Cletis Carr - Rain lyrics

rate me

She's sitting in her favourite chair

Look at all that land out there

Homemade wine in her hand

She don't go for the fancy brands

Another day's work is done

Another evening soon to come

Silver clouds in an angry sky

She drains her glass

Looks like it's gonna rain tonight

He's riding on a dusty track

Thinks he should be heading back

Too little hours in the day

Too many bills left still to pay

One man against the earth

One dream left in the dirt

Pulls his hat down against the sun

He saddles up

Looks like it's gonna rain tonight

Running down an alley lane

He finds an empty doorway

He crouches down against the wind

Pulls a shoestring under his chin

Thinks about 'em on the farm

Rolls his sleeve up his tortured arm

Lights a match, heats a dirty spoon

Til the needle fills

Looks like it's gonna rain

I think it's gonna rain
