Blood and Water Mark Knopfler

[Chorus]
Blood and water, bound to overflow
Blood and water, bound to overflow
Well there's no more high water
But the old man's just waiting, I know

[Verse 1]
He was sent up on the levee
Now they've gone up country
They won't do nothing for you now
And don't go asking me, they've gone
It's all over here
Sometimes I'd see her passing
With the evening coming on
I've seen you on her pathway
I've seen you at dawn
Look over yonder at that empty shack
You know as well as I do
They ain't coming back, they're gone
It's all over here

[Chorus]
Blood and water bound to overflow
Blood and water bound to overflow
Well there's no more high water
But the old man's just waiting, I know
