Five Feet High and Rising

In the style of

Johnny Cash

Lyrics

how high's the water mama?
two feet high and risin'

how high's the water papa?
he says two feet high and risin'

we can make it to the
road in a homemade boat

that's the only thing we
got left that'll float

it's already over all
the wheat and oats

two feet high and risin'

how high's the water mama?

three feet high and risin'

how high's the water papa?
he says three feet

high and risin'

well the hives are gone
i've lost my bees

the chickens are sleepin'
in the willow trees

cow's in water up
past her knees

three feet high and risin'

how high's the water mama?

four feet high and risin'

how high's the water papa?
he says four feet

high and risin'

hey come look through
the window pane

the bus is comin' gonna
take us to the train

looks like we'll be blessed
with a little more rain

four feet high and risin'

how high's the water mama?

five feet high and risin'

how high's the water papa?
he says it's five

feet high and risin'

well the rails are washed
out north of town

we gotta head
for higher ground

we can't come back 'till
the water comes down

five feet high and risin'

well it's five feet

high and risin'
