Arlo Guthrie & Pete Seeger - Run, Come See Jerusalem lyrics

It was in nineteen hundred and twenty nine Run come see, I remember that day pretty well Nineteen hundred and twenty nine Run come see, Jerusalem. My God, they were talkin' 'bout a storm in the islands Run come see, my God, what a beautiful morning They were talkin' 'bout a storm in the islands Run come see, Jerusalem My God, there were three sails leavin' out the harbor Run come see, there's mothers and children on board They were bound for the island of Andros Run come see, Jerusalem My God, they were the Ethel and the Myrtle and the Pretoria Run come see, and the Myrtle was bound for Fresh Creek The Ethel was bound for Spanish Creek Run come see, Jerusalem My God, the Pretoria was alone on the ocean Run come see, dashing from side to side in the waves The Pretoria was alone on the ocean Run come see, Jerusalem My God, then a big sea built up on the starboard Run come see, My God, the wind and the waves Well, a big sea built up on the starboard Run come see, Jerusalem My God, then the first sea hit the Pretoria Run come see, and children come a-grabbing for their mothers When the first sea hit the Pretoria Run come see, Jerusalem My God, well, it sent her head down to the bottom Run come see, and the captain come a-grabbing for the tiller When it sent her head down to the bottom Run come see, Jerusalem My God, there were thirty-three souls on the water Run come, see, swimming and praying to their Daniel, God There were thirty-three souls on the water Run come see, Jerusalem My God, now George Brown he was the captain Run come see, My God, he shouted "Children come pray Come and witness your judgment" Run come see, Jerusalem
