Album: Twenty Years and Change
No sign of weather
Not a cloud in the sky,
Takin' it easy
I was doin' just fine
As God as my witness
I was mindin' my business
When she blew into town just like a tropical breeze
Face like an angel,
Legs as long as you please
I'll never forget it -
I got all caught up in it -
She was the object of my affection and the
(wind changed direction)
CHORUS
Lock down your shutters and your doors
Better row your boat ashore
Lord have mercy when she
Rains down on you
You've been told,
You've been warned,
You don't know what you're in for
She's a perfect storm
Once she comes you'll never be the same
So you better stay away from Hurricane Jane!
She howled like thunder when the sky opened up,
I started shaking when the lightning struck
My poor heart was breakin'
With every move she was makin'
Then she
Blew right over just as quick as she came
(She probably don't even remember my name!)
I'm broke down and speechless
Trying to pick up the pieces
Just another seduction in her
"path of destruction"
CHORUS
Lock down your shutters and your doors
Better row your boat ashore
Lord have mercy when she
Rains down on you
You've been told,
You've been warned,
You don't know what you're in for
She's a perfect storm
Once she comes you'll never be the same
So you better stay away from Hurricane Jane!
(Instrumental)
Once she comes you'll never be the same,
So you better stay away from Hurricane Jane!
Once she comes you'll never be the same,
So you better stay away from Hurricane Jane!
Once she comes you'll never be the same,
So you better stay away from Hurricane--
Lock down your shutters and your doors
Better row your boat ashore
Lord have mercy when she
Rains down on you
You've been told,
You've been warned,
You don't know what you're in for
She's THE perfect storm
Better stay inside
Where it's safe and warm
But once she comes you'll never be the same
So you better stay away from Hurricane Jane!
Once she comes you'll never be the same
So you better stay away from Hurricane Jane!
