Aaron Neville - Louisiana 1927 lyrics

(Randy Newman) 

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 Plaquemines
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 say "little fat man, oh isn't it a shame, 
What the river has done to this poor CRACKER'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
