Lyrics for The Hurricane Song by Tom Glazer
A hurricane by any name
Still remains a hurricane
Betty, Cora, Ester, Jane
It’s the same old hurricane
They get started
In the tropics
In the ocean
Far from land
Through the summer
Tropic sunlight
Heats the water
There’s no breeze
Air and water
Both get warmer
They get warmer
Day by day
Then the cool air
Starts a breeze there
Hurricane is
On it’s way
Warm air funnels
Inward, upward
Moving at in-
Creasing speed
Vapor cools
And condenses
Then the heavy
Clouds are formed
Clouds condensing
Heats the air and
Makes the air rise,
Higher still
Wind increases
Spirals inward
And the rain comes

Pouring down :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:
:cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:
Winds are raging


As the air mass
Slowly moves a-
Cross the sea
Edges toward the
Coastal regions




Whipping waves up
Crazily


Though its eye is
Calm and gentle
It’s as wild as


It can be
Hurricane hits
By the city
In its wake is





Tragedy


A hurricane by any name
Still remains a hurricane
Betty, Cora, Ester, Jane
It’s the same old hurricane

They get started
In the tropics
In the ocean

Far from land
Through the summer
Tropic sunlight

Heats the water
There’s no breeze
Air and water
Both get warmer

They get warmer
Day by day

Then the cool air
Starts a breeze there
Hurricane is
On it’s way

Warm air funnels

Inward, upward

Moving at in-
Creasing speed
Vapor cools

And condenses
Then the heavy
Clouds are formed

Clouds condensing
Heats the air and
Makes the air rise,
Higher still

Wind increases

Spirals inward
And the rain comes


Pouring down :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain:

Winds are raging



As the air mass
Slowly moves a-
Cross the sea
Edges toward the
Coastal regions





Whipping waves up
Crazily



Though its eye is

Calm and gentle
It’s as wild as



It can be
Hurricane hits
By the city

In its wake is







Tragedy
