lyrics

Dust
by Oxlip

From Oklahoma to the Texan Plains
There's no water and there's no rain
Angry winds have shaken our homes
Taken our land and taken our hope

Blackened wind came out of the sky
And evil storm has bled us dry
Our fields of gold are a bed of rust
Buffalo grass has turned to dust

Dust to eat and dust to drink
Dust in your hair and dust in your teeth
Mr.President you gave us gin and rum
Won't you give us back the midday sun?

Did you tear the sacred ground?
Did you push too hard? Did you push too long?
The promise of money has made you proud
What goes up must come down

Wash your windows and wash you walls
Wash your children and teach them well
To store their riches in a heavenly home
And never sell what can't be sold

Folk/Rock
