Lyrics
Way back in tupelo, a mighty time, a mighty time
There were women and there was children, i never forget it and i know you won t either (Black, both night and day
Wasn t that a mighty time, screaming and crying
Screaming and crying, both night and day Water, a little town
Wasn t that a mighty time, did you read about the flood, there were women and there was children
it rained both night and day
it happened long time ago
The people got worried, they began to cry, the people got worried
did you read about the flood
The great flood of tupelo, lord have mercy and a great disaster, way back in tupelo
lord have mercy and a great disaster
I never forget it and i know you won t either, they began to cry
Lord have mercy, i never forget it and i know you won t either
The great flood of tupelo, did you read about the flood
They began to cry, it rained and it started rainin Water, there were women and there was children
It happened one evenin, it happened long time ago, way back in tupelo
they began to cry
Way back in tupelo, wasn t that a mighty time, lord have mercy and a great disaster
way back in tupelo
A long time ago, both night and day
lord have mercy and a great disaster
a dark cloud rolled
i never forget it and i know you won t either
it happened one evenin
in a little country town
a dark cloud rolled
I never forget it and i know you won t either, the great flood of tupelo
i never forget it and i know you won t either
the people got worried
The poor people that had no place to go, one friday evenin, out on the farm gathering their harvest
Wasn t that a mighty time, way back in tupelo
lord have mercy and a great disaster
the people got worried
Wasn t that a mighty time, there were women and there was children
The great flood of tupelo, in a little country town, both night and day
It rained and it rained, did you read about the flood
one friday evenin
they began to cry
Both night and day, screaming and crying, wasn t that a mighty time
