Hurricane Jones (Larry W Jones 09/12/2019) (song #7601)

Well, my own Daddy’s name was Ivy

But he was known as Hurricane Jones

Yes, he was kin to the wayward wind

Mama saw that was the way with him

He was born in Louisiana

And my dear Mama was born there too

Now, I was born in Port Arthur

Right in the middle of World War Two

Hurricane Jones was my Daddy’s name

Maybe the wayward wind was to blame

Hurricane Jones didn’t leave no stones

His life rolled on as Hurricane Jones

(Instrumental)

My Mama raised us kids in Texas

While Daddy worked anywhere he could

Well digger or on a garbage truck

And Gladstell sawmill where he stacked wood

When I saw my Mama’s hungry eyes

And her tired fingers worked to the bone

That’s when I wondered where Daddy was

Just like a hurricane he was gone

Hurricane Jones was my Daddy’s name

Maybe the wayward wind was to blame

Hurricane Jones didn’t leave no stones

His life rolled on as Hurricane Jones

Hurricane Jones didn’t leave no stones

His life rolled on as Hurricane Jones
