Dry lightning cracks across the skies
|
Those storm clouds gather in her eyes
|
Daddy was mean ole mister
|
Mama was an angel in the ground
|
The weather man called for a twister
|
She prayed blow it down
|
There¡¯s not enough rain in Oklahoma
|
To wash the sins out of that house
|
There¡¯s not enough wind in Oklahoma
|
To rip the nails out of the past
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Shatter every window till it¡¯s all blown away,
|
Every brick, every board, every slamming door flown away
|
Till there¡¯s nothing left standing,
|
Nothing left to yesterday
|
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
|
Blown away
|
|
She heard those sirens screaming out
|
Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch
|
She locked herself in the cellar
|
Listened to the screaming of the wind
|
Some people called it taking shelter
|
She called it sweet revenge
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Shatter every window till it¡¯s all blown away,
|
Every brick, every board, every slamming door flown away
|
Till there¡¯s nothing left standing,
|
Nothing left to yesterday
|
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
|
Blown away
|
|
[Outro]
|
There¡¯s not enough rain in Oklahoma
|
To wash the sins out of that house
|
There¡¯s not enough wind in Oklahoma
|
To rip the nails out of the past
|
Shatter every window till it¡¯s all blown away,
|
(blown away)
|
Every brick, every board, every slamming door flown away
|
(flown away)
|
Till there¡¯s nothing left standing,
|
Nothing left to yesterday
|
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
|
Blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away
|
