"Thunder Rolls"
Written, recorded and performed by Joe Vasaturo III
Lyrics
Verse 1
It’s a cold dark night, sittin’ on my front porch
And in the distance, the lightning strikes
Clouds moving in, over my head
Then the rain starts… coming down
Tension is building inside of me
Because I know what’s coming next
A flash in the sky, God’s upset
As the thunder pounds into my chest
Chorus
The rain comes down, the lightning strikes
The storm has come, as the thunder rolls
As the thunder rolls
Verse 2
I can’t pay my bills, tryin’ to make ends meet
It’s a dead-end road, life is tough on me
I work every day, for ain’t much pay
Now I’m in debt… not much more to say
There's a Knock at my door, a man’s standing there
He hands me a notice, “Son, you can’t live here”
So I pack up my bags, guitar and dog
'Cause there ain’t no livin’ here no more
Chorus
The rain comes down, the lightning strikes
The storm has come, as the thunder rolls
As the thunder rolls
Verse 3
I’m living on the street, and here in my car
I got twenty dollars… ain’t gonna get me far
I lost it all—my house and things
There ain’t nothing out here but living in sin
I’m getting mighty tired, as I lay my head down
I’m resting here, on the cold wet ground
As the lightning strikes, it’s my final show
So I take my last breath… and I let myself go
Chorus
The rain comes down, the lightning strikes
The storm has come, as the thunder rolls
As the thunder rolls
As the thunder rolls…
Chorus
The rain comes down, the lightning strikes
The storm has come, as the thunder rolls
As the thunder rolls
As the thunder rolls..........
