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
