about

An Appalachian sounding strangely tuned 12 string guitar, fiddle, bass and tight harmonies asking what the kids will do as the waters rise

lyrics

Hey now little one - hey now what ya gonna do
Hey now little one - hey now little one what ya gonna do

What ya gonna do when the rains come down
What was gonna do when the water’s all round
Hey little one what ya gonna do
What ya gonna do when the rains come down

What ya gonna do when the waters they rise
What was gonna do as the tide flows by
Hey little one what ya gonna do
What ya gonna do when the waters they rise

Hey now little one - hey now what ya gonna do
Hey now little one - hey now little one what ya gonna do

What ya gonna do when the house is gone
What was gonna do as the waters come on
Hey little one what ya gonna do
What ya gonna do when the house is gone

Instrumental

What ya gonna do when when the sun does shine
What ya gonna do when the heat does rise
Hey little one what ya gonna to
How ya gonna turn off the scorching sun
How ya gonna turn off the scorching sun
