Run, Come See Jerusalem

Blind Blake Higgs

It was in nineteen hundred and twenty nine
Run come see, I remember that day very well, run come see
It was in nineteen hundred and twenty nine
Run come see, Jerusalem

That day they were talkin'
'Bout a storm in the islands
They were talkin' 'bout a storm in the islands
My God what a beautiful morning

That day there were three ships a leavin' out the harbor
That day there were three ships a leavin' out the harbor
The Ethel, the Myrtle and the Pretoria

These ships were bound for a neighbouring island
These ships were bound for a neighbouring island
With the mothers and children on board

Now the Pretoria was out on the ocean,2x
Rocking from side to side
My God, when the first wave hit the Pretoria,2x
The mothers come hauling to their children

My God, there were thirty-three souls on the water,2x
Oh my God there were women praying to the good Lord

My God, now George Brown he was the captain
He shouted come my children come pray
He said, "Come now, witness your judgment day."
