Stan Cox - Hard Rain Coming Down lyrics
rate meThis storm blew up from out of nowhere now it's raining with a vengence<br />
Tonight West Texas might get washed away<br />
It's nights like these that get me thinking why'd I wanna be a trucker<br />
When I ask myself I ain't got much to say... and<br />
<br />
(Chorus # 1)<br />
It's a quarter past eleven eighty miles from Amarillo<br />
And I'm wondering if a Peterbilt can drown<br />
I can barely see the white lines thank God there ain't much traffic<br />
Just me and this old truck and a hard rain coming down<br />
<br />
My windshield wipers keep on trying it looks like a losing battle<br />
I know there's a truckstop up ahead<br />
I'll grab a cup and wait the storm out Lord knows it can't rain forever<br />
That's what I tell myself but I ain't taking bets<br />
<br />
(Repeat Chorus # 1)<br />
(Bridge)<br />
It's a West Texas morning that old Texas sun is shining<br />
The storm is nothing but a memory<br />
Back on the highway... Twin stacks a smokin'<br />
And eighteen wheels a rollin'... rolling to the one who waits for me<br />
<br />
(Chorus # 2)<br />
At a quarter past seven I pulled out of Amarillo<br />
Eastbound and I let the hammer down<br />
Started counting all the white lines seems the road goes on forever<br />
Just me and this old truck and the rain starts coming down<br />
(Chorus # 3)<br />
It's a quarter past eleven in Atoka, Oklahoma<br />
When this old Peterbilt pulls into my hometown<br />
She's standing in the doorway, there's nothing more to ask for<br />
Just me and the one I love and a hard rain coming down
