Rebekka Bakken - Louisiana 1927
What had happened down there was the wind had changed
Clouds rolled 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
★ Verse 2 ★
The river rose all day, the river rose all night
Some got lost in the flood, some got away alright
The river busted through clear down to Plaquemine
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
★ Chorus ★
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They'rе tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
★ Verse 3 ★
Presidеnt Coolidge came down in a railroad train
With a little fat man with his notepad in his hand
President said, "Little fat man, ain't it a shame
What the river has done to this poor cracker's land?"
★ Chorus ★
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
★ Piano Solo ★
★ Chorus ★
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
