The well's gone dry
Everyday is the same
No need to watch the weatherman
He can't make it rain
The well's gone dry
Everyday is the same
For the just and unjust
We don't know who's to blame
Oh I just wish it would rain
Lord I'm prayin for rain
Hey Fish you pay attention
Our knees are bowing down
When that bayou starts a risin
Ride that bike to higher ground
Vause we're praying to the Lord
For a little hurricane
Come up the Mississippi
And bring us some rain
Yes we're prayin for rain
Oh I wish it would rain
Lord we know we don't deserve
The grace we may have found
So we're beggin for mercy
This heat's breakin me down
The dust I can taste it
No creeks left to seign
The hillsides are all dyin
O Lord its such a shame
Oh Lord we're praying for rain
Oh I just wish it would rain
