» Rising

Verse 1:
Rain rain rain wind and rain
On the shores of Pontchartrain
A Mississippi flood plain
Hope the levees hold
Its a hurricane

Verse 2:
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

Chorus 1:
And now its rising
Its rising rising
It's rising high
The waters rising
Its rising rising
It's rising high

Verse 3:
Climb climb climb up on the roof
SOS to the troops
Staying here was a goof
They told us so
Now we got proof

Verse 4:
Fly fly fly fly away
Coast Guard choppers on the way
Where to now we cant say
New Orleans
Aint no place to stay

[Repeat Chorus 1]

Verse 5:
[Instrumental]

Verse 6:
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

Chorus 2:
And now its rising
Its rising rising
It's rising high
The citys rising
Its rising rising
It's rising high
[Repeat and fade]
