Dallas, Texas post grunge band Overscene supplemented 1991 Garth Brooks tale of rain clouds and infidelity "The Thunder Rolls" with some heavier yet melodic riffs.
Musically, I prefer the updated version.
Lyrically, I prefer the Tulsa, Oklahoma country star's release from the album "No Fences" that cuts off after the second verse with that sweet, sweet ambiguity.
Does the scorned wife kill him? Leave him for his more well-endowed cousin? Drain the joint account and 401K? Pull a Lorena Bobbitt? Forgive his triflin' ass?
The Overscene version kills the mystery... along with the philanderer.
