Dust Bowl Blues |
| I just blowed in, and I got them dust bowl blues |
| I just blowed in, and I got them dust bowl blues |
| I just blowed in, and I’ll blow back out again |
| I guess you’ve heard about ev’ry kind of blues |
| I guess you’ve heard about ev’ry kind of blues |
| But when the dust gets high, you can’t even see the sky |
| I’ve seen the dust so black that I couldn’t see a thing |
| I’ve seen the dust so black that I couldn’t see a thing |
| And the wind so cold, boy, it nearly cut your water off |
| I seen the wind so high that it blowed my fences down |
| I’ve seen the wind so high that it blowed my fences down |
| Buried my tractor six feet underground |
| Well, it turned my farm into a pile of sand |
| Yes, it turned my farm into a pile of sand |
| I had to hit that road with a bottle in my hand |
| I spent ten years down in that old dust bowl |
| I spent ten years down in that old dust bowl |
| When you get that dust pneumony, boy, it’s time to go |
| I had a gal, and she was young and sweet |
| I had a gal, and she was young and sweet |
| But a dust storm buried her sixteen hundred feet |
| She was a good gal, long, tall and stout |
| Yes, she was a good gal, long, tall and stout |
| I had to get a steam shovel just to dig my darlin' out |
| These dusty blues are the dustiest ones I know |
| These dusty blues are the dustiest ones I know |
| Buried head over heels in the black old dust |
| I had to pack up and go |
| An' I just blowed in, an' I’ll soon blow out again |
