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
