[00:21.000] He was choking back the tears
[00:25.000] As he tried to tell his wife
[00:30.000] That the job he'd had for years
[00:34.000] He'd worked hard all his life
[00:40.000] That everything went south
[00:44.000] And he couldn't meet the bills
[00:49.000] And he had to sell the house
[00:54.000] That his daddy built
[00:59.000] And he'd ask how such a thing could be happening
[01:09.000] But he was sure there was nobody listening
[01:18.000] In the Gulf of Mexico
[01:22.000] Near the town of New Orleans
[01:27.000] Where all the tourists go
[01:32.000] In this land of hopes and dreams
[01:37.000] Then there came a killer storm
[01:41.000] A devastating flood
[01:46.000] And the people, they were warned
[01:50.000] That it would turn their streets to mud
[01:57.000] Sure enough, that storm took everything
[02:07.000] And it was like there was nobody listening
[02:16.000] In these days of change and mass communication
[02:23.000] Seems like no one's plugged into the sounds of desperation
[02:35.000] And they say the future's just an extension of the past
[02:44.000] And history has knack of comin' back
[03:13.000] Now the writer takes his pen
[03:18.000] And he tries to find the words
[03:22.000] Though time and time again
[03:27.000] They often go unheard
[03:32.000] And the singer sings his song
[03:37.000] And he tries to impart
[03:42.000] All the troubles goin' on
[03:47.000] Weighin' heavy on his heart
[03:52.000] But what good is the song that he has to sing
[04:04.000] When nobody's listening?
[04:11.000] But I know why he has to try to sing
[04:20.000] 'Cause he believes that somebody's listening
