Yeah, the water keep risin' high
But we shall be strong
Yeah, the water keep risin' high
But we keep holdin' on
Believers of the way
It brought me very far
Somebody hear my plea
Just don't let me die
Yeah, (they're) tryin' to get the best of me babe
But ain't no devil lie
Find me some dry land
I can't hide this black old sky
Yeah, water keep risin' high
Yeah, the water keep risin' high
Risin' high
Risin' high
Risin' high
Risin' high
My guitar and my good book
Belief and I believe
The only thing I ever took
Solid feet under me
I don't know mercy no more
Just go on and let me be
Don't know nothing no mo'
Come on and let me be
Water keep risin' high
Risin' high babe
Risin' high
Risin' high
And all that I'm supposed to do
Tell that devil goodbye
Risin' high babe
Risin' high babe
