Blown Away

Dry lightning, cracks across the skies
 Those storm clouds gather in her eyes
 Daddy was a mean ole mister
 Mama is 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
 Shatter every window till it's all blown away
 Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
 Till there's nothing left standing
 Nothing left to yesterday
 Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away
 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
 Shatter every window till it's all blown away
 Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
 Till there's nothing left standing
 Nothing left to yesterday
 Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away
 Blown away, blown away, blown away
 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
 Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
 Till there's nothing left standing
 Nothing left to yesterday
 Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away
 Blown away, blown away, blown away
 Away
 Away
