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 photograph 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

Never let this world drag you down
