God Forsaken Town |
| They we say we’ve got to leave but there’s no way to go |
| This ain’t the first time we’ve weathered out a storm |
| And I ain’t got nothing but at least I know it’s mine |
| And I’ll be god damned if I’m leaving here before the day I die |
| So let the rain sting my neck |
| Let the mighty Mississippi take this god-forsaken town |
| Let the storm and all the fury come and carry me away |
| Take me to that place somewhere on higher ground |
| The voices on the radio were cracking off and on |
| The court is underwater and the levees all but gone |
| There’s children in the treetops and soldiers in the sky |
| It’s too late now to run I’d never make it out alive |
| Everyone sit tight help is on the way |
| I don’t think Jr. is going to last another day |
| We got a sawed off and a red hot .44 |
| So all you looters best come heavy when you’re knocking on my door |
| (Bridge) |
| We all know this crescent city just won’t be the same again |
| And I’ll still be standing' when the saints go marching in |
| X’s on the windows say there’s no one left inside |
| If you count the painted numbers you’ll know just how many died |
| And I’m one in half a million so at least I’m not alone |
| The hurricane is over but the storm keeps raging on |
| So let the rain sting my neck |
| Let the mighty Mississippi take this god-forsaken town |
| Let the storm and all the fury come and carry me away |
| Take me to that place somewhere on higher ground |
| Take me to that place somewhere on higher ground |
