Tornado Time in Texas

[Verse 1] Well the sky was blacker than a funeral suit Hotter than a depot stove Hide in the cellar Here comes Amarillo Blowing down the road You got your hail stones big as hen eggs boy Your clouds as green can be Old mother natures raisin hell She parked a pick-up in a tree [Chorus] Tornado time in Texas Take the paint right off of your barn Tornado time in Texas Blow the tattoo off your arm [Verse 2] Well when pigs fly, no I mean really fly You can bet that it's blowing hard Uncle Clarence was sitting in the outhouse Now he's sitting in the yard Granny's got the barn cat under her arm She's got a dish pan over her head Daddy's counting kids four five six Better bring a loaf of bread [Chorus] [Verse 3] Hiding in the cellar with the canning jars Sounds like a train up top Hold your breath and peek outside To see what we ain't got It'll take your wheat, it'll take your corn Even take your cotton balls Suck red river just as dry as a bone Dump it on Wichita falls [Chorus]
