The School House Fire - The Dixon Brothers[00:00:00]
'Twas an afternoon in springtime[00:00:03]
Folk yard are everywhere[00:00:09]
Preparing for a joyous evening[00:00:14]
Never dreaming death was near[00:00:19]
To a little country schoolhouse[00:00:24]
Neighbor's thinking they would go[00:00:29]
They would have a jolly evening[00:00:33]
At the children's little show[00:00:38]
We could hear those children singing[00:00:43]
The voice's ringing clear and sweet[00:00:47]
Never dreaming in their joy[00:00:52]
Of the fate that they would meet[00:00:57]
But their joys all were blighted[00:01:01]
They began to scream and rage[00:01:06]
When a lantern fell that evening[00:01:10]
Streaming fire upon the stage[00:01:15]
It was on that fatal evening[00:01:20]
They could not control the fire[00:01:24]
They madly lashed about for freedom[00:01:28]
But they perished in the fire[00:01:33]
You could hear those children screaming[00:01:37]
While the flames were rolling high[00:01:42]
Daddy come and get your babies[00:01:46]
Will you stand and let us die[00:01:51]
All the Dads they were trying[00:01:55]
To their little ones to go[00:02:00]
But the brave old fellow's perished[00:02:04]
In the damn from the show[00:02:09]
Little children they were trampled[00:02:13]
In that mighty rolling flame[00:02:18]
Others on that night were screaming[00:02:22]
Death was dealing just the same[00:02:26]
There's a lonely spot in cleveland[00:02:31]
Nicely fenced around and aired[00:02:35]
There's a monument erected[00:02:39]
Tells the story of the fire[00:02:44]
You could hear those children screaming[00:02:48]
While the flames were rolling high[00:02:53]
Daddy come and get your babies[00:02:57]
Will you stand and let us die[00:03:02]
