lyrics

1935 THE SKY WAS BRIGHT AND BLUE (ACAPELLA)

NO ONE WAS AWARE WHAT ON THE HORIZON GREW
MY DADDY HE WAS BARELY KEEPING US ALIVE
A POOR DIRT FARMER BACK IN 1935

OH BLACK SUNDAY YOU DID TAKE MY SUN AWAY
ON A BRIGHT BLUE SKY DAY
OH BLACK SUNDAY YOU TAKE MY DADDIES LAND
TURNED IT INTO A SEA OF DIRT AND SAND

IT CAM ROLLING IN BOILING BLACK AS NIGHT
AT 60 MILES PER HOUR 8000 FEET IN HEIGHT
NO ONE COULD ESCAPE EVEN THOUGH THEY TRIED
BIRDS TOO AS THEY FELL FROM THE SKY

CHORUS

I COULD NOT HEAR MY DADDY CALLING MY NAME
I COULD NOT SEE MY HOME ONLY 20 FEET AWAY
I JUST CLOSED MY EYES AND COULD HARDLY BREATH
SOME HOW MY DADDY HE DID GRAB MY SLEEVE

CHORUS

THE NEXT DAY WE WEREN'T PREPARED FOR WHAT WE SAW
SOME ALIEN LAND SAND DRIFTS STANDING 10 FEET TALL
MY DADDY HE DID TURN TO ME AND SAID
THIS LIFE HERE MY SON IS DEAD

THIS LIFE HERE MY SON IS DEAD (ACAPELLA)

CHORUS
REPEAT LAST LINE
