The Great Dust Storm - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

On the 14th day of April of 1935 [00:00:03]

There struck the worst of[00:00:10]

Dust storms that ever filled the sky [00:00:12]

You could see that dust storm comin' [00:00:17]

The cloud looked deathlike black [00:00:20]

And through our mighty nation [00:00:23]

It left a dreadful track [00:00:27]

From Oklahoma City to the Arizona line [00:00:31]

Dakota and Nebraska to the lazy Rio Grande [00:00:37]

It fell across our city like a[00:00:44]

Curtain of black rolled down [00:00:48]

We thought it was our judgement [00:00:51]

We thought it was our doom [00:00:54]

The radio reported we listened with alarm [00:00:57]

The wild and windy actions of[00:01:04]

This great mysterious storm;[00:01:08]

From Albuquerque and Clovis [00:01:11]

And all New Mexico [00:01:14]

They said it was the blackest that ever they had saw [00:01:18]

From old Dodge City Kansas [00:01:24]

The dust had rung their knell [00:01:28]

And a few more comrades[00:01:31]

Sleeping on top of old Boot Hill [00:01:34]

From Denver Colorado [00:01:38]

They said it blew so strong [00:01:41]

They thought that they could hold out [00:01:45]

But they didn't know how long [00:01:48]

Our relatives were huddled into their oil boom shacks [00:01:52]

And the children they was cryin'[00:01:58]

As it whistled through the cracks [00:02:02]

And the family it was crowded into their little room [00:02:05]

They thought the world had ended [00:02:12]

And they thought it was their doom [00:02:15]

The storm took place at sundown [00:02:19]

It lasted through the night [00:02:22]

When we looked out next morning [00:02:25]

We saw a terrible sight [00:02:29]

We saw outside our window[00:02:32]

Where wheat fields they had grown[00:02:36]

Was now a rippling ocean of dust the wind had blown [00:02:40]

It covered up our fences [00:02:47]

It covered up our barns [00:02:50]

It covered up our tractors in this wild and dusty storm [00:02:53]

We loaded our jalopies and piled our families in [00:03:00]

We rattled down that highway to never come back again[00:03:07]
