The Flood
the sky is bawlin' rain is fallin'
rivers roll and overflow
a flood is come to wash away us all
listen to the wind a howlin'
soundin' like a wildcat growlin'
clearly given as a warning call
you can run but you can't hide
deep water spreadin' far and wide
and no way to escape that risin' tide
the odds are fast becoming slim
the time is now to sink or swim
a flood is come to wash away us all
the wind and rain have yet to cease
rescinded will be mankinds lease
a flood is come to wash away us all
to wash away us all!*
*inspired by all the recent rain and flooding.....rob!
