Run, Come See Jerusalem

It was in nineteen hundred and twenty-nine
Run, come see, run, come see
I remember that day pretty well
It was in nineteen hundred and twenty-nine
Run, come see Jerusalem

They were talkin' 'bout the storm on the island
Run, come see, run, come see
Lord God, what a beautiful day
They were talkin' 'bout the storm on the island
Run, come see Jerusalem

There were the Ethel and the Myrtle and Pretoria
Run, come see, run, come see
Great God, what a thing to see
There were the Ethel and the Myrtle and Pretoria
Run, come see Jerusalem

Well, now the first wave hit the Pretoria
Run, come see, run, come see
Great God, what a thing to see
Well, the first wave hit the Pretoria
Run, come see Jerusalem

Oh well, it sent a head down to the bottom
Run, come see, run, come see
Run, run, run to the bottom
Great God, it sent a head down to the bottom
Run, come see Jerusalem

There were thirty-three souls on the water
Run, come see, run, come see
Screamin' and prayin' to the heavenly God
There were thirty-three souls on the water
Run, come see Jerusalem

It was in nineteen hundred and twenty-nine
Run, come see, run, come see
I remember that day pretty well
It was in nineteen hundred and twenty-nine
Run, come see Jerusalem

It was in nineteen hundred and twenty-nine
Run, come see, run, come see
It was in nineteen hundred and twenty-nine
Run, come see Jerusalem
