Wasn't that a mighty storm? Yeah   Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning?   Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Blew all the people away      Galveston had a sea wall   Meant to keep the water down   High tide from the ocean   Sent water all over town      Wasn't that a mighty storm? Yeah   Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning?   Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Blew all the people away      Well, now the year was 1900   Fifty long years ago   Death came walking on the water   Death calls, you gotta go      The trumpets sounded warning   Said it's time to leave this place   But no one thought about leaving town   Till death stared them in the face      Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning?   Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Blew all the people away      Then the sea started boiling   A thing that no ship could withstand   Think I heard a sea captain cryin' out   Somebody save a drownin' man      Had two trains loaded   People trying to leave the town   Tracks gave way to the water now   All of those people drowned      Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning?   Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Yes, blew all the people away      I said way back in 1900   Fifty long years ago   Death came walking on the water   Death calls, you gotta go      I said, death, your hands are clammy   You got them on the knee   You came and put a stone on my mother, oh   Coming after me      Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Wasn't that a mighty storm in the morning?   Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Blew all the people away      Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Wasn't that a mighty storm in the water?   Wasn't that a mighty storm?   Blew all the people away
