Stormwater Lyrics

Bad days are coming
Preacher said
Dark clouds dawning
Trouble up ahead
Board up you window
Take your families
Put gas in the pick up
Get out of New Orleans
U.S. Highway 61
Don't look back now
Drive until you're gone

Oh, storm water
Driving me from my home
Flee
Across the state line
Far from everything I know
Oh. storm water
Rising with the hurricane
When you're gone
From where I belong
I will be back again

No time for thinking
No time to waste
It's time enough for leaving
None to hesitate
Some folks saying
The weather man's wrong
Taking their chances
But me, I'm gonna run
All my senses are telling me
Some-thing's coming I don't wanna see

Oh, storm water
I know that you're gonna come
High
Over the levies
Blocking out the sky and sun
Oh. storm water
Sweeping us all aside
Nature's angry with the city
Only God knows why
Take U.S. Highway 61
Don't look back now
Drive until you're gone

Oh, storm water
Driving me from my home
Flee
Across the state line
Far from everything I know
Oh. storm water
Rising with the hurricane
Nature's angry with the city
God knows why
You'll be gone
From where I belong
I will be back some time
