| [00:07.02] |
My Lord how the rains came down |
| [00:12.01] |
|
| [00:14.39] |
The waters made a mighty sound |
| [00:16.65] |
|
| [00:22.14] |
When the levees broke that day |
| [00:24.33] |
|
| [00:29.83] |
Washin' all those souls away |
| [00:31.70] |
|
| [00:33.71] |
The whole world stood to watch us drown |
| [00:36.52] |
|
| [00:37.14] |
But we took it to a higher ground |
| [00:39.33] |
|
| [00:43.46] |
It takes more than a hurricane |
| [00:45.58] |
|
| [00:47.77] |
To empty out the Pontchartrain |
| [00:49.89] |
|
| [00:53.14] |
Long ago we broke the chains |
| [00:55.52] |
In New Orleans New Orleans |
| [00:59.52] |
When Brother Bill and Sister Nell |
| [01:01.46] |
|
| [01:03.14] |
Are singing like a ringing bell |
| [01:05.21] |
|
| [01:06.90] |
Then you'll know all is well |
| [01:10.52] |
In New Orleans New Orleans |
| [01:13.18] |
|
| [01:30.55] |
Bring it all, fire and flood |
| [01:33.74] |
Fill the rivers up with mud |
| [01:37.55] |
To cut and run ain't in our blood |
| [01:39.80] |
|
| [01:41.46] |
We are New Orleans |
| [01:46.09] |
So baby let the life roll on |
| [01:49.40] |
|
| [01:53.28] |
The blues were made to make us strong |
| [01:56.15] |
|
| [02:00.72] |
We're walkin' in a brighter day |
| [02:03.28] |
|
| [02:08.41] |
Nothin' can get in our way |
| [02:09.97] |
|
| [02:12.79] |
The whole world stood to watch us drown |
| [02:16.79] |
But we took it to a higher ground |
| [02:18.66] |
|
| [02:22.66] |
It takes more than a hurricane |
| [02:27.41] |
To empty out the Pontchartrain |
| [02:29.03] |
|
| [02:30.41] |
Long ago we broke the chains |
| [02:32.53] |
|
| [02:34.04] |
In New Orleans New Orleans |
| [02:37.19] |
|
| [02:38.24] |
Long ago we broke the chains |
