Rising (Demo)

Rain rain rain wind and rain On the shores of Pontchartrain A Mississippi flood plain Hope the levees hold It's a hurricane Ride ride ride out the storm They don't scare us anymore Listen to the wind roar Just like it did So many times before Now it's rising It's rising rising It's rising high The water's rising It's rising rising It's rising high Climb climb climb up on the roof SOS to the troops Staying here was a goof They told us so Now we got proof Fly fly fly fly away Coast Guard chopper's on the way Where to now we can't say New Orleans Ain't no place to stay Now it's rising It's rising rising It's rising high The water's rising It's rising rising It's rising high Drain drain drain the city dry Tear it down and build it high Make those levees touch the sky New Orleans Must never die New Orleans Must never die And now it's rising It's rising rising It's rising high The city's rising It's rising rising It's rising high
