Night Of the Johnstown Flood

As the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
Is there a song call "Night of the Johnstown Flood"? I Googled the title but I got references back to the Springsteen song or the actual flood. Looked it up on AMG and came up with a single recording of a song call "Johnstown Flood". Can anybody tell me if it's a real song or did Bruce just invent it? If it's real, can you direct me towards a recorded version.

Thanks.

are you sure he said johnstown? usually i can't understand him cause he sings through his nose. it took the whole born in the usa song just to get those three words across.
