Flood Water Blues (Remaster) - Lonnie Johnson[00:00:00]
Written by:Lonnie Johnson[00:00:01]
It's been snowin' forty days and nights[00:00:15]
Lakes and rivers begin to freeze[00:00:18]
It's been snowin' forty days and nights[00:00:25]
Rivers and lakes begin to freeze[00:00:29]
Some places through my old hometown[00:00:35]
Water's up above my knees[00:00:39]
Storm begin risin' and the sun[00:00:45]
Begin sinking down[00:00:49]
Storm begin risin' the sun[00:00:55]
Begin sinking down[00:00:58]
I says mother and dad pack your trunk[00:01:04]
We ain't safe here in this town[00:01:07]
When it lightnin' my mind gets frightened[00:01:14]
My nerves begin weakenin' down[00:01:17]
When it lightnin' my mind gets frightened[00:01:23]
My nerves begin weakenin' down[00:01:26]
And the shack where[00:01:32]
We was livin' begin movin' 'round[00:01:34]
Women and children were screamin' sayin'[00:01:42]
Mama why must we go[00:01:45]
Women and children were screamin' sayin'[00:01:51]
Lord where must we go[00:01:54]
The floodwater have broke the levees[00:02:00]
And we ain't safe here no more[00:02:03]
And begin cloud as dark as midnight[00:02:10]
Keep raining all the time[00:02:14]
I say oh I wonder[00:02:19]
Why the sun don't ever shine[00:02:21]
And the way it keeps rainin'[00:02:29]
It's drivin' me out my mind[00:02:31]
