The bridges are lookin' lower

Shrimp boats hurryin' home
Slowly turned his head

Took another sip ofwhiskey

Then he looked at me and said
Well lwas born in the rain

by Lake Ponchartrain

Underneath the

Louisiana Moon
INSTRUMENTAL
A man came down from Chicago
Gonna set that levee right
He said it's got to be three feet higher
Or it won't make it through the night
Gonna set that levee right

He said it's got to be three feet higher

Or it won't make it through the night
He said it's got to be three feet higher

Or it won't make it through the night
The water'll down by mornin', son

He'll be on his way to Illinois
Don't mind the strain of a hurricane
She comes around every June
That high black water,

she's the devil's daughter
Well lwas born in the rain

by Lake Ponchartrain

Underneath the

Louisiana Moon
she's mean. But we finally taught her

that it takes a lot of water

To wash away New Orleans
