The Day the Levee Broke: Part 1
August 2005
Hurricane Katrina
wanted no man alive.
The Good Ol Boys
said Head to the Dome
For those who can't get out on your own..
and they left us here all alone.
And we are prayin
We are the United States
We will brave the wind, the storm
and the man-made mistakes.
The storm stole all our material things
But we're grateful
for the hope that life brings.
Yes, we are grateful for the hope that life brings.
