"Watering Flowers In The Rain" lyrics - TODD SNIDER

There was a time I when was working with Elvis
Nobody ever believes a word I tell 'em, but it's true
Everywhere that he went
Well, I went too
He always knew
What to do
'Til he overdid it

[Chorus:]
Watering flowers in the pouring rain
Pouring over memories to an old refrain
On the head of a pin in a hurricane

We started falling out of each others' lives when
His wife left him and then mine left me too
I've always tried not to talk so much
But I still do
The next thing I knew
I was working in a new band and

[Chorus:]
Watering flowers in the pouring rain
Pouring over memories to an old refrain
On the head of a pin in a hurricane

[Outro:]
There was a time I when was working with Elvis
Nobody ever believes a word I tell 'em, but it's true
