Текст песни Caroline Herring — Standing In The Water

Standing in the water

In the land of the crazies
gentlemen and ladies
I was born
I was born
long gone the fish fry
long gone the moon pie
long gone
long gone
standing in the water
my dresses soiled and seen
goodnight cottonlandia
get your ghosts off of me
Grant captured Vicksburg
Sherman shot the hummingbird
of the land
of the land
slaves pull the sack across
the weight of the albatross
in my hands
in my hands
standing in the water
my dresses soiled and seen
goodnight cottonlandia
get your ghosts off of me.
