Dust Bowl Blues
Lyrics
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
