling bass, smooth synths, punchy horns & the soulful voice of Brianna Thomas. This track has a chill & sexy mix of jazz & electronic (with some Afrobeat flavor) that honor the original while taking it to bold new places.
lyrics
(See line)
See line woman, she drink coffee,
She drink tea, and then go home,
See line, see line woman. (See line)
See line woman, dressed in green,
Wears silk stockings with golden seams,
See line woman. (See line)
See line woman, dressed in red,
Make a man lose his head,
See line, see line woman. (See line)
See line woman, black dress on,
For a thousand dollars, she'll wail and she'll moan, she'll moan,
See line woman. (See line)
Ah.
Wiggle, wiggle, turn like a cat,
Wink at a man and he'll wink back,
See line, see line, see line woman. (See line)
Empty his pockets and wreck his days,
Make him love her and she'll fly, fly away,
Oh, see line woman. (See line)
See line, see line, see line, see line woman. (See line)
See line, see line, see line woman. (See line)
