A Reflection of Katrina
She's trying to wash US
away
So, WE, in Our homes, can
No longer stay
Sneaking up on US, a dirty
trick she did play
Had US like OTIS, 'sitting at
the dock of the bay'
Waiting on SALVATION, come
what may
When LIFE, as WE knew it, had
gone astray
Why Lord Why, didn't you spare
US, that day?!
(For New Orleans)
