My House On Charlotte Street Washed Away
Played to the tune of "My Oklahoma home", by Bruce Springsteen.
when my gCreat aunt Jean died
it was Fher house that I Ceyed
moved my stuff in almost straight Gaway
I put Cdown new fancy floors
and Fpainted walls and Cdoors
making the Gplace mine to Cstay.
it washed Faway
it washed Caway
my house on Charlotte street it washed aGway
seCwage came up the drain
'cause there Fwas a bit of Crain
and the pump station wasn't Gturned on anyCway
I had lCots of dear things there
Mr Finsurance man I Cswear
those 16 play-stations are deGstroyed
and that Cantique Toby jug
not to Fmention my cashmereC rug
and even all my Gdoggies little Ctoys
they washed Faway
they washed Caway
everything that I held dGear
the Cfloors have started lifting
and I Fneed a brand new Ckitchen
and lots of Febreeze to make the Gbad smell disapCpear
well I Cmoved to higher ground
with what Fsalvage I had Cfound
just this guitar and my dog popGpy
and I Cwrote down this hear song
because the Fdays are awful lCong
when all your stuff has been Gwashed out to Csea
it washed Faway
it washed Caway
because of the bloody waterG-board
I spenCd my time driving round
stickFing to higherC ground
I think I saw my house Gfloat past GreeCnore
this has Chappened thrice before
and I'm Fsure it will happen Cmore
I've photos taken so the damage can beG seen
I'mC going to sue the board
and Fwith my nice reCward
I might just buy myGself a submaCrine
