1930 To 1939

I am the empire state 
Building opens. 
   I am Nazi Germany  
Invades Poland. 

   I am the 21st amendment 
Ending prohibition. 
   I am Life magazine's first 
Addition. 

   I am the Star-spangled banner 
National anthem. 
   I am Lindbergh's son kidnapped, 
No ransom. 

   I am the great dust bowl 
Event. 
   I am Franklin Roosevelt as 
The President. 

   I am the Golden Gate Bridge 
Is complete. 
   I am John Dillinger gunned  
Down in the street. 

   I am the San Francisco 
Ballet opens. 
   I am Amelia Earhart flies 
Across the ocean. 

   I am Alcatraz opens it's 
Doors. 
   I am Hitler becomes Fuhrer 
And starts the wars. 

   I am Alcoholics Anonymous  
There is a better way. 
   I am the FBI born,  
Hoover seized the day. 

      Turbo1904
