the rain came down - thompson brothers band lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well the old man loaded up everything that he owned
on the wagon and headed out west
well the old woman, fearless to face the unknown
‘cause she figured he knew what was best
and they settle in hard on government land
six mouths to feed and 40 acres to plan

[chorus]
and the rain came down
like an angel coming down from above
and the rain came down
well it’ll wash you away and there ain’t never enough

[verse 2]
fall turned to winter, another year gone
over and over again
some packed up their lives from the land and moved on
some stayed oh to plow it back in
well the good lord giveth and he taketh away
the restless shall go but the faithful shall stay

[chorus]
and the rain came down
like an angel coming down from above
and the rain came down
well it’ll wash you away and there ain’t never enough

[bridge]
well, grandaddy died in the room he was born in
23 summers ago
i coulda sworn he was beside me this mornin’
when the sheriff showed up at my door
so don’t you come around here with your auctioneer man
you can have the machines but you ain’t takin’ my land

[chorus]
and the rain came down
like an angel coming down from above
and the rain came down
well it’ll wash you away and there ain’t ever enough
