《Flood Water》歌词

[00:00:00] Flood Water Blues (Remaster) - Lonnie Johnson

[00:00:07] Written by：Lonnie Johnson

[00:00:15] It's been snowin' forty days and nights

[00:00:18] Lakes and rivers begin to freeze

[00:00:25] It's been snowin' forty days and nights

[00:00:29] Rivers and lakes begin to freeze

[00:00:35] Some places through my old hometown

[00:00:39] Water's up above my knees

[00:00:45] Storm begin risin' and the sun

[00:00:49] Begin sinking down

[00:00:55] Storm begin risin' the sun

[00:00:58] Begin sinking down

[00:01:04] I says mother and dad pack your trunk

[00:01:07] We ain't safe here in this town

[00:01:14] When it lightnin' my mind gets frightened

[00:01:17] My nerves begin weakenin' down

[00:01:23] When it lightnin' my mind gets frightened

[00:01:26] My nerves begin weakenin' down

[00:01:32] And the shack where

[00:01:34] We was livin' begin movin' 'round

[00:01:42] Women and children were screamin' sayin'

[00:01:45] Mama why must we go

[00:01:51] Women and children were screamin' sayin'

[00:01:54] Lord where must we go

[00:02:00] The floodwater have broke the levees

[00:02:03] And we ain't safe here no more

[00:02:10] And begin cloud as dark as midnight

[00:02:14] Keep raining all the time

[00:02:19] I say oh I wonder

[00:02:21] Why the sun don't ever shine

[00:02:28] And the way it keeps rainin'

[00:02:31] It's drivin' me out my mind
