《Galveston Flood(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] You know the year of 1900

[00:00:34] That was sixty years ago

[00:00:38] Death come howling on the ocean

[00:00:42] Death calls you got to go

[00:00:46] Now Galveston had a seawall

[00:00:50] To keep the water down

[00:00:53] But high tide from the ocean

[00:00:57] Spread the water over the town

[00:01:01] Wasn't that a mighty storm

[00:01:05] Ya an' that a mighty storm in the morning

[00:01:09] Wasn't that a mighty storm

[00:01:12] Now it blew all the people all away

[00:01:17] You know the trumpets give them warning

[00:01:20] Said you'd better leave this place

[00:01:24] Woah no one thought of leaving

[00:01:28] 'Til death stared them in the face

[00:01:32] Then the trains at the station were loadin'

[00:01:36] All the people leaving town

[00:01:40] An' the trestle give way without warning

[00:01:45] The train they went on down

[00:01:52] Ya the rain it was a' falling

[00:02:08] Thunder began to roll

[00:02:12] Lightning flashed like hell fire

[00:02:15] Yes the wind began to blow

[00:02:19] And it's death the cruel master

[00:02:23] When the wind began to blow

[00:02:28] Rode in on a team of horses

[00:02:31] Cried Death won't you let me go

[00:02:50] You know trees fell on the island

[00:02:55] And the houses give away

[00:02:59] Some they strained and drowned

[00:03:02] Some died in most every way

[00:03:06] And the sea began to rolling

[00:03:11] Mean'd the ships they could not land

[00:03:14] And I heard a captain crying

[00:03:18] God save the drowning man

[00:03:32] Ah the death your hands are clammy

[00:03:40] You got them on my knee

[00:03:46] You come and took my mother

[00:03:49] Won't you come back after me

[00:03:53] And the flood it took my neighbor

[00:03:58] An' it took my brother too

[00:04:02] I thought I heard my father call

[00:04:13] I watched my mother go

[00:04:22] You know the year of 1900

[00:04:29] Children sixty years ago

[00:04:33] Death come howling on the ocean

[00:04:37] Death calls you got to go
