King Wilkie Savannah lyrics

Wanna lay my fields in the low country time
Where there’s not a shady bloom still up in the sky
And castles in the sand are all washed away
Wanna ride the bridges on the albacross way

Goin down to Savannah
Getting back what once was mine
Goin down to Savannah
Will you have mercy on me this time?

When the levee broke, nobody was around
You stood by watching when I fell to the ground
There’s no blood on my hands ‘cause I do what I’m told
Wanna live a lot longer now I’m feelin so old


Goin down to Savannah, get back what once was mine
Goin down to Savannah Will you have mercy on me this time?

The sun has set down over by Madoon
They’re pouring drinks down at the old pink saloon
But in my reach when the sea rises up, if it washes you away now
Honey I’d come!
Chorus
