Louisiana 1972 Songtext

Louisiana 1972 Songtext

What has happened down here is the winds have changed
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain
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 have busted through clear down to Plaquemines
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangelne


Louisiana, Louisiana
They′re tyrin' to wash us away
They′re tryin' to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin′ to wash us away
They′re tryin' to wash us away

President Coolidge came down in a railroad train
With a little fat man with a note-pad in his hand
The President say, "Little fat man isn′t it a shame what the river has done
To this poor crackers land."

Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin′ to wash us away
They're tryin′ to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They′re tryin′ to wash us away
They're tryin′ to wash us away
They're tryin′ to wash us away
