Louisiana 1927 |
What has happened down here is the wind have changed |
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain |
Rained real hard and rained for a real long time |
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline |
The river rose all day |
The river rose all night |
Some people got lost in the flood |
Some people got away alright |
The river have busted through cleared down to Plaquemines |
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline |
Louisiana |
They’re tyring to wash us away |
Louisiana |
They’re trying to wash us away |
President Coolidge came down in a railroad train |
With a little fat man with a note-pad in his hand |
The President say, «Little fat man isn’t it a shame |
What the river has done |
To this poor crackers land |
