What has happened down here
is the winds have changed
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain
It rained real hard
and it rained for a real long time
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
The river rose all day
the river rose all night
Some people got lost in the flood
some people got away alright
The river had busted through clear down to Plackermine
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away
they're trying to wash us away
Oh Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away
they're trying to wash us away
President Coolidge come down
in a railroad train
With his little fat man with a note pad in his hand
President say little fat man,
oh isn't it a shame,
What the river has done to this poor farmer's land
Oh Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away
you're trying to wash us away
Oh Louisiana, oh Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away
oh Lord, they're trying to wash us away
They're trying to wash us away
they're trying to wash us away
The End
