歌曲歌詞
The river ran through howard county
It was the life blood of the land
It make fields of green tobacco
Aching backs and callused hands
Mama talked of a coming battle
That the women folk had to fight
Cause the good lord owned the daytime
But the devil seemed to own the night
Well it came up out of nowhere
From a dark and bitter seed
It was the roughest kind of roadhouse
And a most unwanted weed
It drew the men folk like a magnet
The women knew what they had to do
So they put it in the hands of jesus
Cause they knew that hed come through
And the rains came and the river swelled
And the more they prayed the more it fell
When the levies broke everybody saw
The awesome power of god
Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came
To bring a brighter day
Cause when the flood hit howard county
All the sins were washed away
Now the mothers tell the story
Of the week that the river raged
Its the passing of the wisdom
To the ears of tender age
Better walk the straight and narrow
Better keep a watchful eye
Cause there's a symbol of the wrath of heaven
In every dark cloud in the sky
And the rains came and the river swelled
And the more they prayed the more it fell
When the levies broke everybody saw
The awesome power of god
Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came
To bring a brighter day
Cause when the flood hit howard county
All the sins were washed away
Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came
To bring a brighter day
Cause when the floods hit howard country
All the sins were washed away
Cause when the floods hit howard country
All the sins were washed away
