Lyrics:

Look out, Cleveland, the storm is coming through
And it's runnin' right up on you
Look out, Houston, there'll be thunder on the hill
Bye-bye, baby, don't ya lie so still

Was Wednesday evening when first we heard the word
It did not come by train nor bird, no
'Twas when Ben Pike stepped down to say
'This old town's gonna blow away'

Look out, Cleveland, the storm is coming through
And it's runnin' right up on you
Look out, Houston, there'll be thunder on the hill
Bye-bye, baby, don't ya lie so still

Chain lightning, frightening as it may seem
Must not be mistaken for just another dream
Justice of the peace don't know his own fate
But he'll be down in the shelter late

Look out, Cleveland, the storm is coming through
And it's runnin' right up on you
Look out, Houston, there'll be thunder on the hill
Bye-bye, baby, don't ya lie so still

Hiding your money won't do no good (no good)
Build a big wall, you know you would if you could, yeah
When clouds of warning come into view
Better get the old woman right out of her shoe

Look out, Cleveland, the storm is coming through
And it's runnin' right up on you
Look out, Houston, there'll be thunder on the hill
Bye-bye, baby, don't ya lie so still
