I told her I didn‘t really care High water everywhere I‘m gettin‘ up in the morning, I believe I‘ll dust my broom Keeping away from the women, I‘m giving them lots of room Thunder rollin‘ over Clarksdale, everything a-lookin‘ blue I just can‘t be happy, love, unless you‘re happy too It‘s bad out there High water everywhere.
