[Spoken:] 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 |

Listen down child, please take a fool's advice
Listen down child, please take a fool's advice Don't ever let no one woman, Man misuse you twice Every time she smiles, says she don't love no one but you Everytime she smiles, says she don't love no one but you You better watch out buddy boy, Little girl love to drop a chunk on you I tried so hard to not even think about my past life I tried so hard even think about my past life Because I don't want to ever ever make a mistake in life Baby, I and you could be so happy, We can be so lovin' tonight From now on darling, we can be so happy Be so loving from now on Because if I ever make a mistake in life, I know I'd ruin my happy home |

Good luck finding the real Hooker's one ...I couldn't! (Parker / Charles) We'll meet again don't know where don't know when But I know we'll meet again some sunny day Keep smiling true just like you always do Till the blue skies make the dark clouds fade away Some sunny day We'll meet again don't know where don't know when But I know we'll meet again some sunny day We'll meet again don't know where don't know when But I know we'll meet again some sunny day Keep smiling true just like you always do Till the blue skies make the dark clouds fade away Some sunny day |

I ain't nothin' but a country boy
Driftin' from town to town I ain't nothin' but a country boy Driftin' from town to town Got no place, ooh yeah To call my home Sometime in travellin' I travel when nights are blue Sometime my night My night so dark and blue But I keep on travellin' No place to lay my worried head I'm just a country boy Driftin' from town to town Driftin' from town to town I ain't got no place To lay my worried head, baby Sometime I lay down on the highway I cry to take my rest I hear a freight train howlin' I drown my head and run I'm just a country boy Driftin' from town to town, have mercy Now one night I was travellin' I saw a light in the winter I was so cold at night And my clothes were soakin' wet I walked on to the door I knocked on the door A little girl come to the door She said, "Mister, what do you want" I said, "It's cold outside, baby" She looked at me and said "Come on in, I wanna talk to you" I got a brother who left home He was twelve years old Just like the prodigal son I know you'd find him |
