Some can step back but what do you do
when you got no place you can step back to
turn off the TV and shake your head
or lay down in your FEMA trailer bed

oh Katrina oh katrina
what'd you do to me?
what'd you do to me?
Katrina

remembering the wind remembering the rain
watching the levees go down the drain
the roofs the copters the boots on the ground
for photo ops when the sun went down

oh Katrina oh katrina
what'd you do to me?
what'd you do to me?
Katrina

I'm still 1000 miles from my home
seared by the water and thoughts of the dome
I've heard it said we don't like the term refugee
but tell me what else can you call me

Katrina Katrina
Mississippi Lake Pontchartrain
just tell me where I can lay the blame
Katrina

I'm remembering Katrina and all that she done
still praying to the same God who pulled the gun
no matter where I ramble or where I roam
Katrina she still controls my home

oh Katrina oh katrina
Mississippi Lake Pontchartrain
just tell me where I can lay the blame
Katrina
