[00:00.00] 作曲 : Bettis, Evans, Rushing
[00:00.37] sara evans-the week the river raged
[00:14.61] The river ran through howard county
[00:18.10] It was the life blood of the land
[00:23.16] It make fields of green tobacco
[00:26.65] Aching backs and callused hands
[00:29.53]
[00:30.21] Mama talked of a coming battle
[00:32.83]
[00:33.58] That the women folk had to fight
[00:36.45]
[00:37.01] cause the good lord owned the daytime
[00:40.44] But the devil seemed to own the night
[00:46.87]
[00:49.12] Well, it came up out of nowhere
[00:51.99]
[00:52.49] From a dark and bitter seed
[00:56.73]
[00:57.48] It was the roughest kind of roadhouse
[01:01.10] And a most unwanted weed
[01:04.47] It drew the men folk like a magnet
[01:07.15]
[01:07.71] The women knew what they had to do
[01:10.21]
[01:11.46] So they put it in the hands of jesus
[01:14.26]
[01:14.83] cause they knew that hed come through
[01:19.88] And the rains came and the river swelled
[01:23.69] And the more they prayed the more it fell
[01:26.68] When the levies broke everybody saw
[01:30.43] The awesome power of god
[01:33.55] Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came
[01:37.29] To bring a brighter day
[01:41.28]
[01:42.10] cause when the flood hit howard county
[01:44.96]
[01:45.59] All the sins were washed away
[01:51.14]
[02:01.25] Now the mothers tell the story
[02:03.87]
[02:04.56] Of the week that the river raged
[02:08.99]
[02:09.62] Its the passing of the wisdom
[02:12.61]
[02:13.17] To the ears of tender age
[02:15.97]
[02:16.60] Better walk the straight and narrow
[02:20.10] Better keep a watchful eye
[02:23.28] cause theres a symbol of the wrath of heaven
[02:26.71] In every dark cloud in the sky
[02:32.02] And the rains came and the river swelled
[02:35.64] And the more they prayed the more it fell
[02:38.75] When the levies broke everybody saw
[02:42.44] The awesome power of god
[02:45.74] Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came

[02:57.67] all the sins were washed away
[03:03.29]
[03:16.70] then the clutds rolled back and the rainbow came
[03:20.45] to bring a brighter day
[03:24.60]
[03:25.32] cause when the floos hit howard country
[03:28.62] all the sins were washed away
[03:32.74]
