The air was getting heavy
I knew that it was coming
So I started up the Chevy
And kept the motor running
A storm came down upon us
And flooded all the rivers
Surrounded by piranhas
And the doctors who deliver
Anything that you require
Now the fields are all on fire
Calling down the wire
La de da de da de da
Batten down the hatches Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on my back porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
Like a natural disaster
Hurricane between us
I saw it on the TV
I went down to Phoenix
To make my last CD
And nobody got paid
Just like the good old days
You can waste your life away
La de da de da de da
Batten down the hatches Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on my front porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
Like a natural disaster
I left Nova Scotia
And headed down the coast
Tore a strip off Memphis
Before I levelled Roanoke
I punished Pecos County
And headed for Las Cruces
Anyone around me
Will be covered in my bruises
You want something to remember me by
You can write my name in the sky
Sing La de da
La de da de da de da
Batten down the hatches Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on our front porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
I’m a natural disaster
I’m a natural disaster
I knew that it was coming
So I started up the Chevy
And kept the motor running
A storm came down upon us
And flooded all the rivers
Surrounded by piranhas
And the doctors who deliver
Anything that you require
Now the fields are all on fire
Calling down the wire
La de da de da de da
Batten down the hatches Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on my back porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
Like a natural disaster
Hurricane between us
I saw it on the TV
I went down to Phoenix
To make my last CD
And nobody got paid
Just like the good old days
You can waste your life away
La de da de da de da
Batten down the hatches Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on my front porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
Like a natural disaster
I left Nova Scotia
And headed down the coast
Tore a strip off Memphis
Before I levelled Roanoke
I punished Pecos County
And headed for Las Cruces
Anyone around me
Will be covered in my bruises
You want something to remember me by
You can write my name in the sky
Sing La de da
La de da de da de da
Batten down the hatches Becky
Open up the earth and sky
Waiting on a natural disaster
Sitting out on our front porch
Watching storm clouds moving faster
I’m a natural disaster
I’m a natural disaster

But if I remember correctly he said that he wrote the song on the way up to record the album in the South so in would make sense if he was going through the parts of the south suceptible to tornados.
