[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Well, it's floodin' down in Texas
All of the telephone lines are down
Well, it's floodin' down in Texas
All of the telephone lines are down
And I been tryin' to call my baby
Lord, and I can't get a single sound

[Verse 2]
Well, dark clouds are rollin'
Man, and I'm standin' out in the rain
Well, dark clouds are rollin'
Man, and I'm standin' out in the rain
Yeah, flood water keep a-rollin'
Man, it's about to drive poor me insane

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Well, I'm leavin' you baby
Lord, and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well, I'm leavin' you baby
Lord, and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well, back home there're no floods or tornadoes
Babe, and the sun shines on every day
