Letra de «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 Plackermine Six feet of water In the streets of Evangeline
Louisiana, Louisiana They're trying to wash us away They're trying to wash us away Oh, Louisiana, Louisiana They're trying to wash us away They're 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 says "little fat man Oh, isn't it a shame What the river has done To this poor farmer's land"
Oh, Louisiana, Louisiana They're trying to wash us away You're trying to wash us away Oh, Louisiana, oh Louisiana They're trying to wash us away Oh, Lord, they're trying to wash us away They're trying to wash us away They're trying to wash us away
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 Plackermine Six feet of water In the streets of Evangeline
Louisiana, Louisiana They're trying to wash us away They're trying to wash us away Oh, Louisiana, Louisiana They're trying to wash us away They're 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 says "little fat man Oh, isn't it a shame What the river has done To this poor farmer's land"
Oh, Louisiana, Louisiana They're trying to wash us away You're trying to wash us away Oh, Louisiana, oh Louisiana They're trying to wash us away Oh, Lord, they're trying to wash us away They're trying to wash us away They're trying to wash us away
