High Water (For Charley Patton)
High Water (For Charley Patton) is a song by Bob Dylan, released on his 31st studio album "Love and Theft" in 2001. The song draws its title from the Charley Patton song "High Water Everywhere", and is meant as a tribute to that bluesman. It is one of many songs based on the 1927 Louisiana flood. Other songs about the event include Memphis Minnie's "When the Levee Breaks" (also recorded by Dylan on his Modern Times album as "The Levee's Gonna Break"), and Randy Newman's "Louisiana 1927". The song directly quotes three classic American songs in the last two verses, first the traditional ballad "The Cuckoo" with the line: "The cuckoo is a pretty bird She warbles as she flies." Robert Johnson's "Dust My Broom" with the line: "I'm getting up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom." Charlie Pattons " Shake it and break it" with the line: "You can shake it, you can break it, you can hang it on the wall." Bob's amended version of this line is "Bertha Mason shook it – broke it, then she hung it on a wall."
