What Are The Lyrics For Wasn't That A Mighty Storm By Nanci Griffith?
Wasn't that a mighty storm? Yeah
Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning? Wasn't that a mighty storm? Blew all the people away Galveston had a sea wall Meant to keep the water down High tide from the ocean Sent water all over town Wasn't that a mighty storm? Yeah Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning? Wasn't that a mighty storm? Blew all the people away Well, now the year was 1900 Fifty long years ago Death came walking on the water Death calls, you gotta go The trumpets sounded warning Said it's time to leave this place But no one thought about leaving town Till death stared them in the face Wasn't that a mighty storm? Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning? Wasn't that a mighty storm? Blew all the people away Then the sea started boiling A thing that no ship could withstand Think I heard a sea captain cryin' out Somebody save a drownin' man Had two trains loaded People trying to leave the town Tracks gave way to the water now All of those people drowned Wasn't that a mighty storm? Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning? Wasn't that a mighty storm? Yes, blew all the people away I said way back in 1900 Fifty long years ago Death came walking on the water Death calls, you gotta go I said, death, your hands are clammy You got them on the knee You came and put a stone on my mother, oh Coming after me Wasn't that a mighty storm? Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning? Wasn't that a mighty storm? Blew all the people away Wasn't that a mighty storm? Wasn't that a mighty storm in the water? Wasn't that a mighty storm? Blew all the people away |
