Lyrics

Did you read about the flood
A long time ago
I a contry town
Way back in the East
Tupelo, Mississippi

One friday evening
A dark cloud rolled
Start to raining
It rained and it rained
Both night and day

The people of Tupelo
Begin to get worried
So Lord have mercy
Who can we turn to now

Women and children
Screaming and crying
So Lord have mercy
What can we do now

I never will
Forget that day
No town
Tupelo, Mississippi

It rained
Both night and day
The people of Tupelo
Hell
Who can to turn to

It rained
It rained both night and day
Rained, rained, rained
Both night and day
