Nice collection Jon.

Of course you have now opened yourself up to be inundated with disaster songs ans subjects.

Here is one by our own (late and deary beloved) Katlaughing about The Columbine Tragedy.


"That's not my Colorado
With the blue skies up above,
That's not my Colorado,
Where the school ran with blood.

That's not my Colorado
Where my parents grew up proud
That's not my Colorado
Senseless killing was not allowed.

Colorado was the beauty
Of the Rocky Mountains high
Colorado was the quiet
Of the river's gentle sigh.

Colorado meant a home to me
And now, I know it not
That's not my Colorado
Where the children felt the shot."
