Praying For Rain |
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 |
