Kentucky Flood ft. John Grimm Lyrics

It was her last free day

In the mornin' sun

The waters were

Beginning to rise

Clouds were formin'

As she looked toward

The Western sky

She was simple,kind

And true

She had dreams that

No one knew

Raise a family

See her children

Learn to shine

Oh, the rains fell hard

That day

Everything was

Washed away

Now she stands there

With nothin'

On her mind

With her soul

Bowed low

She lifts her

Weary eyes

And sees the sun

Shining in the sky

A ray of hope

Flickers in her mind

Of what's to come

From what's been

Left behind mm-mm

Just another day

In the summer sun

Kentucky winds

Are blowin' again

Another day

Of life's unknowns

Letting go and

Holdin' on

Wishing for a cure

To ease her pain

She sees them

Over and over again

Her sons were cheated

Of the chance

To grow into

Young men

And her daughters into

Beautiful ladies

Her sons were cheated

Of the chance

To grow into

Young men

And her daughters

Into beautiful ladies

But that can't stop

A mama's heart

From knowing

Who they are

And who they

Would've become

No, that can't stop

A mama's heart

From knowing

Who they are

And who they

Would've become

With the tables turned

Would you be ok?

Get up, start

All over again

No matter what

Life throws your way

Live to fight

Another day

Barely holdin' on

But that's alright

There's always hope

In the darkest night

There's always hope

In the darkest night

Now she thinks

Of days gone by

Finds it hard

To laugh or cry

She just stands there

With nothin'

On her mind
