Risin' Water Blues

Yeah, the water keep rising high

But we shall be strong

Yeah, the water keep rising high

But we keep holding on

Relief is on the way

Yeah, it won't be very long

Somebody hear my plea

Just don't let me die

Yeah, it's trying to get the best of me, babe

That ain't no devil lie

Find me some dry land

I can hide from this black hole sky

Yeah, water keep rising high

Yeah, the water keep rising high

Rising high

Rising high

Rising high

Rising high

My guitar and my good book

Eight feet under me

Only thing I ever took

Is all eight feet under me

I don't owe nothing no more

Just go on and lay my feet

Don't know nothing no more

Go on and lay my feet

Water keep rising high

Rising high, babe

Rising high

Rising high

Did all I'm supposed to do

Told that devil goodbye

Sold every pill

Six years of praying

Who was I fooling, too?

Rising high, babe

Rising high, babe

Ow
