It comes like any other sound. Since lightning displaces a column of gas by turning it into a hot plasma, and it does so very quickly, the sound is very intense. So if the thunder does not originate on very flat land, there will be very many echos that cause it to sound like it "rolls". Even thermal gradients in the air, or density gradients made by falling rain can cause echos.
