The Battle of New Orleans Lyrics & Tabs by Brother Dege
The Battle of New Orleans
guitar chords lyrics
Hold now, the water rising.
Coming as the storm arrives.
Katrina come to sink the city
Bust the levee a hundred wide.
Hold now,
Don’t break the levee down
Some come to save the city
Ruin and rage keep pouring down
Flood born of blood and pity.
The Angel of Death soon hear me now.
Hold now
Don’t break the levee down.
Who now will take
The Battle of New Orleans?
Climb toward the roofs and shelter
Who now will take
The Battle of New Orleans?
Climb toward the roofs and shelter
Raise your arms to the sky
Women, children, mothers, daughters
Fathers, sons - done left behind.
Hold now
Don’t break the levee down.
War between God and man.
Man and man with world no end.
Oh, man he chose to build a city
Of sinful mind.
God pulled it in.
Hold now.
Don’t break the levee down.
Who now will take?
The Battle of New Orleans.
