Lucky Mud: Music

Ivan the Terrible

(Lucky Mud)
March 13, 2010
Maggie McKinney
(chorus) When Ivan the Terrible
Swept through that day
There were bodies
In Pensacola Bay

The winds did howl
And the waves crashed in
To drag back their plunder
To the sea
Like pirates it pillaged
The houses and land
And toppled the giant oak trees
(chorus)

Just before dark
They brought in the trucks
And with cadaver dogs
Leading the way
They searched for the bodies
then loaded them up
And quietly hauled them away
(chorus)

The board of tourism
Shut down the news
It was bad for business
They say
The loss of life
Was a terible thing
It would surely keep tourists away
(chorus)
