Sara Evans - The Week The River Raged
Sara Evans/john Bettis/jim Rushing)
It Was The Life Blood Of The Land
It Make Fields Of Green Tobacco
The River Ran Through Howard County
Aching Backs And Callused Hands
Mama Talked Of A Coming Battle
'cause The Good Lord Owned The Daytime
That The Women Folk Had To Fight
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
It Drew The Men Folk Like A Magnet
And A Most Unwanted Weed
The Women Knew What They Had To Do
So They Put It In The Hands Of Jesus
'cause They Knew That He'd Come Through
And The Rains Came And The River Swelled
And The More They Prayed The More It Fell
The Awesome Power Of God
Then The Clouds Rolled Back And The Rainbow Came
When The Levies Broke Everybody Saw
'cause When The Flood Hit Howard County
All The Sins Were Washed Away
To Bring A Brighter Day
Now The Mothers Tell The Story
Of The Week That The River Raged
It's The Passing Of The Wisdom
Better Keep A Watchful Eye
Better Walk The Straight And Narrow
To The Ears Of Tender Age
'cause There's A Symbol Of The Wrath Of Heaven
In Every Dark Cloud In The Sky
And The More They Prayed The More It Fell
And The Rains Came And The River Swelled
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
All The Sins Were Washed Away'cause When The Flood Hit Howard County
