What's happened down here is the winds have changed |

Cloud 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 cleared down to Plaquemines |
|
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline |

|
With his little fat man with a notepad in his hand |
