Texas Flood

Well you've heard about love givin' sight to the blind
My baby's lovin' cause the sun to shine
She's my sweet little thing, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Yeah I love my baby, heart and soul
Love like ours won't never grow old
She's my sweet little thing, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Yeah, I love my lady, she's long and lean
You mess with her, you'll see a man get mean
She's my sweet little thing, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Well I love my baby, like the finest wine
Stick with her until the end of time
She's my sweet little thing, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Yeah I love my baby, heart and soul
Love like ours won't never grow old
She's my sweet little thing, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Well there's floodin' down in Texas, all of the telephone lines are down
Well there's floodin' down in Texas, all of the telephone lines are down
And I've been tryin' to call my baby, Lord and I can't get a single sound

Well dark clouds are rollin' in, man I'm standin' out in the rain
Well dark clouds are rollin' in, man I'm standin' out in the rain
Yeah flood water keep a rollin', man it's about to drive poor me insane

Well I'm leavin' you baby, Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well I'm leavin' you baby, Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well back home I know floods and tornados, baby the sun shines every day

Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow, yeah
Everywhere the child went
The little lamb was sure to go, yeah
He followed her to school one day
And broke the teachers rule
What a time did they have
That day at school

Tisket! tasket! baby
A green and yellow basket
Sent a letter to my baby
On my way I past it

True love is gone....I's been played for a fool
True love is gone....I's been played for a fool
I'm turnin' the tables on you
You've been playin' dirty pool

You said you'd call the shots darlin'....All your friends thought that was cool...so cool baby
You said you'd call the shots darlin'....All your friends thought that was so cool
Yeah when you shot at the eight-ball baby....I knew you were playin' dirty pool

They say that life....Life is a game of give and take
They say that life....Life is a game of give and take
I'm tellin' you one thing right now little baby
I won't be the one to pay for your mistake

[Instrumental]
