Great Rain

Great rain, great rain

I thought I heard you call my name

Great rain, great rain

I thought I heard you call my name

I was standing in the station

Waving down an unmarked trainThere's a fire at the junction

Why do you do the things you do?

There's a fire at the junction

Why do you do the things you do?

I was praying for mercy

And all he ever sent me was youJimmy bought the liquor

I bought the cups and ice

Jimmy bought the liquor

I bought the cups and ice

I tell you funny stories

Why can't you treat me nice?Great rain, great rain

I thought I heard you call my name

Great rain, great rain

I thought I heard you calling my name

I was standing by the river
