Git To Higher Ground

With all the record flooding back home in Iowa and Mizzurah where most of my folks are maybe a little ditty by Johnny Cash to help cheer them up.

How High is the Water Papa?

How high's the water, mama?
Two feet high and risin'
How high's the water, papa?
Two feet high and risin'

We can make it to the road in a homemade boat
That's the only thing we got left that'll float
It's already over all the wheat and the oats,
Two feet high and risin'

How high's the water, mama?
Three feet high and risin'
How high's the water, papa?
Three feet high and risin'

Well, the hives are gone,
I've lost my bees
The chickens are sleepin'
In the willow trees
Cow's in water up past her knees,
Three feet high and risin'

How high's the water, mama?
Four feet high and risin'
How high's the water, papa?
Four feet high and risin'

Hey, come look through the window pane,
The bus is comin', gonna take us to the train
Looks like we'll be blessed with a little more rain,
4 feet high and risin'

How high's the water, mama?
Five feet high and risin'
How high's the water, papa?
Five feet high and risin'

Well, the rails are washed out north of town
We gotta head for higher ground
We can't come back till the water comes down,
Five feet high and risin'

Well, it's five feet high and risin'

Columbus Junction Iowa.

In more news from the flood zone along the Iowa river we have the
"Come Hell Or High Water" marriage. A woman named Dannie Ritter put her foot down and got married despite driving 180 miles across Iowa around detours to Columbus Junction IA. That wasn't the only hurdle she had to overcome, her new husband is in the National Guard and he was called into action to help save the town from all the water.

You go girl.

Couple was last seen paddling off into the sunset.
