Katrina - The Aftermath

ANDRE LE ROUX DU TOIT

When I went down to the river today, oh mama I began to pray
When I went down to the river today, oh mama no music played
When the river came down on us today, brothers and sisters we began to pray
When the river came down on us today, oh mama no music played

Hear now mama I tell you no lies, today was the day that the music died
Brothers and sisters I tell you no lies, today was the day that the music died

Do you believe in rock 'n roll, do you believe in Levi jeans?
Have you heard about the trouble in downtown New Orleans?
They say the Emperor strummed guitar, all the politicians lied
There was no one there to lend a hand the day the music died

Do you remember New Orleans and do you really care?
It was the city where the blues was born, the cradle of despair
Now it's halfway under water and no one's jamming there no more
There was no place to run and hide the day the music died
The day the music died

Now there's destruction on the planet, a deathly silence reigns the earth
White noise and elevator music is drowning everything of worth
All the songs we used to sing, all those melodies we knew
All those riffs and licks and choruses that meant so much to me and you
Might soon be all forgotten if what I say is true
There was death and terror far and wide when mothers wept and babies cried
The day the music died

What's the matter with America, what's happened to the dream?
All those pledges of allegiance have turned into a scream
We built this city for destruction, there was no refuge from the tide
We had no melody left to play the day the music died

We had no melody left to play the day the music died
The day the music died
