Wood Brothers, The - River Takes The Town Lyrics
I hope the levee in Shreveport does what it's s'posed to do
Cuz the rain keeps comin', yeah the rain keeps comin'
I must've called you 99 times but I couldn't get through
And the rain keeps comin', yeah the rain keeps comin'
And the rain keeps comin', yeah the rain keeps comin'
Nothin's ever for certain 'til the levee breaks down
The water comes in and the river, the river takes the town
There's a shelter at the high school gym, they got blankets and food
But you won't sleep easy, no you won't sleep easy
It's been a few days since I heard any word from you
No and I don't sleep easy, no I don't sleep easy
And the rain keeps comin', yeah the rain keeps comin'
And the rain keeps comin', yeah the rain keeps comin'
The water comes in and the river, the river takes the town
And the river takes the town
Yeah the river takes the town
The river takes the town
There's a number you can call if your house get's washed away
But it'll never be the same, no it'll never be the same
Since you held my hand and kissed me on the very first day
No I'll never be the same, no I'll never be the same
And the rain keeps comin' (never be the same), and the rain keeps comin' (never be the same)
And the rain keeps comin' (I'll never be the same), and the rain keeps comin'
And the rain keeps comin' (I'll never be the same), and the rain keeps comin' (never be the same)
And nothin's ever for certain 'til the levee breaks down
The water comes in and the river, the river takes the town
The river takes the town
The river takes the town
The river takes the town

The best band in the world !! Discoverd in 2006 and since then i can not live without it !!I hope to see you someday in France ...
🖕🖕🏻🖕🏼🖕🏽🖕🏾🖕🏿 to the person that 👎🏾 this song.
The first time I heard this was live in Macon Ga. it's my favorite song ATM. I've seen them 3 times and cannot wait until I get the chance again.
Saw them live yesterday in Baton Rouge and they started with this song no one had heard before. Such a tentative crowd feeling every word after dealing with record flooding all throughout Louisiana/ Texas this past year.
I had this song on repeat for a couple of hours. The song writing is amazing. Then the subtle way the temp picks up, it's almost like trying to control your passion. Great song! Great show in Dallas 12/05/17 by the way!
Oh soooo good 😍
Lovee this musiccc💗
