Katrina Katrina
 
Am
As darknesss fell on New Orleans
         C
The storm came from the sea
Am
People begged for help in their moment of need,
C                         E
but the city fell to its knees

Am
As the water began to rise
       C
the people were trapped inside
Am
the levy spilled over 
C                E
and many began to cry

Chorus
E  F
Katrina, Katrina
         C
Your mother taught you well
G
She sent to the Gulf Shore states
  AM                 E
To create a living hell

E  F
Katrina, Katrina
      C
We know you pretty well
G
The next time you send your sister here
        Am             E
We'll fight back like hell

AM
Mankind must remember
C
as mighty as he is
AM
Mother nature will always win
C               E
and devastate again



The president sent all his men
To rebuild the city again
but Mother nature will return
and many will never learn

America stands united
The people really care
But when Mother nature wants her way
You better be prepared

Guitar Solo.......................

The mayor pointed fingers
he blamed everyone he could
he should have got on that school bus
and drove the whole neighborhood

The governor will build the shore
they'll gamble in Biloxi
It'll only be a few more years
Before they’re all in tears

Chorus

How did all the reporters
get in and out so well
While everyone else was caught
in such a living hell

We had a lot of heroes
a lot of good and bad
when I think of all the racial hate
It really makes me mad

The man in charge of FEMA
made a lot of mistakes
They finally asked him to step down
and sent him on his way

They ordered the city to evacuate
they said it was too unsafe
Some people wanna come back
and some wanna stay away

Chorus

What will happen to New Orleans
Will we see a Mardi Gras
I guess we'll just have to wait and see
for what  comes along

Chorus
