Black Tornado

歌詞

I been speaking later and later in the day Most days I don't talk till maybe 8 o'clock at night It keeps me whole It keeps me holy It keeps me way up in the mountains even when I'm on the road It keeps me coming up for air Keeps me airing out some come It keeps me cool And every place I go is one less place I could call home And every girl I kiss, well I just cross her off my list I don't go far I just go crazy I buried all of my old clothes out in some field in West Des Moines And if you judge me tonight Judge me by the songs I write That's who I am to you And there's a black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh And I could do tonight with something soft and warm and furry But that ain't likely to occur in south central Missouri It's a day off It's an off-day It's a Budweiser, Budgetel, Bukowski kind of night All I got's what's on my back Guitar and a backpack My soul is intact And there's a black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh And everything is changing faster than I can describe All I really know to do is grab the wheel and drive I look for love And some adventure And I try not to let my own breathing scare me off the road There is a tombstone Of my father I visit sometimes There is a tombstone Of my father I visit sometimes And there's a black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes A red tornado, a red tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Black tornado, a black tornado Spinning around in my body sometimes Ooh, uh huh, uh huh Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
