Songs Title：louisiana 1927

What has happened down here, is the winds have changed

Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain

It rained real hard, and it rained for a real long time

Six feet of water in the streets of evangeline

The river rose all day, the river rose all night

Some people got lost in the flood, some people got away alright

The river had busted through clear down to placker mine

Six feet of water in the streets of evangeline

Louisiana, louisiana
Theyre trying to wash us away, theyre trying to wash us away

Oh louisiana, louisiana
Theyre trying to wash us away, theyre trying to wash us away

President coolidge come down, in a railroad train

With his little fat man with a note pad in his hand
President say little fat man, oh isnt it a shame,

What the river has done to this poor farmers land

Oh louisiana, louisiana

Theyre trying to wash us away, youre trying to wash us away

Oh louisiana, oh louisiana

Theyre trying to wash us away, oh lord, theyre trying to wash us away
Theyre trying to wash us away, theyre trying to wash us away
