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 |

I woke up this mornin', can't even get out of my door |

|
And I'm backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go' |

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 |

And I'm backwater blues, and |
|
I'm backwater blues |

No more, no more |
