From Elvis Costello's 2009 album, Secret, Profane and Sugarcane. Backed by country players with no drummer. How Deep Is The Red is a poignant tune, with a fine example of Elvis wordplay. The fiddle is by Stuart Duncan.
Is this is not a pretty tale? Is this not a riddle?
A bow shoots arrows through the air
A bow drags notes from a fiddle
But who is the beau of a young girl's heart?
That a king may send to battle
