The 77s
The Rain Kept Falling in Love (Live at Echoes of Faith, 11/28/92)
[Spoken Intro: Michael Roe]
This is off the new record.
[Verse 1]
I curse the sun in the summer
Burns me up till I'm blind
I curse the cold in the winter
But I don't really mind
If they asked any money
I would give any money, hey
To the sun and the wind
And the rain to be kind
[Verse 2]
Prayed the rain to keep up
But it kept coming down
Washed my hands of it all
But it's all over town
Oh, yes
If they gave me the money
To see the sky again sunny, but I'll
Let it rain
Really pour
Salt, my tears let me drown
[Chorus]
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a down on me)
The rain kept falling in love
Oh, falling in love
[Verse 3]
Can the dirt in the ground
Sprout a seed all alone?
Can the dirt in my heart
Go away on its own?
I don't know
I would give any money
If they asked for the money
To make the rain wash the stain
Take my shame and go home
[Chorus]
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Rain coming down)
The rain kept falling in love
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Kept falling in love
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Rain coming down )
The rain kept falling in love
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Come-a, come-a, come-a down on me)
Rain on
(Rain coming down)
Ooh, the rain kept falling, rain on
