歌曲歌詞
Backwater rising
Southern peoples can't make no time
I said
Backwater rising
Southern peoples can't make no time
And I can't get no hearing
From that Memphis girl of mine
Water in Arkansas
People screaming in Tennessee
Oh people screaming in Tennessee
If I don't leave Memphis
Backwater spill all over poor me
People since its raining
It has been for nights and days
People since its raining
Has been for nights and days
Thousands people stands on the hill
Looking down were they used to stay
Children stand there screaming mama
We ain't got no home
Oh mama we ain't got no home
Papa says to the children
Backwater left us all alone
Backwater rising
Come in my windows and door
The backwater rising
Come in my windows and door
I leave with a prayer in my heart
Backwater won't rise no more
