Blowing Through the Hills lyrics

[Verse 1]
All down through the holler
Somethin's just not right
No mockingbird or swaller
Was giving thought to flight

[Verse 2]
I took that last load of lightnin'
And headed for the ridge
Saw something mighty frightenin'
From the Buffalo River Bridge

[Verse 3]
First there came the water
And then there came the hail
Lay down your sons and daughters
Pray the inside walls don't fail

[Verse 4]
I got back to the family
The wind came whippin' in
The grown folks all could hear me
As I come up around the bend

[Chorus]
Get the children to the cellar, grab a Bible if you can
Somethin' wicked comes this way to tear apart the land
Cut the horses from the stable, put the fire out in the still
An evil wind is blowin' through the hills
