[00:00.00]St Louis Cyclone Blues - Lonnie Johnson
[00:12.54]I was sitting in my kitchen lookin' 'way out cross the sky
[00:24.34]I was sitting in my kitchen lookin' out across the sky
[00:35.81]I thought the world was ending I started in to cry
[00:47.92]The wind was howlin' the buildings beginnin' to fall
[00:59.04]The wind was howlin' the buildings beginnin' to fall
[01:09.51]I seen that mean old twister comin' just like a cannonball
[01:20.81]The world was black as midnight I never heard such a noise before
[01:31.86]The world was black as midnight I never heard such a noise before
[01:43.45]Sound like a million lions when they turn loose their roar
[01:54.69]Oh people was screamin' and runnin' every which away
[02:06.17]Oh people was screamin' runnin' every which away
[02:13.47](Lord have mercy on our poor people ) [spoken words Lonnie Johnson]
[02:15.97]I fell down on my knees I started in to pray
[02:28.88]The shack where we were living she reeled and rocked but never fell
[02:36.25](Lord Have mercy ) [spoken words Lonnie Johnson]
[02:40.37]The shack where we were living it reeled and rocked but never fell
[02:48.04](Have mercy ) [spoken words Lonnie Johnson]
[02:51.97]How the cyclone spared us nobody but the Lord can tell
