Said when it rains five days and skies turn dark as night
|
There's trouble's takin' place in the lowlands at night
|
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
'Cause my house fell down, can't live there no more, no more
|
|
When it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night
|
Said when it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night
|
There's trouble's takin' place in the lowlands tonight
|
|
I woke up this mornin', can't even get out of my door
|
I woke up this mornin', can't even get out of my door
|
There's been so much trouble, make a poor boy
|
Wonder where he wanna go
|
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
'Cause my house fell down, can't go there no more, no
|
|
When it thunders and lightnin' and the wind begins to blow
|
When it thunders and lightnin' and the wind begins to blow
|
There's thousands of people ain't got no where to go, no
|
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
'Cause my house fell down, can't go there no more, no more
|
|
Oh, the rain's pourin', baby, yes
|
|
I went out to the lonesome, high old lonesome hill
|
I went out [Incomprehensible], high old lonesome hill
|
I looked down on that place where I used to live
|
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go
|
'Cause my house fell down, can't go home no more, no
|
|
And I'm backwater blues, and I'm backwater blues
|
And I'm backwater blues, and I'm backwater blues
|
Yeah, my house fell down, can't go home no more
|
No more, no more
