The Tropical Storm
Words and music by Juanita Newland Ulloa
Wake up, wake up, oh my dear one.
Wake up and start a new day.
No matter if there’s sun or raindrops,
We’ve much to do on this day.
(REFRAIN…2X)
Oh, please, mommy, I don’t want to wake up.
I can see that storm clouds are here.
I can feel that something is coming.
Now the tropical storm is near.
We’ll stay inside while it’s raining.
Let’s get the windows shut tight.
The sky is getting dark like it’s nighttime!
Sit here with me ‘til it’s light.
(REFRAIN…2X)
We’ll listen to the storm raging.
Glad we’re inside on this day.
Tomorrow we’ll go out and see puddles,
While the dark clouds all go away.
(REFRAIN…2X)
