I woke up this morning, I couldn’t even get out of my door
Said this wild water got me covered, and I ain’t got no place to go Now I hear my mama crying, but I just can’t help myself
Now this wild water keep on rising, I got to get help from someone else
Now good morning Mr wild water, why did you stop in my front door
Says you reaches from Cairo, clean down to the Gulf of Mexico
Now don’t you hear your mother crying, weeping and moaning all night long
Because old man wild water done been here, took her best friends and gone
Now look a‑here Mr wild water, why do you treat me so doggone mean
Says you took my house out of Cairo, carried it down in New Orleans
