I watched the water rise in our house
The rain poured in and washed out our stuff
My father drank from beer bottles
Then he’d say
 
We’ll walk on. Walk on. What’s done is done. Walk on my son
Never let this world, drag you down.
 
All that we had was deep in the mud
Our photographs and family treasures
My mother drank from beer bottles
Then she’d say
 
We’ll walk on. Walk on. What’s done is done. Walk on my son
Never let this world, drag you down.
 
Don’t let it bring you down
Don’t let your head drop down
Don’t let the sun go down
Don’t let your light go out
Don’t let yourself fall down
Just pick yourself up from the street
And get up on your feet…
 
…We’ll walk on. Walk on. What’s done is done. Walk on my son
Never let this world, drag you down.
