THE STEEL WOODS
"Let The Rain Come Down"
(Brent Cobb / Jason Cope / Dusty Grey)

We all need rain. Lord, the sun sure stings
Somebody string a rattlesnake up
Good Lord, my whole world ran dry the day
That wicked ol' witch said "Bye"

[Chorus:]
She put a curse on me
One on the river
Now my crops don't grow no more
I've got a hollow heart
A pocket full of nothing
My soul won't rest and my eyes won't pour
Let the rain come down

I should've been long gone, cold turkey
Now I'm sitting on the front porch stoned
Looking back now, the past was murky
It ain't no wonder why my money's all gone

[Chorus:]
She put a curse on me
One on the river
Now my crops don't grow no more
I've got a hollow heart
A pocket full of nothing
My soul won't rest and my eyes won't pour
Let the rain come down
Oh, let it rain

Look yonder to the west, I can feel it in my bones
Here comes a hard rain, just a-blackin' out the sky
I'd run for shelter if I wasn't me
Better pay heed to the past or wind up dry

[Chorus:]
She put a curse on me
One on the river
Now my crops don't grow no more
I've got a hollow heart
A pocket full of nothing
My soul won't rest and my eyes won't pour
She put a curse on me
One on the river
Now my crops don't grow no more
I've got a hollow heart
A pocket full of nothing
My soul won't rest and my eyes won't pour
Let the rain come down
Yeah let the rain come down
