This line is showing the morals and values that the next door neighbors have. The father and his family walk out of the house well dressed and eventually head to church. He says the line about everybody having their bibles showing the well taught family morals. 
The second example of Ethos is "Now she was sure real quick to up and apologize when she heard about my new found luck." This shows the character of the girlfriend and how her personality is. She is wanting to go back to her ex after he starts getting lucky and winning things. 
The last example of Ethos is "I've been on one hell of a redneck road for three weeks now." This is showing his character by the way he spends his money on things. He started spending money on things that are materialistic. He is careless with his money and only cares about having fun right now.  ]]> 2019-05-22 15:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/3296391/k9qjj0iwns10/wish/362578926 3296391 https://padlet.com/3296391/k9qjj0iwns10/wish/362772341 The first example of Pathos that are found in the lyrics are "and the waitress left her number on my check with a heart/ she picked up on the first ring when I gave her a call." This is showing his new love that he is already finding. He is showing happy emotions always and continues to get lucky. 
The second example of Pathos found in the lyrics is "won a four day three night beach vacation." This is another example of how much fun he is getting to have after the break-up. He can't even think about the girl when he is on all these other vacations and winning money. 
The third example of pathos in the lyrics is "Then I won a hundred bucks on a scratch off ticket." Again, showing the luck he is having. This is telling how the scratch off ticket was a winner and he will celebrate another victory. ]]> 2019-05-23 02:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/3296391/k9qjj0iwns10/wish/362772341 3296391 https://padlet.com/3296391/k9qjj0iwns10/wish/362777206 Overall Luke Combs does a good job of getting his point across that "When It Rains It Pours." This thought of still being okay after a breakup is explained throughout the whole song by using Pathos, Ethos and Logos. His lyrics show the things he has gotten after his breakup like winning money off a scratch off ticket, a vacation to Panama and a new four-wheeler. His video gives a visual of the things and the happy colors showing him single and thriving. ]]> 2019-05-23 02:50:27 UTC https://padlet.com/3296391/k9qjj0iwns10/wish/362777206 3296391 https://padlet.com/3296391/k9qjj0iwns10/wish/362777243 Combs, Luke. “Luke Combs - When It Rains It Pours.” YouTube, YouTube, 15 Aug. 2017, www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXyxFMbqKYA.
