My mama always taught me that good things come from adversity if we put our faith in the lord.
we couldnand't see much good in the flood waters when they were causing us to leave home,
but when the water went down, we found it had washed a load of rich black bottom dirt across our land.
the following year we had the best cotton crop weand'd ever had.
I remember hearing:
How highand's the water, mama?
two feet high and risinand'
how highand's the water, papa?
two feet high and risinand'
We can make it to the road in a homemade boat
thatand's the only thing we got left thatand'll float
itand's already over all the wheat and oats,
two feet high and risinand'
How highand's the water, mama?
three feet high and risinand'
how highand's the water, papa?
three feet high and risinand'
Well, the hives are gone,
i lost my bees
the chickens are sleepinand'
in the willow trees
cowand's in water up past her knees,
three feet high and risinand'
How highand's the water, mama?
four feet high and risinand'
how highand's the water, papa?
four feet high and risinand'
Hey, come look through the window pane,
the bus is coinand', gonna take us to the train
looks like weand'll be blessed with a little more rain,
four feet high and risinand'
How highand's the water, mama?
five feet high and risinand'
how highand's the water, papa?
five feet high and risinand'
Well the rails are washed out north of town
we gotta head for higher ground
we canand't come back till the water comes down,
five feet high and risinand'
Well, itand's five feet high and risinand'

Five feet high and rising
Five feet high and rising
