The Band
Kentucky Downpour
Helm-The Band-Grebb
Night wheels rollin' on a cold black road
Got an uneasy feelin', haulin' a heavy load
Ease up on the hammer, it's getting pretty thick
It's startin' to rain and it's gonna get slick
Oh, Kentucky downpour
It's coming down harder than we ever bargained for
Storm clouds blowin' through the cotton fields
Black ice is forming underneath my wheels
Drivin' back home, this ain't no time for stormin'
You can't make no time when all the rain starts pourin'
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 crashin' and lightnin' is flashin'
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
Ridin' and losin' track of when I comin' back
Or where I'm comin' 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
