歌曲歌詞
On the 14th day of April of 1935
There struck the worst of
Dust storms that ever filled the sky
You could see that dust storm comin'
The cloud looked deathlike black
And through our mighty nation
It left a dreadful track
From Oklahoma City to the Arizona line
Dakota and Nebraska to the lazy Rio Grande
It fell across our city like a
Curtain of black rolled down
We thought it was our judgement
We thought it was our doom
The radio reported we listened with alarm
The wild and windy actions of
This great mysterious storm;
From Albuquerque and Clovis
And all New Mexico
They said it was the blackest that ever they had saw
From old Dodge City Kansas
The dust had rung their knell
And a few more comrades
Sleeping on top of old Boot Hill
From Denver Colorado
They said it blew so strong
They thought that they could hold out
But they didn't know how long
Our relatives were huddled into their oil boom shacks
And the children they was cryin'
As it whistled through the cracks
And the family it was crowded into their little room
