Rising High Water Blues 歌词
Rising High Water Blues - Ramblin' Jack Elliott
Backwater rising southern people can't make no time
Backwater rising southern people can't make no time
And I can't get no hearing from that Memphis girl of mine
Water in Arkansas people screaming in Tennessee
Water in Arkansas people screaming in Tennessee
If I don't leave Memphis backwater spill all over poor me
People since its raining it has been for nights and days
People since its raining has been for nights and days
Thousands people stands on the hill
Looking down were they used to stay
Children stand there screaming mama we ain't got no home
Children stand there screaming mama we ain't got no home
Papa says children backwater left us all alone
Backwater rising come in my windows and door
Backwater rising come in my windows and door
I leave with a prayer in my heart backwater won't rise no more
