Levee Seven (Single Version) Lyrics

The heavens rained down

Some said Judgement Day

Were that true, I figure

Some how more water would be coming my way

Levee six started to fail

Levee three gone, and it washed out Campton

All that's left is one earthen wall

We pack and we pray, please save

Levee Seven

So Mama grabbed the Bible

Photos saved by my wife

Load up a truck, load up a boat

Oh, Lord, how best to leave this life

Levee six is now no more

That put paid to all might have beens

Levee Seven goes, Levee Seven gone

Oh damn the rain that damned

Levee Seven

The rain will stop; people will come

So-called leaders and those famous-fors

They come to pity, they come to be gone

'Cause water hazards wreck golf scores

Levee six is gonna be rebuilt

And there's loans for all the folks of Campton.

All we had is now downstream

So seek you me in the mud that was

Levee Seven
