terry allen & the panhandle mystery band - the lubbock tornado (i don't know) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well, it come in from the southwest in the middle of the night
hey, it loomed over lubbock, what a god almighty sight
well, it dipped down into the darkness, all crazy, out of control
hey, it throwed around that panhandle town ’til it couldn’t throw it around no more
yeah, some blamed secret government projects, some blamed it on the president
some blamed wind from the wings of jesus just flapping ’round heaven+sent

[chorus]
yeah, but i don’t know (he don’t know)
but i don’t know (he don’t know)
they don’t know
whеn a high pressure zone hits a low
somеthing gotta give, yeah, something gotta go

[verse 2]
like a vampire over the broadway, it showed no moral code
it’d take out a mighty church of god 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 falling down
yeah, some blamed communist sabotage, some blamed rednecks on the right
some blamed teenage restlessness, rock and roll gone berserk in the night
[chorus]
yeah, but i don’t know (it’s a ufo)
but i don’t know (it’s a ufo)
they don’t know
when a high pressure zone hits a low
something gotta give, yeah, something gotta go

[verse 3]
well, this hubbub 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 stumbling back home again

[chorus]
yeah, but i don’t know (it’s a tornado)
but i don’t know (it’s a tornado)
maybe so
but when a high pressure zone hits a low
something gotta give, ah, something gotta go
