Joan Baez - Money for Floods lyrics

[Joan Baez - Money for Floods lyrics]

My name is Eliza i live by the river
My daughter Louise will be three in July
If July ever comes it's beginning to feel
Like the water will never
Surrender the field

Everyone knows rivers will swell
But they always find money
They always find money they always find
Money for floods the President came
In a green helicopter he and the Governor
Walked all around my sister broke down
And he gave her a hug and told her he'd do
Everything that he could

Everyone knows rivers will swell
But they always find money
They always find money they always find

When I was sixteen i went out with a boy
I'd tell you his name
If I thought it would help
He told me he loved me and tossed me a girl
The bigger my belly the faster he ran

Everyone knows rivers will swell
But they always find money
They always find money they always find
