Well, there's floodin' down in Texas
All of the telephone lines are down
Well, there's floodin' down in Texas
All of the telephone lines are down
And I've been tryin' to call my baby
Lord and I can't get a single sound

Well, dark clouds are rollin' in
Man I'm standin' out in the rain
Well, dark clouds are rollin' in
Man I'm standin' out in the rain
Yeah, flood water keep a rollin'
Man it's about to drive poor me insane

Well, I'm leavin' you baby
Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well, I'm leavin' you baby
Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well, back home I know floods and tornados
Baby, the sun shines every day
