Garth Brooks The Thunder Rolls Lyrics:
[Applause and cheering.]

Three thirty in the mornin'.
Not a soul in sight.
The city's lookin' like a ghost town,
On a moonless summer night.
Raindrops on the windshield.
There's a storm movin' in.
He's headin' back from somewhere,
That he never should have been.
And the thunder rolls.
And the thunder rolls.

[Cheering.]

Every light is burnin'.
In a house across town.
She's pacin' by the telephone,
In her faded flannel gown.
Askin' for a miracle.
Hopin' she's not right.
Prayin' it's the weather,
That's kept him out all night.
And the thunder rolls.
And the thunder rolls.

The thunder rolls.
And the lightnin' strikes.
Another love grows cold.
On a sleepless night.
As the storm blows on,
Out of control.
Deep in her heart,
The thunder rolls.

She's waitin' by the window,
When he pulls into the drive.
She rushes out to hold him,
Thankful he's alive.

But on the wind and the rain,
A strange new perfume blows.
And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes,
And he knows that she knows.
And the thunder rolls.
And the thunder rolls.

The thunder rolls,
And the lightnin' strikes.
Another love grows cold, darlin',
On a sleepless night.
As the storm blows on,
Out of control,
Deep in her heart,
The thunder rolls.

[Cheering and applause.]

* [3rd Verse - From the long version, performed for live audiences only:]

She runs back down the hallway,
[More cheering and applause.]
To the bedroom door.
She reaches for the pistol,
Kept in the dresser drawer.
Tells the lady in the mirror,
He won't do this again.
'Cause tonight will be the last time,
She'll wonder where he's been.

[Cheering and applause.]

The thunder rolls,
And the lightnin' strikes.
Another love grows cold, darlin',
On a sleepless night.
As the storm blows on,
Out of control,
Deep in her heart,
[Cheering and applause.]
The thunder rolls.

[More cheering and applause.]
