Koos Kombuis - Katrina - The Aftermath songtekst

Je score:

(Choir)

When I went down to the river today

Oh Mama I began to pray

When I went down to the river today

Oh Mama no music played



When the river came down on us today

Brothers and sisters we began to pray

When the river came down on us today

Oh Mama no music played



Hear now Mama I tell you no lies

Today was the day that the music died

Brothers and sisters I tell you no lies

Today was the day that the music died...



(Koos)

Do you believe in rock 'n' roll?

Do you believe in Levi jeans?

Have you heard about the trouble

In downtown New Orleans?



They say the Emperor strummed guitar

While the politicians lied

There was no one there to lend a hand

The day the music died



Do you remember New Orleans

And do you really care?

It was the city where the blues was born

The cradle of despair



Now it's halfway under water

And no one's jamming there no more

There was no place to run and hide

The day the music died

The day the music died



(Choir)

Heeeyyy x 4



(Koos)

Now there's destruction on the planet

A deadly silence reigns the Earth

White noise and elevator music

Is drowning everything of worth



All the songs we used to sing

All those melodies we knew

All those riffs and licks and choruses

That meant so much to me and you



Might soon be all forgotten

If what I say is true

There was death and terror far and wide

When mothers wept and babies cried

The day the music died



What's the matter with America?

What's happened to the dream?

All those pledges of allegiance

Have turned into a scream



We built this city for destruction

There was no refuge from the tide

We had no melody left to play

The day the music died



(Choir)

Heeeyyy x 9



(Koos)

We had no melody left to play

The day the music died

The day the music died
