Thunder Rolls and the Weekend Calls

V6-MINI

(Verse 1) Sittin’ on my couch, the thunder’s rollin’ low, Just punched the clock, left the workday’s woe. Daughters laughin’ loud, playin’ games on the screen, Mom’s catchin’ a nap, livin’ the quiet dream. Rain’s creepin’ closer, paintin’ streaks ‘cross the sky, Got two more days ‘til the weekend’s nigh. Thinkin’ ‘bout my Mama, her love still holds, As the thunder rolls, yeah, the thunder rolls. (Chorus) Thunder rolls and the weekend calls, Hard day’s done, I’m shakin’ off the fall. Life’s a grind, but these moments feel true, With my girls on this Thursday, it’s the life I pursue. Yeehaw, raise a glass to the simple things, Rain on the roof, oh, the peace it brings. Never knew a father’s life could weigh this much, But I’m holdin’ on tight to the ones I love. (Verse 2) Sweat on my brow from a long, hard earn, Every ache’s a lesson, every scar’s a turn. Mama’s voice still echoes, singin’ soft in my mind, “Keep on pushin’, son, leave the pain behind.” The girls are growin’ fast, like the storm clouds race, But right here, right now, I’m in my sacred place. Couch feels like a throne, with the rain’s steady hum, Thankin’ God for this life and the man I’ve become. (Chorus) Thunder rolls and the weekend calls, Hard day’s done, I’m shakin’ off the fall. Life’s a grind, but these moments feel true, With my girls on this Thursday, it’s the life I pursue. Yeehaw, raise a glass to the simple things, Rain on the roof, oh, the peace it brings. Never knew a father’s life could weigh this much, But I’m holdin’ on tight to the ones I love. (Bridge) Storm’s gettin’ closer, but my heart’s at ease, Memories of Mama ridin’ soft on the breeze. This old couch, these walls, they’re my piece of the world, With my daughters’ laughter and my wife’s love twirled. (Chorus) Thunder rolls and the weekend calls, Hard day’s done, I’m shakin’ off the fall. Life’s a grind, but these moments feel true, With my girls on this Thursday, it’s the life I pursue. Yeehaw, raise a glass to the simple things, Rain on the roof, oh, the peace it brings. Never knew a father’s life could weigh this much, But I’m holdin’ on tight to the ones I love. (Outro) As the thunder rolls, and the rain starts to pour, I’m kickin’ up my boots, dreamin’ of somethin’ more. With Mama in my heart and my family near, This hard father’s life’s the one I hold dear. Yeehaw, let’s ride, as the thunder rolls! ©2025 By Matthew E Treviño
