Carrie Underwood 2012 – BLOWN AWAY songlyrics

Dry lightning cracks across
the skies
Those storm clouds
gather in her eyes
Daddy was mean ole
mister
Mama was an angel in the
ground
The weather man called
for a twister
She prayed blow it down
There’s not enough rain in
Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of
that house
There’s not enough wind
in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the
past

[Refrain]

Shatter every window till
it’s all blown away,
Every brick, every board,
every slamming door
flown away
Till there’s nothing left
standing,
Nothing left to yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey
memory blown away,
Blown away

She heard those sirens
screaming out
Her daddy laid there
passed out on the couch
She locked herself in the
cellar
Listened to the screaming
of the wind
Some people called it
taking shelter
She called it sweet
revenge

[Refrain]

There’s not enough rain in
Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of
that house
There’s not enough wind
in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the
past
Shatter every window till
it’s all blown away,
(blown away)

Every brick, every board,
every slamming door
flown away
(flown away)

Till there’s nothing left
standing,
Nothing left to yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey
memory blown away,
Blown away, blown away,
blown away, blown away
