about

Bonnie was a real dog from Colorado.

lyrics

HURRICANE BOB

Two miles off the coast
wind about forty knots
hoarders are back from the store
and they bought a-plenty lots
stashed their ten-dollar water
and turn their tv’s down low
but everyone’s got their beers
tuned to the transistor radio
‘cause it’s Hurricane Bob
Hurricane Bob
Hurricane Bob

Weather Channel wonders why the worry
paper said it be okay
but the psychic on the 900-line said
“boy get down to the cellar and stay”
Clouds spin psychedelic colors
and the wind cries Mary too
and the old couples are making love
and the won’t stop the whole night through
‘cause it’s Hurricane Bob
Hurricane Bob
Hurricane Bob

Bonnie’s got a bone through her nose
she’s running across the fields
left her clothes at the factory
with the scars that she once concealed
Dust and rain on her body
paint a picture of the Virgin Guadeloupe
and the screen door she left open and swinging
is singing “making whoopee”
‘cause it’s Hurricane Bob
Hurricane Bob
Hurricane Bob
