Buffalo Creek

At the mine upon the mountain
And the wall that came down today
And I awoke just to dream a bad dream
I heard the river was comin' my way

Now all the years of goin' under
To win the bread by diggin' coal
Were washed away, takin' my family
Down to the Gulf of Mexico

Oh, Lord, Buffalo Creek!
Left here early this morning
Oh, Lord, Buffalo Creek!
I wanna know
Did You give me this warning?

Now while I stand among the reasons
For my soul cry and pray
I looked down through the valley
And think of another time
I should've been "saved"

Oh, Lord, Buffalo Creek!
Left here early this morning
Oh, Lord, Buffalo Creek!
I wanna know
Did You give me this warning?

Buffalo, Buffalo Creek
Buffalo, oh, Buffalo Creek
Oh, it left me early this morning
