They're boarding up the windows
They're nailing down the doors
It's gonna hit tonight, now it's gonna hit the shore
Gonnna tear up all the ranches, gonna kill old Galveston
Texas tornado, you all son of a gun
Texas tornado coming down from the sky
Texas tornado, I don't wanna die
Texas tornado, the Lord's gonna see us through
Texas tornado be careful, it don't get you
It blew out Amarillo, came thundering across the plains
People in Houston and Corpus were crying
Said the weatherman was insane
You better pack up the kids and take the news in the car on the run
Texas tornado, you old son of a gun
Texas Tornado coming down from the sky
Texas tornado, I don't wanna die
Texas tornado, the Lords gonna see us through
Texas tornado, be careful it don't get you
