South Bound Backwater Lyrics

It's been snowing forty days : and the ground is covered
with snow
I'm snow‑bound in my cabin : and ice up around my door

I woke up this morning : couldn't even get out my door
I was snowbound in my cabin : had water seeping up
through my floor

Snow begin melting : and the rain begin to fall The backwaters done broke the levee : and I can't stay
here no more

Rowed my boat : just about four miles across the pond
Backwater done wrecked my cabin : and there's no place
that I can call my home
