Yellow fever Songtext / Lyric

It was a deadly yellow fever epidemic At first only a few where sick and then it
Started raging bad, It was the worth this town has had
It was the summer of 1853
Only my dear old dad and me
Escaped alive
Escaped unscathed

Summer of 1853
The river reeked of mortality
Summer of 1853
The river reeked of mortality
It was a deadly yellow fever epidemic
