[Mike Cooley, Patterson Hood, Jason Isbell - Tornadoes lyrics]
The clouds started forming at five o'clock pm
The funnel clouds touched down
Five miles north of Russellville
Sirens were blowing, clouds spat rainAnd
As the things came through
It sounded like a train
"It came without no warning"
Said Bobbi Jo McLean
She and husband Nolen always loved
To watch the rain
It sucked him out the window
He ain't come home again
All she can remember is "It
Sounded like a train"
Pieces of that truck stop
Litter up the highway, i been told
And I hear that missing trucker
Ended up in Kansas (or maybe it was Oz)
The Nightmare Tour ended for my band and me
The night all the shit went down
A homecoming concert
The night the tornadoes hit my hometown
The few who braved the weather were
Sucked out of the auditorium
I can still remember the sound of
Their applause in the rain
As it echoed through them
Storm clouds, I swear
It sounded like a train
The funnel clouds touched down
Five miles north of Russellville
Sirens were blowing, clouds spat rainAnd
As the things came through
It sounded like a train
"It came without no warning"
Said Bobbi Jo McLean
She and husband Nolen always loved
To watch the rain
It sucked him out the window
He ain't come home again
All she can remember is "It
Sounded like a train"
Pieces of that truck stop
Litter up the highway, i been told
And I hear that missing trucker
Ended up in Kansas (or maybe it was Oz)
The Nightmare Tour ended for my band and me
The night all the shit went down
A homecoming concert
The night the tornadoes hit my hometown
The few who braved the weather were
Sucked out of the auditorium
I can still remember the sound of
Their applause in the rain
As it echoed through them
Storm clouds, I swear
It sounded like a train
