California Earthquake
GThere was a California earthquake in the Cyear of 'G83 It Emshook the living Gdaylights out of the AOwens County DSeat There weren't a Gbuilding still left standing when the Cdust had cleared aGway Just a Emrumble in the Gdistance all the Dway to San GAndrea
Sherman Buck was driving his old mule into town When a big one came and shook so hard that it knocked him to the ground Lord there opened up a hole so big he thought his time was up Lord it swallowed up that poor old mule and it just missed Sherman Buck Chorus:
CCalifornia earthquake you just doGn't know what you've done We may fall off in the Emocean, Lord you'll Anever make us Drun You're a Gpartner of the devil, Lord we Cain't afraid of Ghim We'll Embuild ourselves anGother town so you can Dtear it down aGgain
Then came the quake of '99 that levelled Mission Creek The earth was like an ocean churning with waves of twenty feet Lord it sounded like a thousand trains were screaming underground Clean across to San Joachim they heard that mournful sound Chorus Then came one day the holocaust Lord on rocks of Franciso Bay Miles of walls came down like old Jericho that day Might near everything the earthquake missed a holy fire consumed Just left 'em smoke and the ashes of the dreams that can't be ruined Chorus by: José Duarte jtduarte1@gmail.com
