Blown Away

By: Carrie Underwood


Dry lightning cracks across the skies


Those storm clouds gather in her eyes


Her daddy was a mean old mister


Mama was an angel in the ground


The weather man called for a twister


She prayed blow it down


There's not enough rain in Oklahoma


To wash the sins out of that house


There's not enough wind in Oklahoma


To rip the nails out of the past


Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,


Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away


'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday


Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,


Blown away


She heard those sirens screaming out


Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch


She locked herself in the cellar


Listened to the screaming of the wind


Some people call it taking shelter


She called it sweet revenge


Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,


Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away


'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday


Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,


Blown away


There's not enough rain in Oklahoma


To wash the sins out of that house


There's not enough wind in Oklahoma


To rip the nails out of the past


Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away (blown away)


Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away (blown away)


'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday (blown away)


Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,


Blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away
