Tornadoes Lyrics

Artist: Drive-By Truckers
Album: The Dirty South

The clouds started forming 5:00 PM
The funnel clouds touched down five miles north of Russellville
Siren€™s were blowing, clouds spat rain
and as the thing went threw, I swear, It sounded like a train

It came without no warning said Bobby Jo McLean
She and husband Nolen always loved to watch the rain
It sucked him out the window, he ain€™t come home again
All she can remember is it sounded like a train

Pieces of that truckstop
litter up the highway
I been told.
And I hear that missing trucker ended up in Kansas
(or maybe it was Oz)

The Nightmare Tour ended for my band and me
the night all the shit went down
a homecoming concert, the night the tornadoes hit my home town
The few who braved the weather were sucked out of the auditorium
I can still remember the sound of their applause in the rain
as it echoed through them storm clouds, I swear, It sounded like a train.
