Tupelo |
| Did you read about the flood? |
| It happened long time ago, in a little country town, way back in Mississippi |
| It rained and it rained, it rained both night and day |
| The people got worried, they began to cry |
| «lord have mercy, where can we go now?» |
| There were women and there was children, screaming and crying |
| «lord have mercy and a great disaster, who can we turn to now, but you?» |
| The great flood of Tupelo, Mississippi |
| It happened one evenin', one Friday evenin', a long time ago |
| It rained and it started rainin' |
| The people of Tupelo, out on the farm gathering their harvest |
| A dark cloud rolled, way back in Tupelo, Mississippi, hmm, hmm |
| Wasn’t that a mighty time |
| Wasn’t that a mighty time? |
| Wasn’t that a mighty time |
| A mighty time, that evenin'? |
| It rained, both night and day |
| The poor people that had no place to go, hmm, hmm |
| A little town, called Tupelo, Mississippi |
| I never forget it and I know you won’t either |
