High Water Everywhere, Part. 2 |
Backwater at Blytheville, backed up all around |
It was fifty families and children come to sink and drown |
The water was rising up at my friend’s door |
The man said to his women folk Lord we’d better go The water was risin' got up in my bed |
I thought I would take a trip, Lord, out on the big ice sled |
Oh, I can hear, Lord, Lord, water upon my door |
I couldn’t get no boats there, Marion City gone down |
So high water was risin' our men sinkin down |
It was fifty men and children come to sink and drown |
Oh, Lordy, women and grown men drown |
I couldn’t see nobody home and was no one to be found |
