Papa's name was Hannibal, _ [C]
it was a hammer riot ?
?
Everything we owned got all burned up in the Great Depression [G] fire ?
?
Stripping mines, and it won't drop the farm ?
?
And drain the green [C] earth dry ?
?
We lost it all, the lonely love we left alive ?
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
We're all _ just _ _ old children
_ _ _ Singing _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
a dust [G] bowl song _ _ _ _
When the crops [Cm] won't grow _ _ _
_ _ Then the [G] dust just blows _
_ _ _ _ [C] When the green fields are gone
When the green grass growing
[Gm] Fields are gone
When the [C] green _ _ fields are gone
When the green grass growing
Fields are [G] gone

_ _ Well they said in California _
_ _ There's work of [C] every kind
Well the only job ever got out there
Was a job of waiting on a [G] welfare line _ _ _ _ _ _
Once I had a dollar
_ _ Once I [C] had a dream
_ Now all the work is being done by big old [G] me _
We're _ _ all _ _ _ _ just old children _
Singing _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _
a [G] _ _ _ dust bowl song _
_ _ When the crops won't [C] grow _
_ _ _ _ _ Then _ _ _ _ _ the dust [G] just blows
_ [C] When _ _ [G] [C] the _ green fields are gone
When the green grass growing
Fields are [G] gone
_ [C] When the green _ fields are gone
When the green grass growing
[Gm] Fields are gone
Hey [C] hey hey _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] Let [C] the green fields grow strong
_ There's a bluegrass [Gm] revival coming on
Let [Cm] the green fields grow strong
There's a grassroots revolution coming [G] on
Hey [C] hey hey _ _ _ _ _ _
