The water line
Is mighty high
It rained so hard
Even my tears couldn't dry
And the valley went still
And all the lines went down
The day the Mad River got a hold of this town
Chorus
And the river rolls
One foot at a time
Over the bridges
And the old water lines
But there's hope in the valley
After the hundred year flood
Because the mad Mad River
Runs in our blood
Old lady jane
She refused to go
She sat there on her porch
As the water was touching her toes
And she closed her eyes
Softly singin a tune
She said if the Mad River is goin then I'm goin too
