Letra da Música Katrina de Hans Theessink

Katrina blew like nothing before, li'l Liza Jane
Her mighty power hit our shore, li'l Liza Jane

Cold black water reached the sky, li'l Liza Jane
When the hurricane swept the waves up high
Li'l Liza Jane

Ray Nagin said I will be straight, li'l Liza Jane
The water's rising, evacuate, li'l Liza Jane

When the levee breaks the city will drown, li'l Liza Jane
Better save your ass and leave this town, li'l Liza Jane

Oh dear Liza, li'l Liza Jane

Take a plane take a train or ride your car
li'l Liza Jane
If you're sick, if you're poor, you won't get so far
li'l Liza Jane

The poor down here and the rich on the hill, li'l Liza Jane
Better run for your life or you may get killed
Li'l Liza Jane

The winds blew fast, the winds blew strong
Li'l Liza Jane
Destroyed our houses all along, li'l Liza Jane

In the lower ninth ward I raised my family, li'l Liza Jane
Now our home is down at the bottom of the sea
Li'l Liza Jane

Oh dear Liza, li'l Liza Jane

Salty water everywhere, li'l Liza Jane
From the Mississippi river to Jackson Square
li'l Liza Jane

The president and congress in Dc, li'l Liza Jane
Don't care about us poor people way down here
li'l Liza Jane

The home of the brave and the land of the free
Li'l Liza Jane
Still a long way to go to equality
Li'l Liza Jane

Money rules and if you ain't got none, li'l Liza Jane
You're out in the jungle on your own, li'l Liza Jane

Oh dear Liza, li'l Liza Jane
