From the recording Big Change Coming
Lyrics
I woke up this morning
Lord, the fields too wet to plow
I woke up this morning
Lord, the fields too wet to plow
I'm lookin' out my window
And the rain's still comin' down
High water risin'
I've got water on my floor
High water risin'
I've got water on my floor
It keeps on rainin'
It's startin' to come through my door
Rain keeps comin'
It's gonna take my home away
Rain keeps comin'
It's gonna take my home away
It's time to look to higher ground
Before it gets too late
I'm up on the hill
Lookin' where my house used to be
I'm up on the hill
Lookin' where my house used to be
Now where am I gonna live
What's gonna happen to me
High water done rose up
And took away my happy home
High water done rose up
And took away my happy home
It's time to take my suitcase
And head on up the road
