i hope the levee in Shreveport does what it's s’posed to do
cuz the rain keeps comin', the rain keeps comin'
i must've called you 99 times but i couldn't get through
and the rain keeps comin', the rain keeps comin'
the rain keeps comin’, the rain keeps comin'
nothin's ever for certain
'til the levee breaks down
the water comes in and the river
the river takes the town
there's a shelter at the high school gym they got blankets and food
but you won't sleep easy, you won't sleep easy
Its been a few days since i heard any word from you
and i don't sleep easy, i don't sleep easy
and the rain keeps comin’, the rain keeps comin’
the rain keeps comin’, the rain keeps comin'
CHORUS
there's a number you can call if your house get's washed away
but it'll never be the same, it'll never be the same
since you held my hand and kissed me on the very first day
no i’ll never be the same, no I'll never be the same
and the rain keeps comin’, the rain keeps comin'
the rain keeps comin’, the rain keeps comin'
CHORUS

Man...where have the Wood Brothers been my entire life. I just love these guys. Thanks for making my day a little bit better

Saw them live yesterday in Baton Rouge and they started with this song no one had heard before. Such a tentative crowd feeling every word after dealing with record flooding all throughout Louisiana/ Texas this past year.

Just found you after Michael Palmisano did a video on this song. Lovely stuff Fellas 👍👍👍

[@rwreckage]

Oliver, Chris, and Jano are such fantastic song writers. I can't get enough! Another classic.

I had this song on repeat for a couple of hours. The song writing is amazing. Then the subtle way the temp picks up, it's almost like trying to control your passion. Great song! Great show in Dallas 12/05/17 by the way!
