Luyện nghe bài hát Dust Storm Disaster

(The Dust Storm)

On the day of April of 1935,
There struck the worst of storms that ever filled the sky.
You could see dust storm comin', the cloud looked deathlike black,
And our mighty nation, it left a dreadful track.

Oklahoma City to the Arizona line,
Dakota and to the lazy Rio Grande,
It across our city like a curtain of black rolled down,
We it was our judgement, we thought it was our doom.

The radio reported, we with alarm,
The wild and windy actions of great mysterious storm;
From and Clovis, and all New Mexico,
They said it was the blackest that they had saw.

From old Dodge City, Kansas, the dust had rung knell,
And a few more sleeping on top of old Boot Hill.
From Denver, Colorado, they said it so strong,
They thought they could hold out, but they didn't know how long.

Our relatives were huddled their oil boom shacks,
And the children was cryin' as it whistled through the cracks.
And the family it was crowded into their room,
They thought the had ended, and they thought it was their doom.

The storm took place at sundown, it lasted the night,
When we out next morning, we saw a terrible sight.
We saw outside our window where wheat they had grown
Was now a rippling ocean of the wind had blown.

It up our fences, it covered up our barns,
It covered up our tractors in wild and dusty storm.
We loaded our jalopies and piled our in,
We rattled down highway to never come back again.
