Kokomo Arnold - Wild Water Blues lyrics

I woke up this morning, I couldn't even get out of my door Said this wild water got me covered, and I ain't got no place to go Now I hear my mama crying, but I just can't help myself Now this wild water keep on rising, I got to get help from someone else Now good morning Mr wild water, why did you stop in my front door Says you reaches from Cairo, clean down to the Gulf of Mexico Now don't you hear your mother crying, weeping and moaning all night long Because old man wild water done been here, took her best friends and gone Now look a‑here Mr wild water, why do you treat me so doggone mean Says you took my house out of Cairo, carried it down in New Orleans
