Levee Seven (Remastered)

The heavens rained down
Some said Judgement Day
Were that true, I figure
Some how more water would be coming my way

Levee six started to fail
Levee three gone, and it washed out Campton
All that's left is one earthen wall
We pack and we pray, please save Levee Seven

In the heat of summer
Well, there's skeeters and flies
When you live on the river
You know one day the water gonna rise

Levee six started to fail
Levee three gone, and it washed out Campton
All that's left is one earthen wall
We pack and we pray, please save Levee Seven

Well Mama grabbed the Bible
Photos saved by my wife
Load up a truck Load up a boat
Oh, Lord, how best to leave this life

Levee six is now no more
That put paid to all might have beens
Levee Seven goes. Levee Seven gone
Oh damn the rain that damned Levee Seven

The rain will stop; people will come
So-called leaders and those famous-fors
They come to pity, they come to be gone
'Cause water hazards wreck golf scores

Levee six is gonna be rebuilt
And there's loans for all the folks of Campton
All we had is now downstream
So seek you me in the mud that was Levee Seven

Levee Seven
The heavens rained down
The heavens rained down
Levee six started to fail
Levee three gone, and it washed out Campton
All that's left is one earthen wall
We pack and we pray, please save Levee Seven

Well Mama grabbed the Bible
