Backwater Blues - Johnny Silvo/Diz Disley/Andy Crowdy
When it rains five days and the skies turn black as night
When it rains five days and the skies turn black as night
Then trouble's takin' place in the lowlands at night
I woke up this morning' could not get out of my door
I woke up this morning' could not get out of my door
There's so much trouble make every man wonder what he was living for
Well they rowed a little boat five miles 'cross that pond
Though they rowed a little boat five miles 'cross that pond
I packed all my things throwed them in baby they rowed me along
I was singing in backwater blues
Backwater blues
Backwater blues
Backwater blues lala
I don't want you to know more
Backwater blues
They sail away from my door
When it thunders and lightnin' and then when the wind begins to blow
When it thunders and lightnin' then the wind they begin to blow
There's thousands of people they have no place to go
Oh backwater blues
Backwater blues
Backwater blues
Backwater blues
I don't want you know more
Backwater blues
Please stay away from my door
Don't want you know more
