One Step Ahead Of The Storm Lyrics

One Step Ahead Of The Storm lyrics

(Larry Boone/Paul Nelson/Tracy Lawrence)



Broke down on the interstate

Just outside of Wichita

I said, don't worry baby it'll be alright

Two young and crazy kids

Who thought we knew it all

California hunger in our eyes



I could smell the rain

I could feel the wind

I could see the clouds rollin' in

But in the arms of love we stayed safe and warm

One step ahead of the storm



Our California dreams went south

So we headed east to Baton Rouge

You said, don't worry baby it'll be alright

Louisiana holds a brighter day

Had my doubts to tell the truth

But through it all

You were right there by my side



I could smell the rain

I could feel the wind

I could see the clouds rollin' in

But in the arms of love we stayed safe and warm

One step ahead of the storm



Hard times knocking at your door

From the cradle to the grave

You gotta fight like the devil

Just to keep the wolves at bay



Hey I could smell the rain

I could feel the wind

I could see the clouds rollin' in

But in the arms of love we stayed safe and warm

One step ahead of the storm

We were one step ahead of the storm
