There boarding up the windows
There nailing down the doors
It's gonna hit tonight now
It 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 dont wanna die
Texas Tornado the Lords gonna see us thru
Texas Tornado be careful it don't get you
SOLO
It blew out Amarillo
Came thundering across the plains
People in Houston and Corpus were crying
Said the weathman 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 dont wanna die
Texas Tornado the Lords gonna see us thru
Texas Tornado be careful it don't get you
