โหลดเพลง mp3 The Week the River Raged - Sara Evans

sara evans-the week the river raged
The river ran through howard county
It was the life blood of the land
It make fields of green tobacco
Aching backs and callused hands

Mama talked of a coming battle

That the women folk had to fight

cause the good lord owned the daytime
But the devil seemed to own the night

Well, it came up out of nowhere

From a dark and bitter seed

It was the roughest kind of roadhouse
And a most unwanted weed
It drew the men folk like a magnet

The women knew what they had to do

So they put it in the hands of jesus

cause they knew that hed come through
And the rains came and the river swelled
And the more they prayed the more it fell
When the levies broke everybody saw
The awesome power of god
Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came
To bring a brighter day

cause when the flood hit howard county

All the sins were washed away

Now the mothers tell the story

Of the week that the river raged

Its the passing of the wisdom

To the ears of tender age

Better walk the straight and narrow
Better keep a watchful eye
cause theres a symbol of the wrath of heaven
In every dark cloud in the sky
And the rains came and the river swelled
And the more they prayed the more it fell
When the levies broke everybody saw
The awesome power of god
Then the clouds rolled back and the rainbow came
To bring a brighter day

cause when the flood hit howard county
all the sins were washed away

then the clutds rolled back and the rainbow came
to bring a brighter day

cause when the floos hit howard country
all the sins were washed away

cause when the floos hit howard country
All the sins were washed away
