Katrina
We lived on the edge of poverty, society, sobriety,
And then you came, Katrina,
And blew us all away...
We had no transportation, information, confirmation,
And then you came, Katrina,
And blew us all away...
We lived in quiet misery, our lives a muted gray,
And then you came, Katrina,
And blew us all away...
There's not a shred of hope left, we can no longer stay,
And all because, Katrina,
You blew us all away...
