It varies depending on where the tornado goes and how strong it is. In addition to dirt even weak tornadoes can pick up pieces of vegetation and any light, loose objects that happen to be in their path. Stronger tornadoes can pick up light vehicles, roofs, and outbuildings. The very strongest tornadoes can lift virtually anything, including whole trees, well-constructed houses, train cars, and even pieces of asphalt.
