Black Tornado Lyrics - Dan Bern

Black Tornado - Dan Bern from his album New American Language 

I been speaking- 

later and later in the day- 

Most days I don't talk 

'til 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 everyplace 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 

(background) lil more guitar) 

(chourus)And there's a Black Tornado 

Black Tornado 

Spinning around in my body sometimes 

Black Tornado 

a Black Tornado 

Spinning around in my body sometimes

And I could do tonight with something soft and warm and furry 

But that ain't likely to occur in southcentral 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 

this Guitar and a backpack 

My soul's intact 

(chourus)And there's a Black Tornado. . . . 

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...
