about
While not strictly a 'nautical song,' High Ground invokes images of the seaside communities devastated by wind, rain and the dreaded tsunami.
This arrangement has its roots in the 'Brian Bedford Band' -- a collaboration we had with members of the great British a cappella group, Artisan. The BBB never got to record it, so we've adopted it for this project.
lyrics
High Ground
Brian Bedford
Bad Water flowing -- big river growing
everyone's going to High Ground
Bad river racing -- white water chasing
time to be facing High Ground
Bad weather coming--big river humming
everyone's running to High Ground
Black shrouds are shedding---deep water spreading
everyone's heading for High Ground
Rain Rain go away...
Bad winds are waking--Big storms are breaking
everyone's taking the High Ground
Bad times arriving--Deep water diving
everyone's driving to High Ground
Storm clouds are growing ---Flash lightning glowing
everyone's going to High Ground
Dark thoughts are weaving--Strange thoughts of grieving
everyone's leaving for High Ground
Rain Rain go away...
Bad River flowing--big river growing
everyone's going to High Ground
Bad river racing--white water chasing
time to be facing High Ground
