Flood Water Songtext
von Eric Bibb

Flood water, spreadin′ all around
Flood water, spreadin' all around
People everywhere tryin′ to make higher ground

Many met their maker in a watery grave
Many met their maker in a watery grave
If your neighbor had a boat, well, ya mighta been saved
Mighta been saved


Bibles floatin' in the water, had to leave it all behind
Bibles floatin' in the water, had to leave it all behind
Sister had a vision, church paid her no mind
Paid her no mind

People straddlin′ their rooftops, water reachin′ to their knees
People straddlin' their rooftops, water reachin′ to their knees
Heard the preacher holler, "Lord, Lord, Lord, have mercy if You please!"

Don't you know it rained, Noah, where were you?
Don′t you know it rained, Noah, where were you?
Cows couldn't swim, drownin′ two by two

Flood water far as my eyes could see
Flood water, as far as my eyes could see
Nineteen hundred, twenty-seven, never leave my memory
Never leave my memory, hmm
