Ruination Day, Part II Lyrics

And the great barge sank and the okies fled
And the great emancipate took a bullet in the head
In the head
Took a bullet in the back of the head

It was not December and it was not in May
Was the 14th of April, that is ruination day
That's the day
The day that is ruination day

They were one, they were two, they were three, they were four
They were five hundred miles from their home
From their home
They were five hundred miles from their home.

When the iceberg hit, well they must have known
God moves on the water Casey Jones
Casey Jones
God moves on the water Casey Jones

It was not December and it was not in May
Was the 14th of April, that is ruination day
That's the day
The day that is ruination day
