[Lyric] The Bomb (Our Fifty States Project)

[Verse 1]
When you're off to sea
Up the Georgia coast
You may hear a tale
Of a forgotten ghost

About a spectre whose image will fade
An abomination, that man has made
Seeking power of destruction
A death device, a mortal sin

Man had split the atom
A more frightening force can't be fathomed

[Refrain]
Still I get feeling that we should be making the bomb

[Verse 2]
Back in '58 two war planes flew
One had the bomb, but no one knew
That the other plane was on its way
The two planes crashed over the bay
The lone pilot of the fighter plane Ejected, he got away
The bomber had to jettison its payload the weapon
[Refrain]
Still I keep hearing that we should be making the bomb

[Verse 3]
After all these years, it has not been found
But you can search in Wassaw Sound
You might just solve the mystery
Of a nuclear bomb that's lost at sea
It's up to you to make a stand
So it doesn't fall in the wrong hands
Will you be the hero?
Or Tybee Island, ground zero

[Refrain]
Still I keep hearing that we should be making the bomb
