The Mississippi River divides this land in two

Like the way tend to think of things, black and white, red and blue

If they can keep us fighting about marriage and god

They'll be no one left to notice if our leaders do their jobs

The truth is bigger than these drops of rain

Falling

The truth is bigger than these drops of rain

Falling in the ocean

Falling

When the water is rising and there is no higher ground

You can wave your hands up on the roof but you might be left to drown

In the streets of New Orleans, a makeshift funeral pall

"Here Lies Vera, God Help Us All"

The truth is bigger than these drops of rain

Falling

The truth is bigger than these drops of rain

Falling in the ocean

Falling

Jesus said "feed the hungry," Jesus said "help the poor"

"Take care of each other, love one another"

People look around, we let them down

The Mississippi River flooded New Orleans

And we stared in disbelief at our TV screens

If they can keep us fighting another endless war

How many tears before the truth cannot be ignored?

The truth is bigger than these drops of rain

Falling

The truth is bigger than these drops of rain

Falling in Lake Ponchartrain

Falling in the ocean

Falling
