Kansas - Rainmaker lyrics

rate me

Have you ever seen a miracle - you couldn't doubt or imitate What's it really worth to you to shake the holy hand of fate Well I did what I could to make ends meet Been a gunrunner and a medicine man In a Kansas town I was a rainmaker - there the hand of fate got out of hand Rainmaker Rainmaker save this one horse town Rainmaker pray to heaven From the Flint Hills the land was cracked and dried Thirsty streets in misery I took the sign down that said medicine man Put one up that said rainmaker - that was me So the townspeople gave me money up front To light a fire - pray, and dance around Tell them it'd rain so they'd all go to bed And I'd make my break clean out of town But I started this dance and a storm kicked up The sky went black from coast to coast It was too late to stop - it was to late to pray I had summoned down the Holy Ghost Oh the searing wind and the clouds of dust And hell came raining down What came out of me and the powers that be Was the last of that one horse town
