We were shaking in our beds that night

There were strangers in the streets that night

Preacher cried out hellõs been raised

Another hot oklahoma night

Another hot oklahoma night

The kind of night where you just sit still

The kind of night where you just donõt move

We were shaking in our beds that night

We were shaking in our boots that night

Tornado hit and the roof gave way

Tornado hit and all we could do was pray



How was i to know what i was to think

How was i to know what i was to feel

How am i to say what i canõt feel

How an i to face what i cannot hide



We were looking in our hearts that day

There was movement in our hearts that day

They were talking but we could not hear

They were talking but we could not hear

Fever broke and the dead raised up

The ground broke open and the dead were raised

The kind of night where you just sit spooked

Itõs a hard life, itõs a hard life

We were looking in our hearts that day

We were hugging in our beds that night

Storm hit and the roof gave way

When a man cries it ainõt easy

But he swore duty, body and soul



How was i to know what i was to think

How was i to know what i was to feel

How an i to say what i canõt describe

How an i to face what i cannot hide



Momma said you know she ainõt that strong



We were praying in our hearts that day

God, there was movement in our hearts

They were praying but i could not feel

They were praying but i couldnõt feel

Another hot oklahoma night

Another oklahoma night

Fools part as the day breaks wide

Heavenõs doors were opened wide

I quit, so i said give up

He said i canõt stop the lights not gone

Once in a blue moon shown against that day

And my heart rips open and all i could do was pray



How was i to know what i was to think

How was i to know what i was to feel

How am i to say what i canõt describe

How am i to face what i cannot hide
