lyrics

HIGH WATER

The next door neighbor's been building an arc -
the light from heaven invades my dark.
But they don’t know that I’ve overheard -
that they’re planning to lay low the whole world.

I’ve been privy to things been said -
and by morning we’re all supposed to be dead.
But I’ve got this lil’ ol’ fishing boat -
it ain’t much but I'll bet she floats -
and I won’t be around.

I won’t be there to see your face -
as you attempt to plead your case.
Just leave me a line when it all goes down—
come hell or high water I won’t be around.

I’ll never save this whole damn town -
there’s not enough of me to go around.
When the water wants to make its way -
and the angels hold judgment day -
then I won’t be around.

I won’t be there to see your face -
as you attempt to plead your case.
Just leave me a sign when it all comes down—
come hell or high water I won’t be around.
