Backwater Blues Lyrics - One Kind Favor - B.b. King

It rained five days 

The sky has turned black as night 

Oh, it rained five days 

And the sky has turned black as night 

And there's trouble takin' place 

Way down in the lowlands tonight 

I woke up this mornin' 

And I couldn't get out of my front door 

I woke up this mornin' 

And I couldn't get out of my front door 

It was so much trouble 

Make a poor man wonder where he wanna go

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

They rowed a little boat 

About five miles 'cross the pond 

They rowed a little boat 

About five miles 'cross the pond 

I packed up all of my things and threw 'em in 

Boys and the boat rowed along 

I climbed up on the high lonely hill 

Oh, I climbed up on the high oh, lonely hill 

And I looked down at the house 

Baby, where I used to live 

Backwater blues caused me 

To pack my things and go 

The backwater blues caused me 

To pack my things and go 

'Cause my house fell down 

And I can't live there no more 

Yeah, when it's thunderin' and lightnin' 

And the rain begin to pour 

When it's thunderin' and lightnin' 

And the wind begin to blow 

There are so many poor people 

That didn't have no place to go
