In a country town
You can hear them say
That it's later now
Than it seemed to be the other day - before the hurricane
In a country town
Nothing much has changed
But some trees are down
And the view was different in a way
Before the hurricane
But ah …
Things would be just the same - after the hurricane
In a country town
You can hear them pray
If a bomb should drop
That the wind would never come our way
Before the hurricane
But ah …
Things would be just the same - after the hurricane ...
