Pikeville Flood

Run for your life boys, there’s nothing left to do
The Pikeville Dam is cavin' in and the water’s comin' through
The river’s been a-risin' and the rain’s still comin' down
For fourteen days and nights It’s gonna wash away the town
Chorus
So let her roll
Roll on muddy dream
Let her roll, takin' everything
It’s washed away the houses, now the road is almost gone
Ain’t nothin' here but the dyin' and dead
and the trail of a mighty storm
I had a lovin' family, lord, I had a lovin' wife
Till the Chickasaw River and the wind and rain
come and robbed them of their life
Chorus
So let her roll
Roll on muddy dream
Let her roll, takin' everything
I don’t know where I’m goin, Lord, I don’t know where I’m bound
Just far away from the water’s edge and a no-good river town
So let her roll
Roll on muddy dream
Let her roll, takin' everything
So let her roll
Roll on muddy dream
Let her roll, takin' everything
Let her roll…
