When The Weight Comes Down Lyrics

When The Weight Comes Down lyrics

Lights out on 42nd street in New York City

The Ohio's runnin' backwards
down in Louisville, Kentucky

There's a fire on the plains of Kansas City,
Kansas

Somebody dropped the bomb

The Louisiana swamps are turnin'
red

The Memphis train ain't ever gonna run again

There's a fog
rollin' on to Boston, Massachusetts

Who's got the smokin' gun



So where to you wanna be

When all hell breaks loose

Where do you
wanna go

When the weight comes down

Watch for foreign soldiers

They'll try to break your neck

And I just wanna break your heart



When the weight comes down

Better run for shelter

These
times will break your mind

And I just wanna break your heart



There's too much blood down in the Texas oil

The Rocky Mountain Tops
are the only place free

What ever happened to the Carolina beaches

I miss those Georgia peaches



So where to you wanna be

When
all hell breaks loose

Where do you wanna go



When the weight
comes down

Watch for foreign soldiers

They'll try to break your
neck

And I just wanna break your heart



When the weight comes
down

Better run for shelter

These times will break your mind

And I just wanna break your heart
