Natural Disaster

Had lips like candy, hair floated 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 storm 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 not 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 storm 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 a-rolling

A river running wild, a hurricane a-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 storm 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 rolls in

But there's sunshine in her thunder

She's coming around the bend

She's holding lightning in both hands
