Kentucky Downpour

(album: Jubilation - 1998)

Night wheels rolling on a cold black road
Got an uneasy feeling, hauling a heavy load
Ease up on the hammer, it's getting pretty thick
It's starting to rain and it's gonna get slick.

Oh, Kentucky downpour
It's coming down harder than we ever bargained for.

Storm clouds blowing through the cotton fields
Black ice is forming underneath my wheels
Driving back home, this ain't no time for storming
You can't make no time when all the rain starts pouring.

Oh, Kentucky downpour
It's coming down harder than we ever bargained for.

Oh, Kentucky cloudburst
My luck's run out, maybe went from bad to worse.

Thunder is crashing and lightning is flashing
We pray for peaceful times
Can a voice be heard above the din
When the winds are high ?

Still water runs deep through the fathom blue
The rain clouds pour down when you don't want 'em to
Riding and losing track of when I coming back
Or where I'm coming from or if I'm on the run.

Oh, Kentucky downpour
It's coming down harder than we ever bargained for.

Oh, Kentucky cloudburst
My luck's run out, maybe went from bad to worse.

Oh, Kentucky downpour
It's coming down harder than we ever bargained for.

Oh, Kentucky cloudburst
My luck's run out, maybe went from bad to worse.

Oh
Oh.
