   What has happened down here is the wind has changed
A5               C5                      C5             G5   C5 G5
   Clouds rolled in from the north and it starts to rain
G5                B5                     *E5 LINK
  It rained real hard and it rained for a real long time
A5                       C5              G5      C5 G5 C5 C5
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
 

G5            B5                   *E5 LINK
   The river rose all day the river rose all night
A5                C5               C5                G5       C5  G5
  Some people got lost in the flood   some people got away all right
G5               B5                         *E5 LINK
  The river had busted through clear down to Plaquemine
A5                       C5              G5      C5 G5  C5 C5  [ G5 ]
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline      [Loui--   siana]

   President Coolidge came down in a railroad train
       A5                    C5            C5    G5       C5  G5
With a little fat man with a notepad in his hand

What the river has done to this poor crackers' land?"     [Loui--   siana]
