about

A song about the worst dust storm of the 1930's dust bowl era.

lyrics

Mama took our laundry off the line
pockets full of sand every time
Daddy sees the big wall rolling in
Says kids it's time to get inside again

CH
And it's dust to eat
Dust to drink
Dust in our beds and
In the kitchen sink
Dust in our hair
Dust in our eyes
It's a wonder,
We're still alive

V
Birds fluttered off
rabbits ran away
sky so dark on that
Black Sunday

We shut the door
we pulled the shades
and fell to our knees
and prayed

CH

Carlson's they took off
Johnsons followed lead
headed to the land of
milk and honey
Daddy shook his head
mama starts to cry
And I just waved goodbye

CH
