hard rain coming down - stan cox lyrics

hard rain coming down

this storm blew up from out of nowhere now it’s raining with a vengence
tonight west texas might get washed away
it’s nights like these that get me thinking why’d i wanna be a trucker
when i ask myself i ain’t got much to say .. and

(chorus # 1)
it’s a quarter past eleven eighty miles from amarillo
and i’m wondering if a peterbilt can drown
i can barely see the white lines thank god there ain’t much traffic
just me and this old truck and a hard rain coming down

my windshield wipers keep on trying it looks like a losing battle
i know there’s a truckstop up ahead
i’ll grab a cup and wait the storm out lord knows it can’t rain forever
that’s what i tell myself but i ain’t taking bets

(repeat chorus # 1)
(bridge)
it’s a west texas morning that old texas sun is shining
the storm is nothing but a memory
back on the highway…twin stacks a smokin’
and eighteen wheels a rollin’ …rolling to the one who waits for me

(chorus # 2)
at a quarter past seven i pulled out of amarillo
eastbound and i let the hammer down
started counting all the white lines seems the road goes on forever
just me and this old truck and the rain starts coming down
(chorus # 3)
it’s a quarter past eleven in atoka, oklahoma
when this old peterbilt pulls into my hometown
she’s standing in the doorway, there’s nothing more to ask for
just me and the one i love and a hard rain coming down
