This is a song was sung back in 18 and 92There was a terrible flood that yearPeople lost everything they hadTheir crops, their live stockThat means their horses, their mules, cowsGoats and everything they had on their farmAnd they would start cryin' and singin' this songThey tell me, Joe Turner been here and goneLord, they tell me, Joe Turner been here and goneThey tell me, Joe turner been here and goneThen they would go out hunting rabbits, 'coons and 'possomsAnything they could catchSometimes they would catch something, then again they didn'tAnd when they would come home, they would findFlour meat and molassesIn their homes and they would know thatJoe Turner had been there and left food for themAnd they would start cryin' and singin' this songThey tell me, Joe Turner been here and goneLord, they tell me, that Joe turner been here and goneThey tell me, Joe Turner been here and goneThen they would start out lookin' for woodAnd stuff to make a fireAnd they would look in their yards, and they would find axes, woodThat Joe Turner had brought there for themThen they would get happyAnd start singin' and cryin' this songThey would get happy and do a little boogie-woogie too
