On the 14th day of April in 1935,
Eb

there struck the worst of dust storms
Eb
that ever filled the sky.

Bb
Eb
The radio reported we listened with alarm
Ab
To the wild and windy actions
Bb
Eb
of that great mysterious storm.
Ab
From Denver, Colorado,
Eb
Bb
Eb
they said it blew so strong
They thought that they could hold out
Bb
but they didn't know how long
Eb

From Oklahoma City to
Bb

the Colorado line
Ab

Dakota and Nebraska

to the lazy Rio Grande
Ab
Eb
In old Dodge City, Kansas,
Bb
Eb
the dust had rung their nail
And a few old comrades
Bb
Eb
sleeping on top of Old Foothill
Ab
Eb
And now the Kirk and Clovis
Bb
Eb
and all New Mexico,
They said it was the blackest
Bb
Eb
that ever they had saw.
Ab
Eb
You could see that dust storm coming,
Bb
the cloud looked death like black,
Eb
And through our mighty nation
Bb
Eb
it left a terrible track,
Ab
Eb
Our family they was huddled
Bb
Eb
into their old boom shacks,
And the children they were crying
Bb
Eb
as it whistled through the cracks,
Ab
Eb
And the children they were huddled
Bb
into their little room
Eb
we thought it was our judgment
Bb
Eb
we thought it was our doom
Ab
Eb
the storm took place at sundown
Bb
Eb
it lasted through the night
when we went out next morning
Bb
Eb
we saw a terrible sight
Ab
Bb
When we'd outside our windows
Eb
Bb
where wheat fields once had grown
Eb
Was now a rippling ocean
Bb
Eb
of dust the wind had blown
Ab
Bb
Eb
It covered up our fences,
Bb
Eb
it covered up our barns
It covered up our tractors
Bb
in this wild mysterious storm
Eb
Ab
Eb
We loaded our jalopies
Bb
Eb
and piled our families in
We rattled down that highway
Ab
Bb
to never come back again
Eb
