He sits on his Porch
Stares across the street,
Water Risin' Fast
Its nearly Up to his feet.
Neighbor Passes by
Say's ""It's time to get out""
But that old man just smiles, says
""I'm gonna ride this one out""
Cause everything he owns
Lives inside this house,
And everything he stands for
He can't live with out.
To where his babies took there first steps,
And his wife took her last.
Lord how do you stop the water,
When it's there to steel your Past!
Wading through the memories
Stuck in mud and Sand,
Faded photo albums..
Of a much younger man
Kindergarten ,High School
And graduation day.
50 years of memories
Just drifting away.
With Tears Fallin Down
He takes one last look around...
