Bringing On the Weather

"Bringin On the Weather

He Carves a Wake

Through the Dark Belly of the Night

With the Thunderhead Column

Following Behind Him

For the Forced March Into Morningside

Deep in Texas

Summer's Hotter

Than She Can Recall

And She's Been Dried Up Lately

From the Cryin

Through the Alcohol

There's the Drone of the Diesel Below

The Whiteness of the Silence From His Radio

Oh, He's a Man Behind the Wheel

Pushin On, She's Callin

Bringin On the Weather

With His Mind On Her and Morningside

He Measures Himself in Miles

Until One Day By the Laundry Wire

She Saw the Thunderheads and Heard

The Drone of the Diesel Below

The Whiteness of the Silence From His Radio

Oh, He's a Man Behind the Wheel

Pushin On, She's Callin

Bringin On the Weather

And There's a Tired Man

Standin With His Girl in the Rain

But There's a Diesel Runnin in the Driveway

Don't You Know He's Got Another Run to Make

But It Won't Take Him Far

And At Least Some Rain Came

At Least Some Rain Came

At Least Some Rain Came

Came On With the Weather

There's the Drone of the Diesel Below

The Whiteness of the Silence From His Radio

Oh, He's a Man Behind the Wheel

Pushin On, She's Callin

And There's the Drone of the Diesel Below

The Whiteness of the Silence From His Radio

Oh, He's a Man Behind the Wheel

Pushin On, She's Callin
