Galveston flood (album version)

You know the year of 1900
That was sixty years ago
Death come howling on the ocean
Death calls, you got to go
Now Galveston had a seawall
To keep the water down
But high tide from the ocean
Spread the water over the town
(Chorus:)
Wasnt that a mighty storm
Ya an that a mighty storm in the morning
Wasnt that a mighty storm
Now it blew all the people all away
You know the trumpets give them warning
Said youd better leave this place
Woah, no one thought of leaving
til death stared them in the face
Then the trains at the station were loadin
All the people leaving town
An the trestle give way without warning
The train they went on down
(Chorus)
Ya , the rain it was a falling
Thunder began to roll
Lightning flashed like hell fire
Yes, the wind began to blow
And its death the cruel master
When the wind began to blow
Rode in on a team of horses
Cried, 'Death, wont you let me go'.
(Chorus)
You know 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
Meand the ships they could not land
And I heard a captain crying
'God save the drowning man'.
(Chorus)
Ah, the death your hands are clammy
You got them on my knee
You come and took my mother
Wont you come back after me
And the flood it took my neighbor
An it took my brother too
I thought I heard myfather call...
I watched my mother go
(Chorus)
You know the year of 1900
Children, sixty years ago
Death come howling on the ocean
Death calls , you got to go
(Chorus 2X)
