The clouds started forming at five o'clock pm
|
The funnel clouds touched down
|
Five miles north of Russellville
|
Sirens were blowing, clouds spat rain
|
And as the things came threw, 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.
