What has happened down here is the wind have changed Clouds roll in from the north and it start to rain It rained real hard and it rained for a real long time There was 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 Where the river broke through way down in Plaquemine There was six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
Louisiana, Louisiana They're tryin' to wash us away They're tryin' to wash us away Louisiana, Louisiana They're tryin' to wash us away They're tryin' to wash us away
President Coolidge come down in a railroad train With a little man with a notepad in his hand President say, "Oh, Little Man, ain't it a shame What the river has done to this poor crackers' land"
Louisiana, Louisiana They're tryin' to wash us away They're tryin' to wash us away
