Someone You Know |
| The levee’s gonna break, the water’s so high |
| And they’re tryin' to make me move |
| It’s been rainin' 6 days and 14 nights |
| I got way too much to lose |
| I built this house with my daddy’s hands |
| My first boy was born inside |
| I promised my momma I would be a man |
| I ain’t leavin' here tonight |
| City’s on fire |
| Under water |
| Mothers and fathers |
| Sons and daughters |
| I am someone you know |
| Never thought I’d have to come and knock on your door |
| I am someone you know |
| River pushed me down, but I ain’t ready to go |
| I am someone you know |
| Hey listen now |
| Dirty ass water, water everywhere |
| And not a drop to drink |
| I went to cast my vote but the poll was closed |
| And then the city just started to sink |
| I wonder if they’ll find us in a thousand years |
| And say who let this go down |
| The river rose up on a trillion tears |
| And washed the poor folks out of town |
| City’s on fire |
| Under water |
| Mothers and fathers |
| Sons and daughters |
| I am someone you know |
| Never thought I’d have to come and knock on your door |
| I am someone you know |
| River pushed me down, but I ain’t ready to go |
| I am someone |
| I reached out my hand |
| But you did not notice |
| It’s ok, I understand |
| Lord knows these times are hard |
| Just know that I am here |
| If you need assurance |
| I have made my choice |
| And the Lord will hear my voice |
| I am someone you know |
| Never thought I’d have to come and knock on your door |
| I am someone you know |
| River pushed me down, but I ain’t ready to go |
| I am someone you know |
| Never thought I’d have to come and knock on your door |
| I am someone you know |
| Spending all my money on the president’s war |
| Freedom isn’t free |
| Especially when you’re broke |
| Take me by the hand |
| I can’t take it no more |
| Trying to get a job |
| There ain’t no jobs around |
| Trying to feed my family |
| On this change I found |
| There’s the Govorner’s house |
| Looks so good on the hill |
| You got to stand in line |
| Got to get your fill |
| Swear I heard one man, one vote |
| Sure as hell ain’t all she wrote |
| I got bills and they’re all late |
| I’m still waitin' on the state |
| Oooooh |
| I am someone you know |
