High Water Everywhere Pt.2 - Charley Patton[00:00:00]
Backwater at Blytheville backed up all around[00:00:02]
Backwater at Blytheville done took Joiner town[00:00:14]
It was fifty families and children come to sink and drown[00:00:24]
The water was risin' up at my friend's door[00:00:35]
The water was risin' up at my friend's door[00:00:46]
The man said to his women folk[00:00:56]
"Lord we'd better go"[00:00:59]
The water was risin' got up in my bed[00:01:06]
Lord the water was rollin' got up to my bed[00:01:15]
I thought I would take a trip[00:01:24]
Lord out on the big ice sled[00:01:26]
Oh I can hear Lord Lord water upon my door[00:01:34]
You know what I mean look-a here[00:01:41]
I hear the ice Lord Lord was sinkin' down[00:01:46]
I couldn't get no boats there[00:01:54]
Marion City gone down[00:01:58]
So high the water was risin' our men sinkin' down[00:02:02]
Man the water was risin' at places all around[00:02:12]
Boy they's all around[00:02:18]
It was fifty men and children come to sink and drown[00:02:22]
Oh Lordy women and grown men drown[00:02:29]
Oh women and children sinkin' down[00:02:38]
Lord have mercy[00:02:44]
I couldn't see nobody's home[00:02:47]
And wasn't no one to be found[00:02:49]
