Lyrics

Jaws started droppin' as them crops bowed down to the ground
And then leaves turned to brown
Dust a blowin' into town as the people rode out
Cause they were hungry as hell
And we just buckled up our belts and our purses
And had to start biting our nails
And all of a sudden came a sound like the end of the world
And then we heard that it was

Dirt turned to pavement as them hands turned over the dirt
And then the calluses faded away
As all them children, they started to work
And we could hear what they'd say
But it was static from the t.v.'s havin' its way
With out god fearin' kids
And then all of a sudden came a sound like the end of the world
And then we heard that it was

Milk from the kitchen just a keeps on a slippin'
Down into my lemonade glass
And that first truck we ever did
Buy, keeps a getting a stuck in those vehicle jams
And that still smug horizon's blowin' smoke
Like it's bindin' its time while we are makin' its bed
And then all of a sudden came a sound like the end of the world
And then we heard that it is

Hey jim, whatcha doing with him
I said I'm giving all my money to the police chief
