los angeles new year's flood - woody guthrie lyrics
oh, my friends, do you remember? on that fatal new year’s night the lights of old los angeles were a flick’ring, oh, so bright. a cloud burst hit our city and it swept away our homes; it swept away our loved ones in that fatal new years flood. no, you could not see it coming till through our town it rolled; one hundred souls were taken in that fatal new years flood. whilst we all celebrated that happy new year’s eve, we knew not in the morning this whole wide world would grieve; the waters filled our canyons and down our mountains rolled; that sad news rocked our nation as of this flood it told. no, you could not see it coming till through our town it rolled; one hundred souls were taken in that fatal new years flood. our highways were blockaded our bridges all washed down, our houses wrecked and scattered as the flood came a-rumblin’ down; i bow my head in silence and i thank my god above that he did not take my home from me in that fatal new year’s flood. no, you could not see it coming till through our town it rolled; one hundred souls were taken in that fatal new years flood.
