Had lips like candy Hair flowing like water Skin like velvet made The whole damn world slow down She was a preacher's daughter Never did what daddy taught her And the rebel in her soul Brought her to me The river was cold And the river was wide She flowed from the mountain Straight across the great divide And her heart ran cold But her love runs deep She's fire on the mountain Wrecking everyone she meets She's like rain when she rolls in But that sunshine in her thunder Makes the loneliest heart wonder If the ride is worth the pain Might not be stone clouds inside Oh but don't you worry friend She's coming around the bend She's holding lightning in both hands Lord please know It's that time for me to go The river has my heart She's the keeper of my soul On one side of the water Sweet everlasting grace The other side could end your life Or steal your breath away She's like rain when she rolls in But that sunshine in her thunder Makes the loneliest heart wonder If the ride is worth the pain Might not be stone clouds inside Oh but don't you worry friend She's coming around the bend She's holding lightning in both hands She's a natural disaster She'll tear the land in two She's running to be running 'Cause it's all she knows to do She's a tumbleweed rolling A river running wild A hurricane blowing She's the calm after the storm Under an Appalachian sunset sky She's like rain when she rolls in But that sunshine in her thunder Makes the loneliest heart wonder If the ride is worth the pain Might not be stone clouds inside Oh but don't you worry friend She's coming around the bend She's holding lightning in both hands She's like rain She's rolls in But there's sunshine in her thunder She's coming around the bend She's holding lightning in both hands
