-- You heard 'bout the legend of Jesse James, an' John Henry just to mention some names.Well there's a storm chasin' legend in the south today.A man called Donny, from Atwater, Cee-A. Every storm chaser knows his name.They swear he got ice blood runin' in his veins.A foot like lead, and nerves like steel. Well his truck jack-knifed, turned completly round,he was coming down backwards 'bout the speed of sound.Alot of folks seen him, and they all say he had his head out the window yelling, "Clear the way!"Well he got to the bottom, safe and sound, and everybody asked Donny how he made it down. He said folks when the tornado picked up too much speed I just runned along beside it and drug my feet.
