"The Flood" lyrics - CHARLES WESLEY GODWIN

CHARLES WESLEY GODWIN
"The Flood"

There is a storm brewin' in the southeast
Grandmama feels it in her bones
They're calling for the rains to pour down
On a biblical scale ain't seen since Noah was around

[Chorus:]
What would you do when the Lord calls?
Would you go over the bridge for your blood?

Got a call from my folks, said the water is rising
"There goes the fence," mama said, then the line went dead
Gotta find my way, no, I just can't stay
When the voice inside your head says you must go home

[Chorus:]
What would you do when the Lord calls?
Would you go over the bridge for your blood?

[Post-Chorus:]
Over the bridge when the Lord calls
What would you do for your blood?

With the bridge washed out over Red Creek
It's life or death and a gas pedal at your feet
Go for it with all you've got
If you live or die, all that matters is you fought
For your blood

[Chorus:]
What will you do when the Lord calls?
Will you go over the bridge for your blood?

[Refrain:]
Over the bridge for your blood
Over the bridge for your blood

[Outro:]
What will you do when the Lord calls?
For your blood, over the bridge
