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