Lyrics

Money For Floods
(Richard Shindell)

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 fields

Everyone knows that 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
Him and the Governor walked all around
My sister broke down, he gave her hug
He told her he'd do everything that he could

'Cause everyone knows that rivers will swell
But they always find money
Thye always find money
They always find money for floods

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
But the bigger my belly, the faster he ran

Everyone knows that rivers will swell
But they always find money
They always find money
They always find money for floods

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 fields
