Lighthouse
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Wagons rolled out under darkened skies
2
The sun refused to shine
3
Four-hundred people full of hopes and dreams
4
In eighteen-forty-nine
5
They waved goodbye, women dried their tears
6
Young men hid their fears
7
They headed west, full of confidence
8
That their fortunes would appear
9
They packed a trunk full of china, a bible or two
10
A shotgun for Leroy, a pistol for Lou
11
A pretty dress for Sarah
12
And a hat for sister Fay
13
No one thought their greed for gold would change their lives someday
14
They headed west in eighteen-forty-nine
15
Sixty-one wagons, two miles long in a line
16
They headed west in eighteen-forty-nine
17
------ guitar ------
18
March winds came, filled the sky with lightnin'
19
It rained all day and night
20
Old men died and backs were broken
21
As they set their wagons right
22
They crossed the mountains, came down to the sea
23
Sure that it would be
24
Gold and riches and a life of ease
25
But what they didn't see...
26
Was a trunk full of china all broken in two
27
A shotgun for Leroy that he used on Lou
28
A pretty dress for Sarah
29
That they used to bury Fay
30
No one thought their greed for gold would change their lives that way
31
They came for gold in eighteen-forty-nine
32
Sixty-one wagons, two miles long in a line
33
A promised land in eighteen-forty-nine
34
A promised land in eighteen-forty-nine
35
A promised land in eighteen-forty-nine
