Southern Flood Blues
Lyricist:William Broonzy
Early one morning Water was comin' in my door Early one morning Water was comin' in my door
It was the old high river Tellin' us to get ready and go It was dark and it was rainin' You could hear that howlin' wind
It was dark and it was rainin' Baby, you could hear that howlin' wind If I get away this time I will never come here again
Hey, my baby was cryin' I didn't have a thing to eat Hey, I didn't have a thing to eat
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Hey, the water had come in Washed everything I had down the street
I was hollerin' for mercy And it weren't no boats around Hey, I was hollerin' for mercy And it weren't no boats around
Hey, that looks like people I've gotta stay right here and drown Hey, my house started shakin' Started floatin' on down the stream
Hey, my house started shakin' Went floatin' on down the stream It was dark as midnight People began to holler and scream
