Buried Above Ground

Out in the gulf of mexico
A newborn hurricane
Can't make its mind up where to go
Man, i feel the same
I'm going back to new orleans
Where the dark clouds know my name

Oh and i live with the shadows
That follow me around
And i made friends with the sorrow
That tries to pull me down
And i'll be running like the river
'Till i'm buried above ground
Buried above ground

Don't try to tell me about the devil
Man, i live below sea level

And as the rain keeps falling
The lights are going out
Darling meet me at the altar
And wear your wedding gown
Oh and you know that i will love you
Till i'm buried above ground
Buried above ground

Don't try to tell me bout the devil
