Lyrics
And the wind began to blow, where i used to live
Said they rowed a little boat, back water blues that calls me to pack my things and go back water blues that calls me to pack my things and go cause my house fell down
and the skies turned dark at night
i can t live there no more
I went out and stood up on a high old lonesome hill, i looked down on the house, in the lowland at night
I can t live there no more, i can t live there no more, and the skies turned dark at night
i woke up this mornin
Said they rowed a little boat, i went out and stood up on a high old lonesome hill Bessie, i woke up this mornin
About five miles across the farm, when it rained five days Smith, i looked down on the house
and the skies turned dark at night
There was thousands of people, said it thundered and lightnin
Said they rowed a little boat, when it rained five days, when it rained five days
enough trouble to make a poor woman
couldn t even get out of my door
Where it thundered and lightnin, and the skies turned dark at night
when it rained five days
There was trouble takin place, there was thousands of people
And the wind began to blow, said they rowed a little boat, i woke up this mornin
i woke up this mornin
and the skies turned dark at night
Trowed them in and they rowed me along, when it rained five days
I looked down on the house, i woke up this mornin Blues, and i can t live there no more
there was trouble takin place
couldn t even get out of my door
i can t live there no more
i went out and stood up on a high old lonesome hill
They had no place to go, i can t live there no more
Couldn t even get out of my door, there was thousands of people, i looked down on the house
Where it thundered and lightnin, i packed up all of my clothes
And i can t live there no more, i went out and stood up on a high old lonesome hill Backwater, where it thundered and lightnin
i woke up this mornin
wonder where she s gonna go they rowed a little boat
and the skies turned dark at night
there was trouble takin place
When it rained five days, said they rowed a little boat
