Lyrics

Here we are in our little cabin                  been Hunkered down most all the night

Storm came round just after dinner         And we’ve been praying for Daylight

 

There was peace down in the valley        And the water sang where the river bend

Then thunder rang   lightning was calling   Til no peace could be found within

The wind has blown, trees have fell        road is washed out by the rain

Ain’t much left but the mess of this damned ole hurricane

 

 

Then we go on out a looking       trying to find some signs of life

Across the field I see my neighbor           in disbelief as he held his wife

She said

Had clothes on the line now they’re gone              my things are scattered on the lawn

And the Rain and the Wind and the Wind and the Rain and the Howling Sound’ll drive you insane

Roof is gone off the barn         the Storm destroyed the whole dang farm

All this Rain and all this Wind I Never want to see it again

 

There was peace down in the valley        And the water sang where the river bend

The thunder rang   lightning was calling   Til no peace could be found within

The wind has blown, trees have fell        road is washed out by the rain

Ain’t much left but the mess of this damned ole hurricane

Ain’t much left but the mess of this damned ole hurricane
