《Rising High Water Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Rising High Water Blues - Ramblin' Jack Elliott

[00:00:09] Backwater rising southern people can't make no time

[00:00:21] Backwater rising southern people can't make no time

[00:00:33] And I can't get no hearing from that Memphis girl of mine

[00:00:46] Water in Arkansas people screaming in Tennessee

[00:00:58] Water in Arkansas people screaming in Tennessee

[00:01:10] If I don't leave Memphis backwater spill all over poor me

[00:01:22] People since its raining it has been for nights and days

[00:01:35] People since its raining has been for nights and days

[00:01:46] Thousands people stands on the hill

[00:01:50] Looking down were they used to stay

[00:02:34] Children stand there screaming mama we ain't got no home

[00:02:46] Children stand there screaming mama we ain't got no home

[00:02:58] Papa says children backwater left us all alone

[00:03:11] Backwater rising come in my windows and door

[00:03:23] Backwater rising come in my windows and door

[00:03:34] I leave with a prayer in my heart backwater won't rise no more
