The Huntsville Fire by Tamarack
Intro:
Well, April 1894
Out behind May's hardware store
Burning a little garbage in an old coal oil barrel
Southeast wind...
Flames....
Soon the whole of Huntsville is in peril
Verses are the same throughout.
Chorus:
From the banks of the Muskoka
We watched as the smoke and the flames laid Huntsville low
If you took all the tears that we shed on that pier
You'd think we could've put that fire out but no
We just stood and watched that little town go.
Bridge:
You know that fire can tear a town apart
Don't let that fire break Huntsville's heart
Interlude:
Then a last chorus finishes it off.
