Woo Hoo    A baby’s born   The father’s gone   Can’t live with what he’s done   You know now mama’s torn   She can’t afford   To raise her son      You know the ills of this world they can get you down   You know the ills of this world they can get you down   But then you get back up      Way down in New Orleans   The city screams   They’ve gone black and white   And when the levy’s broke   Woo hoo the city float   And people lost their lives   You know they needed aid   They hoped and prayed   But it was just too late   And now the family’s cried   They know inside   Doesn’t have to be that way      You know the ills of this world they can get you down   You know the ills of this world they can get you down   But then you get back up      You know the ills of this world they can get you down   You know the ills of this world they can get you down   But then you get back up
