When the Weight Comes Down - Black Stone Cherry

Lights out on 42nd street in New York City

The Ohio’s runnin' backwards down in Louisville, Kentucky

There’s a fire on the plains of Kansas City, Kansas

Somebody dropped the bomb

The Louisiana swamps are turnin' red

The Memphis train ain’t ever gonna run again

There’s a fog rollin' on to Boston, Massachusetts

Who’s got the smokin' gun

So where to you wanna be

When all hell breaks loose

Where do you wanna go

When the weight comes down

Watch for foreign soldiers

They’ll try to break your neck

And I just wanna break your heart

When the weight comes down

Better run for shelter

These times will break your mind

And I just wanna break your heart

There’s too much blood down in the Texas oil

The Rocky Mountain Tops are the only place free

What ever happened to the Carolina beaches

I miss those Georgia peaches

So where to you wanna be

When all hell breaks loose

Where do you wanna go

When the weight comes down

Watch for foreign soldiers

They’ll try to break your neck

And I just wanna break your heart

When the weight comes down

Better run for shelter

These times will break your mind

And I just wanna break your heart
