Oh go easy there, cousin There�s a storm a-comin� Better quit your runnin� and back down I ain�t lyin� to you, mister Certifiable twister Headed straight for the center of this town
And oh yes my brothers We are gonna lean on each other If we�re gonna turn this situation �round
Oh and all of it was true The sunlight shines right through You thought you were done with those days But they ain�t done with you
Oh we�ll get you down off of the ropes We�ll clean you up, we�ll give you hope Check your bruised and battered egos at the door All our schemes have been foiled Give away what�s left of the spoils We can always leave �em wantin� a little more
And the wounded bird of all our trust Lie in the field covered in rust The topsoil has blown into our blood And there�s a divine purpose Lying just below the surface You�re the one that I�ve been dreaming of
Oh and all of it was true The sunlight shines right through You thought you were done with those days But they ain�t done with you
Oh go easy there, cousin There�s a storm a-comin� Better board up all your windows and your doors
And there�s a divine purpose Lying just below the surface You�re the one that I was put here for
