Change in the Weather

SUBHEAD: Just thought you might enjoy some classic rock from the 1980's with a bit of a dark twist.

This is a shortened version of the 6:30 minute original of John Fogerty's song "Change in the Weather".  The song was recorded in 1986 but leaves a distinctive taste in our minds today. Sorry about any YouTube promotions or advertising.

Change in the weather, change in the weather
Something's happening here
Change in the weather, change in the weather
People walkin' 'round in fear

Ah, huh, you better duck and run
Get under cover 'cause a change is come
Storm warnings and it looks like rain
Be nothin' left after the hurricane

This here's a jungle, it ain't no lie
Look at the people, terror in their eyes
Bad wind is comin' and can't be denied
They're runnin' with the dogs and afraid to die

Change in the weather, change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather, change in the weather
People walkin' 'round in fear

Aha, you best believe it's true
The levee's busted, bad news comin' true
Oh no, there ain't no place to hide
Reach out and pluck you, take you for a ride, yeah

Sheer frustration takin' everything in sight
Won't be no blastin' if we make it through the night
Down on your knees for heaven and pray
But every demon have to have his day

Change in the weather, change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather, change in the weather
People walkin' 'round in fear

High noon I can't believe my eyes
Wind is ragin' there's a fire in the sky
Ground shakin' everything comin' loose
Run like a coward but it ain't no use

Edge of the river just an ugly scene
People getting pushed, and people gettin' mean
The change is comin' and it's getting' late
There ain't no survivin', there ain't no escape

Change in the weather, change in the weather
Something is happening here
Change in the weather, change in the weather
People walkin' 'round in fear

Come on try
Ah somethin' been happinin' here, yeah
Whoa there's a change
Feel a change comin' on in the weather, yeah, yeah, yeah

Can't you tell it, I can't see it comin' Lord , ah ah
Got to, got to, got to
Got to, got to, got to feel yeah, yeah, yeah
Open up your eyes and see
