On the 14th day of April in 1935,
E
A
B
there struck the worst of dust storms
E
that ever filled the sky.
A
E
B
E
The radio reported we listened with alarm
A
To the wild and windy actions
B
E
of that great mysterious storm.
E
B
E
they said it blew so strong
They thought that they could hold out
B
but they didn't know how long
E
A
B
E
From Oklahoma City to
B
E
the Colorado line
A
E
Dakota and Nebraska
B
E
to the lazy Rio Grande
A
E
In old Dodge City, Kansas,
B
E
the dust had rung their nail
And a few old comrades
B
E
sleeping on top of Old Foothill
A
E
And now the Kirk and Clovis
B
E
and all New Mexico,
They said it was the blackest
B
E
that ever they had saw.
A
E
You could see that dust storm coming,
B
the cloud looked death like black,
E
And through our mighty nation
B
E
it left a terrible track,
A
E
Our family they was huddled
B
E
into their old boom shacks,
And the children they were crying
B
E
as it whistled through the cracks,
A
E
And the children they were huddled
E
we thought it was our judgment
B
E
we thought it was our doom
A
E
the storm took place at sundown
B
E
it lasted through the night
when we went out next morning
B
E
we saw a terrible sight
A
B
When we outside our windows,
E
B
E
where wheat fields once had grown,
Was now a rippling ocean
B
E
of dust the wind had blown.
A
B
E
It covered up our fences,
B
E
it covered up our barns,
It covered up our tractors
B
in this wild mysterious storm.
E
A
E
We loaded our jalopies
B
E
and piled our families in
We rattled down that highway
A
B
to never come back again
