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

Written by：Guthrie[00:00:02]

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

There struck the worst[00:00:10]

Of dust storms that ever filled[00:00:12]

The sky[00:00:15]

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

Comin' the cloud looked[00:00:19]

Deathlike black[00:00:22]

And through our mighty nation[00:00:24]

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

From oklahoma city[00:00:31]

To the arizona line[00:00:34]

Dakota and nebraska[00:00:37]

To the lazy rio grande[00:00:41]

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

Like a curtain of black[00:00:48]

Rolled down[00:00:49]

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

We thought it was[00:00:54]

Our doom[00:00:56]

The radio reported[00:00:58]

We listened with alarm[00:01:01]

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

Of this great mysterious storm[00:01:08]

From albuquerque and clovis[00:01:11]

And all new mexico[00:01:15]

They said it was the blackest[00:01:18]

That ever they had[00:01:21]

Saw[00:01:23]

From old dodge city kansas[00:01:25]

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

Knell[00:01:30]

And a few more comrades[00:01:32]

Sleeping on top of old[00:01:33]

Boot hill[00:01:36]

From denver colorado they[00:01:38]

Said it blew so strong[00:01:42]

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

Hold out but they didn't[00:01:47]

Know how long[00:01:50]

Our relatives were huddled into[00:01:52]

Their oil boom shacks[00:01:56]

And the children they was cryin'[00:01:59]

As it whistled through[00:02:02]

The cracks[00:02:04]

And the family it was crowded[00:02:06]

Into their little room[00:02:09]

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

Ended and they thought it[00:02:14]

Was their doom[00:02:17]

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

It lasted through the[00:02:22]

Night[00:02:24]

When we looked out next morning[00:02:26]

We saw a terrible[00:02:29]

Sight[00:02:31]

We saw outside our window[00:02:33]

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

Grown[00:02:37]

Was now a rippling ocean[00:02:40]

Of dust the wind had[00:02:44]

Blown[00:02:45]

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

Covered up our barns[00:02:50]

It covered up our tractors[00:02:54]

In this wild and dusty[00:02:57]

Storm[00:02:59]

We loaded our jalopies and[00:03:01]

Piled our families in[00:03:04]

We rattled down that highway[00:03:07]

To never come back again[00:03:11]
