Sarah Jarosz - Broussard's Lament lyrics
[Sarah Jarosz - Broussard's Lament lyrics]
Winds blew so strong then the floods came on
People cried what took so long for
Help - to come along
Answers came cheap at the break of dawn
Sound bites playin' on and on and on
They told us Thursday they would come
They told us Friday they would come
Saturday came and still the dying lived on
The missing ones were lost, not to be found
They paid the cost, you let them down
Well we said what can we do just
To make - it up to you
Oh you can try to make this up to me
All I have is lost, not much to see
They told me Thursday they would come
They told me Friday they would come
Saturday's here and I'm trying find my home
Oh the time is here, time to find my home
