Natural Disaster

The air was getting heavy, I knew that it was coming
So I started up the Chevy and kept the motor running
A storm cam down upon and flooded all the rivers
Surrounded by piranhas and the doctors who deliver
Anything that you require
Now the fields are all on fire
And I’m calling down the wire

La de da de da de die
Batten down the hatches, Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on my front porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
Like a natural disaster

A hurricane between us, I saw it on the TV
I went down to Phoenix to make my last CD
And nobody got paid
Just like the good ole days
You can waste your life away

La de da de da de die
Batten down the hatches, Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on my front porch
Watching storm cloud moving faster
Like a natural disaster

I left Nova Scotia and headed down the coast
Tore a strip off Memphis before I leveled Roanoke
I punished Pecos County and headed for Las Cruces
Anyone around me will be covered in my bruises
You want something to remember me by
You can write my name in the sky
Sing la de die…
