Lubbock Tornado Lyrics

Lubbock Tornado lyrics

Well it come in from the southwest

In the middle of the night

Hey loomed over Lubbock

What a gawd awmighty sight

Yeah it dipped down into the darkness

All crazy out of control

Hey throwed around that panhandle town

Till ft couldn't throw ft around no more

Yeah some blamed secret government

Projects

Some blamed it on the president

Some blamed wind from the wings of Jesus

Just flappin round heaven sent

Yeah but I don抰 know (he don't know)

But I don't know (he don't know)

They don't know ... huh huh

But when a high pressure zone...

Hits a low

Somethin gotta give ... yeah somethin

Gotta go

An like a vampire over the broadway

It showed no moral code

It'd lake out a mighty church of gawd

And leave a honky tonk by the road

And tiny creatures went flying

Right out of prairie dog town

Smack up against the great plains life

Little bones in the rain failin down

Yeah some blamed communist sabotage

Some blamed rednecks on the right

Some blamed teenage restlessness

Rock n roll gone berserk in the night

Yeah but I don't know (it's a UFO)

But I don't know (it's a UFO)

They don't know ... huh

But when a high pressure zone...

Hits a low

Somethin gotta give ... yeah somethin

Gotta go

Well this hub-bub on the hub

Laid a city to its knees

Sweet memories beneath the rubble

Shattered glass and broken dreams

Yeah but in that wake of destruction

This dazed and battered town

Pulled its ass up out of the debris

And put its feet back up on the ground

Yeah some said it was the ghost of

Buddy

Some said the ghost of Cain

Some said the soul of the prodigal son

Is just stumblin back home again

Yeah but I don't know (Its a tornado)

But I don't know (it's a tornado)

Maybe so, huh

But when a high pressure zone...

Hits a low

Some gotta give ahhhh...

Some gotta go
