Magic Volcano Town

    



The Mount Saint Helens eruption on 

May 18, 1980 unleashed death and destruction, with a massive landslide that collapsed the volcano's northern side and levelled huge areas of forest.


Massive trees were flattened like dominoes.


The sky turned black and ash rained down.


For a llttle girl living in Saint Helens, it was just a Magic Volcano Town.

Magic Volcano Town

   

   

  Verse 1  

Woke up to the sky all gray, I know the mountain blew today.  


  Chorus 

We painted clouds on old milk jugs, scooped ash into paper cups, 

Mama laughed when I made a crown, it was Magic . . . Volcano Town. 


  Verse 2 

Making snow angels in the dusty street, wrote hello in ash on my best friend Pete.  


  Chorus 

We painted clouds on old milk jugs, scooped ash into paper cups, 

Mama laughed when I made a crown, it was Magic . . . Volcano Town. 


  Verse 3 

I was ten when the mountain blew, for me the ash was so cool and new. 


  Chorus 

We painted clouds on old milk jugs, scooped ash into paper cups, 

Mama laughed when I made a crown, it was Magic . . . Volcano Town. 


  Verse 3 

First Street smelled of smoke and rain, I only remember the games we played. 


  Chorus 

We painted clouds on old milk jugs, scooped ash into paper cups, 

Mama laughed when I made a crown, it was Magic . . . Volcano Town.
