A Flood On Our Hands |
| The rivers are swollen |
| We got a flood on our hands |
| Get out the buckets |
| And the pots and pans |
| Mama put the pictures |
| In the old wooden boat |
| Billy get the baby |
| And mamas overcoat |
| Theres high ground at Gruene |
| At the old Gristmill Store |
| We can keep everybody dry |
| If it dont rain no more |
| We got a Flood on Our Hands |
| The rains gonna keep comin down |
| Has anybody talked to sister |
| Since the lines went down? |
| She spent the night with Mandy |
| On the low side of town |
| I do hope shes watchin |
| On the outside tonight |
| She ain’t been herself |
| Since she lost little Dwight |
| You dont never miss |
| What you ain’t got |
| Till you wake up some morning |
| And youve lost the whole lot |
| We got a Flood on Our Hands |
| The rains gonna keep comin down |
| Thank God were all together |
| Thats all we really need |
| You can’t change the weather |
| But you can plant new seed |
| No life is spared |
| To the ones who blame |
| A God with out mercy |
| Pride with out Shame |
| Like Noah of old |
| Was put to the test |
| To see if his faith |
| Was deeper than the rest |
| We got a Flood on Our Hands |
| And the Rains gonna keep Comin Down |
| Mama get the Shotgun |
| And the pictures of dad |
| Someday well look back |
| On everything we had |
| We got a Flood on Our Hands |
| The rains gonna keep comin down |
