Lyrics

I was sound asleep when the water didn't come
And the clouds broke open like a big bass drum
And my little tin roof made a rumbling sound
Looked out the window, Lord we're gonna drown now
Dry creek a-rising
Never seen it before
Dry creek a-rising
Gonna grab the children, kick out the door
And head for high ground and pray to the Lord
Well the horses in the pasture ain't too good
They're up to their withers in the thick red mud
And they're headed downstream toward the reservoir
But with that barbed wire fence they won't make it that far
Dry creek a-rising
Water in the cars
Dry creek a-rising
You know you make your plans and you work real hard
But the devil lives in your own backyard
There's an old red pickup and it's upside down
And a propane tank from clear across town
What's yours is mine and what's mine is yours
And there ain't much left worth nothing no more
Dry creek a-rising
Best open your eyes
Dry creek a-rising
Gonna tell you no lies
Dry creek a-rising
Gonna take you by surprise
Dry creek a-rising
May come from the ground or come from the sky
Hold on too tight you're gonna kiss it goodbye
