Hurricane
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
- Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
- I hear the south wind moan
- The bridges getting lower
- Shrimp boats coming home
- The old man down in the Quarter
- Slowly turns his head
- Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle
- And this is what he said
- I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
- Underneath the Louisiana moon
- I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
- They come around every June
- High black water a devil's daughter
- She's hard she's cold and she's mean
- But nobody taught her it takes a lot of water
- To wash away New Orleans
- Man came down from Chicago
- He gonna set that levee right
- He says
- It needs to be at least three feet higher
- It won't make it through the night
- But the old man down in the Quarter
- He said don't you listen to that boy
- The water be down by the morning
- And he'll be back to Illinois
- I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
- Underneath the Louisiana Moon
- I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
- They come around every June
- High black water a devil's daughter
- She's hard she's cold and she's mean
- But nobody taught her it takes a lot of water
- To wash away New Orleans
- Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
