BETTER TAKE COVER-words and music Jon Clark
© Copyright 2014 Row North Music (ASCAP)

I see a cloud but I’m gonna keep planting
Ducks in a row just a little confused
Runnin’ it hard and the John Deere’s flyin’
High on the seat just a spin of the wheel
Flash in the sky did ya see it now
Or in my head like a bolt went through
Maybe it’s real but I think I’m seeing
A flip of the switch on the big blue wall

Hey, Hey, Hey you say it’s not raining
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Too far to run and a little too late
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near

Cloths on the line and they’re blowin’ like crazy
Goin’ full sail don’t it look that way
Mother can run and the big dogs’ barkin’
Gather em in like she does so well
Chickens don’t care but the goats look nervous
Bull in the field, he’s still lookin’ for love
I don’t know why but I think we’re dreamin’
Seen it before all that comes will pass

Hey, Hey, Hey you say it’s not raining
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Too far to run and a little too late
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near

Bring on the sun when the rains’ done pouring
Wash it away don’t ya smell that earth
Wiggle your toes can you count your fingers
I think I’m here not so sure about you.
How many days will the heavens wail
How many years can your luck run out
You got a Sam and his name is Uncle
Hole in his pocket and it’s torn right through
Hey, Hey, Hey you say it’s not raining
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Too far to run and a little too late

Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Give it some time and we’ll see what happens
Nothin’ to show now it’s out of our hands
Toss of the coin and a few good prayers
What have you got when it’s just begun?
Carnival man he just keeps on grinin
Line em all up but I can’t lay em down
Two for a dollar or ten for a five
Beggin’ for mercy I’m headin’ home now
Beggin’ for mercy I’m headin’ home now

Hey, Hey, Hey you say it’s not raining
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Too far to run and a little too late
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near
Better take cover cause the thunder sounds near…
