High Water Everywhere

Well there's high water everywhere
Lord the river overflows
Well there's high water everywhere
Lord the river overflows
Well you go where it's high, boy
Watch you heel a country road
Well that water was a rising
Our men sinking down
Well that water was arising
Yeah and all places around
There's fifty men and children Come to sink and drown

As I come back to tell you
Spend another night alone
High water everywhere
Gonna bring an end to my happy home

Daddy come to me boy
Gonna bring me that bad news
High water everywhere
Gonna bring an end to my lonesome blues

High water everywhere
High water everywhere
High water everywhere
High water everywhere
