1
My Lord how the rains came down
2
The waters made a mighty sound
3
When the levees broke that day
4
Washin' all those souls away
5
The whole world stood to watch us drown
6
But we took it to a higher ground
7
It takes more than a hurricane
8
To empty out the Pontchartrain
9
Long ago we broke the chains
10
In New Orleans New Orleans
11
When Brother Bill and Sister Nell
12
Are singing like a ringing bell
13
Then you'll know all is well
14
In New Orleans New Orleans
15
Bring it all, fire and flood
16
Fill the rivers up with mud
17
To cut and run ain't in our blood
18
We are New Orleans
19
So baby let the life roll on
20
The blues were made to make us strong
21
We're walkin' in a brighter day
22
Nothin' can get in our way
23
The whole world stood to watch us drown
24
But we took it to a higher ground
