Thank you so much for the lyrics!! A true, native response to the disaster of Hurricane Camille in Nelson County. I remember the chorus like this:

The night of the disaster was like a terrible dream.
But we regard the highway, now, with the highest esteem.
We won't forget the pain, and the misery we have known.
We're gonna build the town back up, and it won't take very long
Ooooh you don't know what you've got until it's gone...
