    Story Behind the Song
    true story of surviving a flood. Losing all your possessions. Later you realize that you got rid of alot of baggage.

    Lyrics
    I had grown so comfortable
    in that rut where I was living
    But somehow I just could not make a change
    But the Lord had the answer
    and he was forthcoming
    He sent the water and carried me away

    THE WATER, LORD THE WATER
    IT CAME QUICK AND LEFT NOT A TRACE
    OH THE WATER, THE MUDDY WATER
    THE WATER CAME AND CARRIED ME AWAY

    Well it rained and it rained
    for ten days straight
    and my patience had reached saturation
    but we never expected
    the river rose so fast
    We grabbed what we could
    and we ran out the door

    Well at first I was in
    a state of depression
    because I had lost all my worldly possessions
    but when I hit the raod
    with a much lighter load
    I realized just how much I had gained

    Well in the end I got the last laugh in
    when I drove on back to what muddy rim
    and threw in a few more things
    I didn't really want
    and when I got done I sat down for a smoke
    and laughed so hard I almost choked
    as I watched those old tax records
    just flooting away
