Dust Song lyrics

We're down on our luck and gettin' lower each day The dust cloud came and stole the sun away And the neighbors told us not to go outside You know I'm just a boy I'm not prepared to die Lord won't you let me down easy please Show my your mercy I'm a human being, that's all Just a' lookin' for somethin' to believe The dust keeps comin' like the devils storm It fills your boots all thick and warm The baby died the other night You know it wrapped him in the ground so tight Lord won't you let me down easy please Show my your mercy I'm a human being, that's all Just a' lookin' for somethin' to believe We packed it all in a flatbed ford 'Cause the politicians never said a word And we ain't got nothin' if the crops don't last California we'll be comin' fast Lord won't you let me down easy please Show my your mercy I'm a human being, that's all Just a' lookin' for somethin' to believe
