lyrics

April, 1935, a blanket falls across the sky. It’s hard to see, and it's hard to breathe. The grit, it grinds between your teeth.

Nowhere to hide no time to run, the cloud snuffs out the midday sun. No shadows fall where there’s no light, it’s going on noon and dark as night.

Jesus turned the water into wine, can he turn these teardrops into whiskey or moonshine? ‘Cause I need something stronger and I’m looking to the sky. I’ve got troubles overflowing and my cup is running dry.

Out across the battered plains, no water here but still it rains. This dusty wave will wash us out, a landlocked flood brought on by drought.

So stay inside and gasp for air, lock your doors and say your prayers, and hope the good Lord shines his face, upon this barren, arid place.

Jesus turned the water into wine, can he turn these teardrops into whiskey or moonshine? ‘Cause I need something stronger and I’m looking to the sky. I’ve got troubles overflowing and my cup is running dry. (x2)
