[00:00:00] Rising High Water Blues - Blind Lemon Jefferson

[00:00:00] Written by：Blind Lemon Jefferson

[00:00:08] Backwater rising

[00:00:11] Southern peoples can't make no time

[00:00:18] I said

[00:00:18] Backwater rising

[00:00:21] Southern peoples can't make no time

[00:00:28] And I can't get no hearing

[00:00:31] From that Memphis girl of mine

[00:00:38] Water in Arkansas

[00:00:41] People screaming in Tennessee

[00:00:47] Oh people screaming in Tennessee

[00:00:55] If I don't leave Memphis

[00:00:58] Backwater spill all over poor me

[00:01:05] People since its raining

[00:01:09] It has been for nights and days

[00:01:14] People since its raining

[00:01:17] Has been for nights and days

[00:01:24] Thousands people stands on the hill

[00:01:27] Looking down were they used to stay

[00:01:33] Children stand there screaming mama

[00:01:37] We ain't got no home

[00:01:42] Oh mama we ain't got no home

[00:01:50] Papa says to the children

[00:01:53] Backwater left us all alone

[00:02:01] Backwater rising

[00:02:04] Come in my windows and door

[00:02:10] The backwater rising

[00:02:12] Come in my windows and door

[00:02:17] I leave with a prayer in my heart

[00:02:20] Backwater won't rise no more
