Alejandro Escovedo - San Antonio Rain lyrics
rate meSeems like everybody’s trying to sell me
Something I don’t need
My dear half down the cocaine,
What a gram…
But the last thing I need
Is something that will dull my pain
I’d walk from bitter San Antonio
Just to taste the cool tongue of the rain
The rain ain’t gonna come, (the rain ain’t gonna come)
The rain don’t wanna come, uh,
Give me something strong
I think I’ve felt enough of this
I said … if you double
The bartender says I should quit
One time could find a pretty face
In every corner of this town
When you don’t recognize a single soul
What’s the use of hanging around
The rain ain’t gonna come, (the rain ain’t gonna come)
The rain don’t wanna come, uh,
The rain ain’t gonna come, (the rain ain’t gonna come)
No, the rain don’t wanna come, no, uh
I put my finger tip towards you
Is there something pretty in my ear
I just lay down to rest my eyes
When I woke up, it was nobody there
I hear the ocean calling, calling like a long lost friend
Think I’ll back to California, but I don’t think they’ll let me in
The rain ain’t gonna come, (the rain ain’t gonna come)
The rain don’t wanna come, uh,
The rain ain’t gonna come, (the rain ain’t gonna come)
No, the rain don’t wanna come, no, uh
Think I’ll back to California, but I don’t think they’ll let me in.
