Lyrics:
The rivers are swollen We got a flood on our hands Get out the buckets And the pots and pans Mama, put the pictures In the old wooden boat Billy, get the baby And mama's overcoat There's high ground at Grene At the old Gristmill Store We can keep everybody dry If it don't rain no more We got a flood on our hands The rain's gonna keep comin' down Has anybody talked to sister Since the lines went down? She spent the night with Mandy On the low side of town I do hope she's watchin' On the outside tonight She ain't been herself Since she lost little Dwight You don't never miss What you ain't got 'Till you wake up some morning And you've lost the whole lot We got a flood on our hands The rain's gonna keep comin' down Thank God we're all together That's all we really need You can't change the weather But you can plant new seed No life is spared To the ones who blame A god without mercy Pride without shame Like Noah of old Was put to the test To see if his faith Was deeper than the rest We got a flood on our hands And the rain's gonna keep comin' down Mama, get the shotgun And the pictures of dad Someday well look back On everything we had We got a flood on our hands The rain's gonna keep comin' down
