This Dirk Powell song tells a watery tale of displacement and despair.

lyrics

I went out late one night,
The moon and stars were shining bright.
Storm come up and the trees come down,
Tell you boys, I was waterbound.

Waterbound on a stranger's shore,
River rising to my door.
Carried my home to the field below,
Waterbound, nowhere to go.

Carved my name on an old barn wall,
No one'd know I was there at all.
Stable's dry on a winter's night,
You turn your head, you can see the light.

Black cat crawling on an old boxcar,
Rusty door and a falling star.
Ain't got a dime in my rations sack,
Waterbound and I can't get back.

It's all gone and I won't be back,
Don't believe me, count my tracks.
River's long and the river's wide,
I'll meet you boys on the other side.

So say my name and don't forget,
Water still ain't got me yet.
Nothing but I'm bound to roam,
Waterbound and I can't get home.
