Way down in Lula, hard livin' has done hit
|
Lord, your drought come an' caught us, an' parched up all the tree
|
|
Aw, she stays over in Lula, bid that ol' town goodbye
|
Stays in Lula, bidding you the town goodbye
|
'Fore I would come to know the day, oh, the Lula well was gone dry
|
|
Lord, there're citizens around Lula, aw, was doin' very well
|
Citizens around Lula, aw, was doin' very well
|
Now they're in hard luck together, 'cause rain don't pour nowhere
|
|
I ain't got no money and I sure ain't got no hope
|
I ain't got no money and I sure ain't got no hope
|

|
Boy, they tell me the country, Lord, it'll make you cry
|
Lord, country, Lord, it'll make you cry
|
Most anybody, Lord, hasn't any water in the bayou3
|

|
Lula men, oh, puttin' Lula men down
|
Lord, you outta been there, Lord, the womens all leavin' town
