My folks own the land round here And our big old house now for some fifty odd years We'd all seen a few rough days But I never dreamed I'd watch it all get swept away No one knows what causes angry rain The water rushed right through this town just like a great big train Years of hard work and memories Are floatin? down big river on their way out to sea After the flood After the flood The land it washed away Felt like my flesh and blood I'd rather be shovelin' Through the slush and mud Than to leave my home where I grew up Life goes on after the flood The Clover Inn Bar was hit pretty hard The piano's lyin? in the street broken apart My favorite old oak tree's rooted up But I'll plant myself a new one after the flood After the flood After the flood The land it washed away Felt like my flesh and blood I'd rather be shovelin' Through the slush and mud Than to leave my home where I grew up Life goes on after the flood A place to call your very own means so much Though it's a little soggy After all the water's gone I'll scrub it clean and make it home again A natural disaster can't hold nothin' on me Their quakin' out west and freezin' back east So I think I'll stick around And show a little faith in a weary town After the flood After the flood The land it washed away Felt like my flesh and blood I'd rather be shovelin' Through the slush and mud Than to leave my home where I grew up Life goes on after the flood After the flood After the flood The land it washed away Felt like my flesh and blood I'd rather be shovelin' Through the slush and mud Than to leave my home where I grew up Life goes on after the flood
