The Storms of Life Songtext
von Randy Travis

(Troy Seals/Max D. Barnes)

There′s a dirty piece of cardboard
That reads Montgomery Ward
Taped across the window of my old Ford.
A six-pack on the front seat and a box of chicken wings,
I'm dialin′ 'cross the radio for a song that I can sing.

I'd better change my wandrin ways,
I know I′ve seen my better days,
Always gettin′ high when I get low.
Well, I left my soul out in the rain,
Lord, what a price I've had to pay,
The storms of life are washin′ me away.

--- Instrumenal ---


An old mail pouch, tobacco sign
Fadin' on the barn,
Bringin′ back sweet memories of Mama's farm
When love was just a country girl
That lived on down the road.
(Spoken:)
You know, she almost had me turned around,
(Sang)
But that was years ago.

I′d better change my wandrin ways,
I know I've seen my better days,
Always gettin' high when I get low.
Well, I left my soul out in the rain,
Lord, what a price I′ve had to pay.
The storms of life are washin′ me away.
Yeah, the storms of life are washin' me away...
