There?s a storm brewin over on the sea
It?s a thousand miles out & its headed toward New Orleans
They?re warning all the people on the TV screen
It?s a cat 5 stay alive get out of the city
But the poor had no cars and the city buses set
Mayor Ray Nagin turned down Amtrack out of pride I guess
FEMA had a plan but the leaders were asleep
And in one sad morning a 1000 people deceased
Chorus:
Katrina, Katrina sounds so sweet
Who was the fool who named this thing
Hells Coming , People running trying to flee
From the killing machine
But the eye missed the city and it turned to the east
Hit Biloxi Mississippi knocked it off its feet
The History of that town is gone for now
Its knocked down to the ground flat as can be
Oh Katrina, Katrina there is death in your wind
Blew down Biloxi like a bowling pin
Twistin, turnin, turbine of steam
it?s a killin machine
Louisiana thought it spared its prized City
But the water rose up and ran down the Mississippi
Broke all the levies and flooded New Orleans
Left the young and old with no way to flee
Katrina, Katrina sounds so sweet
Who was the fool who named this thing
Hells Coming , People running trying to flee
From the killing machine
