The tide was high in Jamaica Bay
The ocean pushed into Rockway.
Lookin’ back,
The sky was black
We were right in Sandy’s track
We couldn’t leave, we knew we had to stay
We boarded up the windows
And hunkered down to pray


The flames came late into the night
Breezy Point was swept in violent light
All in vain
Fighting fire in the rain
Taken by a hurricane
We boarded up the windows
And hunkered down to pray.


Chorus: Now here’s to you and me and Mary Magdalene
God save the children and the women and the men
Let’s drink to you and me and Mary Magdalene
I never want to hear that devil wind again.


The sea came through the kitchen floor
Rising halfway up the door
Sirens blared
The kids were scared
You don’t know the fear we shared
Hold on to me,
I won’t let you go
I begged the Lord for mercy
but I didn’t think he cared


Chorus: Now here’s to you and me and Mary Magdalene
God save the children and the women and the men
Let’s drink to you and me and Mary Magdalene
I never want to hear that devil wind again.
Repeat Chorus
