Twister gon' touch down
Shake your foundation
Tearin' up the fields across the whole nation, lord!
Well there's a big black cloud rollin' in stretching ‘cross the horizon
The horses getting restless and the businessmen have gone into hiding
Half us saw it coming and the other half had no way of knowing
But I've never known a man to keep a tornado wind from blowing
Twister gonna touch down
Shake your foundation
Tearin' up the fields across the whole nation, lord!
When the dust devil gits ya the gold won't matter anymore
Whirlwind howlin' ‘round out on the white house lawn
300 million people wondering when the vacancy light comes on
Now Katie's got her baby but she got no place to bake apple pie
And the bricklayer's out on the street while his house keeps the banker-man dry
Twister gon' touch down
Shake your foundation
Roarin' like an engine
Rippin' though the station
Tearin' up the fields across the whole nation, lord!
When the dust devil gitcha
When the tornado gitcha
When the cyclone gitcha
The gold won't matter
Your gold won't matter anymore
No no no it won’t
