From the south he came ten thousand trains
Off the Gulf of Mexico
His winds blew high, had a 20-mile eye
And a belly full of H2O
Rockport mayor said get outta’ there
Before he does his harm
If you stay all I got to say
Put your ID on your arm son
Put your ID on your arm
A thief in the night
Before daylight
Harvey hit the coast
Took Rockport down to level ground
Flat as Texas toast
Lost one life thought we go off light
Then the rains came tumbling down
Harvey hurricane dumped a four-foot rain
Flooded Houston town
Lord, tried to drown old Houston town
Three nights and days it rained sideway
Houston had a problem
Call went out, a great shout out
Need more help to solve em’
Come quick, come now where you see a white towel
Its bad and we don’t mean maybe
In rode the Coast and National Guard, Texas and the Cajun navy
Lord, thank God for the Cajun navy
Swamp and Bass boats, jacked-up up trucks, Kayaks and canoes
Headed for the danger zone, cause that’s what neighbors do
Red or yellow black or white, it didn’t matter who
Want you to know that it soothed my soul, watchin’ that rainbow crew
Lawd, watching that rainbow crew
Harvey’s gone but Houston’s strong
Could’ve been much worse
Puerto Rico needs your prayers
Need your pledge and purse
Don’t forget the sunshine state
When you hit your knees tonight
And ponder on these final words
What if Al Gore’s right, law’d
What if Al Gore got it right
