lirik lagu galveston flood – tom rush
chorus
wasn’t that a mighty storm
wasn’t that a mighty storm in the morning, well
wasn’t that a mighty storm that blew all the people all
away
you know the year of 1900
children, many years ago
death came howling on the ocean
death calls, you got to go
now galveston had a seawall
to keep the water down, and a
high tide from the ocean
spread the water over the town
(chorus)
you know the trumpets give them warning
you’d better leave this place
now, no one thought of leaving
’til death stared them in the face
and the trains they all were loaded
the people were all leaving town
the trestle gave way to the water
and the trains they went on down
(chorus)
rain it was a’ falling
thunder began to roll
lightning flashed like h-ll fire
the wind began to blow
death the cruel master
when the wind began to blow
rode in on a team of horses
t cried, “death, won’t you let me go”.
(chorus)
hey, now trees fell on the island
and the houses give away
some they strained and drowned
some died in most every way
and the sea began to rolling
and the ships they could not stand
and i heard a captain crying
“god save a drowning man”.
(chorus)
death your hands are clammy
you got them on my knee
you come and took my mother
won’t you come back after me
and the flood it took my neighbor
took my brother too
i thought i heard my father calling
and i watched my mother go
(chorus)
you know the year of 1900
children, many years ago
death came howling on the ocean
death calls, you got to go
(chorus 2x)
