Tupelo (Live) - John Lee Hooker
Did you read about the flood
It happened long time ago
In a little country town
Way back in Mississippi
It rained and it rained
It rained both night and day
The people got worried
They began to cry
Lord have mercy
Where can we go now
There were women and there was children
Screaming and crying
Lord have mercy and a great disaster
Who can we turn to now but you
The great flood of Tupelo Mississippi
It happened one evenin'
One Friday evenin' a long time ago
It rained and it started rainin'
The people of Tupelo
Out on the farm gathering their harvest
A dark cloud rolled
Way back in Tupelo Mississippi hmm hmm
Wasn't that a mighty time
Wasn't that a mighty time
Wasn't that a mighty time
A mighty time that evenin'
It rained both night and day
The poor people that had no place to go hmm hmm
A little town called Tupelo Mississippi
I never forget it and I know you won't either
