1
August 30th, I got the call
2
The Crescent City had taken the fall
3
As the waters rose, our people froze
4
Who will be saved, who will be blamed
5
Everyone said they'd die because of color
6
But let's forget about class and race
7
The people of the South will rise again
8
Through the heat, the water, and the haze
9
The man won't help, he left them all alone
10
As they wonder if they'll ever see their homes
11
These people are yours, these people are mine
12
It's the day the sun refused to shine
13
We'll rise again
14
We'll rise again
15
Once again, we'll see the saints march in
16
Our brothers, our sisters
17
Our parents and friends
18
Tomorrow the sun will rise again
19
The storm is gone and we will rise again
20
As a nation we all reach for the skies
21
For the lives taken, for the levees breakin'
22
Reach out your hand to help your fellow man
23
To feed the elderly, or a crying baby
24
To answer the cries of "Why didn't they save me?"
25
Some tried to make it about black and white
26
But side by side the refugees unite
27
I heard people say they should have left with what they see
28
As they watch from the comfort of their color TV
29
Maybe some day again it will be fine
30
But for now the sun refuses to shine
31
If you never saw the bayou bay
32
You'll never know what was lost that day
33
The music, the people, all are gone
34
No one knows what will happen to Mardi Gras
35
Some call it corrupt, some call it a slum
36
For me it was my second home
37
We'll rise again, we'll rise again
38
Once again, we'll see the saints march in
39
Our brothers, our sisters, our parents and friends
40
Tomorrow the sun will rise again
