Gillian Welch Lyrics
"Revival II"

And the great boat sank and the okies fled
And the great emancipator took a bullet
In the head, in the head
Took a bullet in the back of the head.

It was not December and it was not in May
It was 14th of May that was ruination day
That's the day, that's the day
They were one, they were two
They were three, they were four
They were 500 miles from their home, from their home
They were 500 miles from their home when the iceberg hit
Then they must have known
God moves on the water, Casey Jones
God moves on the water, Casey Jones.

It was not December and it was not May
It was 14th of April that was ruination day
That's the day, the day that is ruination day...
