Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, it's flooding down in Texas
All the telephone lines are down
Well, it's flooding down in Texas
And all the telephone lines are down
Well, I'm trying to call my baby
But I can't get a single sound
[Verse 2]
Well, dark clouds are rolling in
Man, I'm standing out in the rain
{???}{Dark clouds are rolling}
Man, I'm standing out in the rain
{Well, floodwaters keeps on rolling}
Man, it's about to drive me insane
[Verse 3]
Well, I'm leaving you, baby
Lord, {???} I'm going back home to stay
Well, I'm leaving you, baby
Lord, {???} I'm going back home to stay
Well, {back home, there's} no floods or tornadoes
Baby, and the sun shines every day
Written by: Joseph W. Scott, L.C. Davis, Larry Davis
