Sugarland Follow

Little Annie Vickers is boarding up windows
And her old dog is stranded on the Silos
Hey there Annie, don't even think it
So much water and you can't even drink it
Well, maybe by Christmas they'll dig up roads
Take whatever you can girl
Leave the rest for the crows
Leave the rest for the crows

Been living in Crawford for fifteen years
Nothing much ever happens 'round here
And no one believed the water would come
Til the sky grew dark and it swallowed the sun
And it rained for forty-two nights and forty-two days
And everything that we loved is floating away

Chorus:
How long 'til our dreams run dry
Don't know but we're staying
On our knees we raise our eyes
Holding on and praying to find
One blue sky

Ms. Wilson sits with an insurance adjustor
Big city boys, she never did trust 'em
Have you been getting the letters I'm sending
Cause the preacher swears that the world is ending
Well, if there's a way out, wish someone would show us
We keep looking around here for some modern day Moses

Repeat Chorus

Now we're digging in our heels hard as we can
But the backyard looks like Rio Grande
And I wonder will it wash us clean or wash us away

Repeat Chorus Twice
