Casey Bill Weldon - Flood Water Blues - No. 2 (take 2) lyrics

Artist: Casey Bill Weldon

album: Casey Bill Weldon Vol. 1 1935-1936


It's high water in the east, has flooded all that river town
It's high water in the east, has flooded all that river town
Ev'rybody's gettin' warnin' to go to the hills before the dawn
So I caught a train, I got back home at the break of day
Oh, I caught a train, got back home about the break of day
I looked for my house, the river had taken my house away
I rowed a boat across the river, the water was rough as it could be
I rowed a boat across this river, water was rough as it could be
I hear the women and children screamin', "Ooh-hoo, please save poor me!"
And then I tried so hard to turn my boat around
Then I tried so hard to turn my boat around
But that water was so rough, it turned my boat upside down
Oh, I was satisfied, I didn't have to moan and cry
I was satisfied, I didn't have to moan and cry
Because when I looked upstream, I seen that mule come swimmin' by
I caught that mule and went swimmin' down the stream
I caught that mule and went swimmin' down the stream
And I rode that mule, ooh-hoo, to the nearest hill I seen
