The Storm That Struck Miami Lyrics by Fiddlin’ John Carson

Complete Recorded Works In Chronological Order: Volume 7 (1930-1934)

0

Oh, come and here my story;
The saddest was ever told
Of a storm that struck Miami
A town of wealth and gold
The water fell in torment, (?)
One night an hour or more
The wind it blew at a hundred miles
And now we're swept to shore
Eight-hundred dead and many
Who never will be found
And buildings that cost millions;
Lay there upon the ground
Ships were wrecked and bodies
Were carried out to sea
And all is desolated
Wherе beauty used to be
Littlе children lost their parents
And husbands lost their wives
They're thousands torn and bleeding
Escaped with just their lives
'Twas at the midnight hour
When those souls were called away;
To face their earthly record
At the break of that day. (?)
They say that in Miami;
Folks had forgotten God
They did not keep the sabbath
Sad sins they way they trod
People all take warning
And don't forget to pray
For you too may meet your maker
Before the break of day
Credits
