Doug Sahm - Texas Tornado lyrics

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
