Praying for Rain

歌詞

Something's different, something's changed And I don't know what Even the old folks can't recall When it's ever been this hot and dry Dust devils whirlin' on the first day of July It's a hundred degrees at 10:00 AM Not a cloud up in the sky We hardly had a winter Had about a week of spring Crops are burned-up in the fields There's a blanket of dust on everything The weatherman is sayin' That there ain't no change in sight Lord, I've never been a prayin' man But I'm sayin' one tonight I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain Lord, I ain't never asked for much And I don't mean to complain I'm prayin' for rain I ain't no wise man But I'm no fool I believe that Mother Nature Has taken us to school Maybe we just took too much Or put too little back It isn't knowledge It's humility we lack I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain Lord, I ain't never asked for much And I don't mean to complain I'm prayin' for rain Some people pray for victory Some people pray for peace Some people pray for extra time Some pray for sweet release Some pray for health and happiness For riches and renown But none of this will matter much If the waters don't come down I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain Lord, I ain't never asked for much And I don't mean to complain I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain I'm prayin' for rain
