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 nature raisin hell She parked a pickup in a tree Tornado time in Texas Take the paint right off of your barn Tornado time in Texas Blow the tattoo off your arm INSTRUMENTAL Well when pigs fly, no I mean really fly You can bet that its blowing hard Uncle Clarence was sitting in the outhouse Now hes sitting in the yard Grannys got the barn cat under her arm Shes got a dish pan over her head Daddys counting kids four five six You better bring a loaf of bread Tornado time in Texas Take the paint right off of your barn Tornado time in Texas Blow the tattoo off your arm INSTRUMENTAL Hiding in the cellar with the canning jars Sounds like a train up top Hold your breath and peek outside To see what we aint got But itll take your wheat, itll take your corn Even take your cotton balls Suck red river just as dry as a bone Dump it on Wichita falls Tornado time in Texas Take the paint right off of your barn Tornado time in Texas Blow the tattoo off your arm Blow the tattoo off your arm The tattoo off your arm
