Heavy Cloud No Rain

Turned on the weather man just after the news

I needed sweet rain to wash away my blues

He looked at the chart but he looked in vain

Heavy cloud but no rainBack in the time with Louis XVI

At the court of the people he was number one

He'd be the bluest blood they'd ever seen

When the king said hi to the guillotine

The royal astrologer was run out of breath

He thought that maybe the rain would postpone his death

He look in the sky but he look in vain

Heavy cloud but no rainWell the land was cracking and the river was dry

All the crops were dying when they ought to be high

So to save his farm from the banker's draft

The farmer took out a book on some old witchcraft

He made a spell and a potion on a midsummer's night

He killed a brindled calf in the pale moonlight

He prayed to the sky but he prayed in vain

Heavy cloud but no rain

Heavy cloud but no rainThe sun won't shine 'til the clouds are gone

The clouds won't go 'til their work is done

And every morning you'll hear me pray

If only it would rain today
