Edge Of The Storm

She had five hundred dollars that her grandma left

She said for a rainy day

A hundred more from the general store

Where she stocked the shelves for pay

She'd had enough of those country roads

And the wind in the telephone wires

Said a prayer for luck, started the truck

Checked the mirror and spun the tires

She said there's no such thing as a rainy day

And the world is bigger than the milky way

If you save it too long you're just throwin' it away

She rolls like the thunder

She's ridin' to the edge of the storm

She had her momma's smile and her daddy's fire

Their love burned deep in her soul

They were more than glad to give her all they had

As they pushed her from the fold

The road gets wider mile my mile

As she heads east toward the dawn

The clouds press down, the lightning sounds

Lilly turns those wipers on

She said there's no such thing as a rainy day

And the world is bigger than the milky way

If you save it too long you're just throwin' it away

She rolls like the thunder

She's ridin' to the edge of the storm

The cards come in from Fond do Lac

New Orleans and Chilliwack

She said one of these days I'm comin' back

But I'm not gonna stay

She said there's no such thing as a rainy day

And the world is bigger than the milky way

If you save it too long you're just throwin' it away

She rolls like the thunder

She's ridin' to the edge of the storm
