Original lyrics
ENChorus:
The waters rising and the rains still coming down
Theres a river five feet deep running down main street
Grab your children and head for higher ground
Cause the dams broke loose
And the floods gonna wash away this town
In the winter of 96
Too much snow, too much rain would mix
And when that winter day turned warm
many a town will come to harm
And out on Chasebrook Road that night
Thats where some people lost their lives
One hundred feet wide and fifty feet deep Was a hole where the road used to be
Chorus
Come hell or high water
Starts meaning a whole lot more
From Walton to Schoharie County
No one knew how bad it would be
Some got out and walked away
Theres other missing to this day
Scraps of clothing and paper
Float across the water where they once were
Chorus
