    Drive-by Truckers - Tornados

    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.
    The Man has a branch office in each of our brains, his corporate emblem is a white albatross, each local rep has a cover known as the Ego, and their mission in this world is Bad Shit.

    You mean that it's not about a NASCAR driver? ;);):D

    Down There By The Train-Tom Waits (Cash covered it)
    Black Train Song-The Doors

    my friend wrote a killer song called "Fourfeeteightandahalfinches" all about trains:
    "and i'll meet you somewhere on down the line
    and i'll meet you where the tracks meet the riverside
    way down where the mountains divide
    you'll be the first one to die
    when locomotives collide
    and keep roll.. keep rollin' down the line"

    "there she rolls
    proceed with caution up ahead
    and i'll see you on down the line"
