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 rain |
Back in 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 rain |
Well 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 |
The sun won’t shine till the clouds are gone |
The clouds won’t go till their work is done |
And every morning you’ll hear me pray |
'If only it would rain today' |
I asked my baby if there’d be some way |
She said she save her love for a rainy day |
So I look in the sky, but I look in vain |
Heavy cloud, but no rain |
