"Southern Rain" - Cowboy Junkies[00:00:02]
The flies have quit their buzzing[00:00:15]
Even Bear has stopped his barking[00:00:19]
They all sense something brewing[00:00:23]
Up the James and headed this way[00:00:26]
Bobby sips his morning coffee[00:00:32]
Says `Have you finished with the funnies [00:00:36]
Looks like a storm's coming honey[00:00:40]
Guess we'll have to stay in bed today'[00:00:44]
I've heard that into every life[00:00:49]
A little of it must fall[00:00:53]
If there's any truth to the saying [00:00:57]
Lord let it be a southern rain[00:01:01]
Marie was born in Macon Georgia[00:01:06]
She met a west coast lawyer[00:01:10]
He plucked that sweet magnolia[00:01:14]
And carried her to the hills of West L A [00:01:18]
She says `I never thought I'd tire of a dollar[00:01:23]
But this life has grown so hollow[00:01:27]
Every night there's lipstick on his collar[00:01:31]
And every morning I wash it away'[00:01:34]
She heard that into every life[00:01:40]
A little of it must fall[00:01:45]
So she spends her evenings praying[00:01:48]
For a little of that southern rain[00:01:52]
Cars alive on city streets[00:01:58]
Of sparkling black water[00:02:02]
Like waves beneath my window[00:02:05]
Never break just roll away[00:02:08]
Tonight this rain will be my lullaby[00:02:13]
These cars my dreams[00:02:20]
To carry me home to stay[00:02:22]
The wipers beat a rhythm[00:03:27]
Truck spray obscures my vision[00:03:30]
But I'm closing in on my destination[00:03:34]
Two more hours and I'll be at your door[00:03:38]
And it will never cease to amaze me[00:03:43]
How a little rain can drive folks crazy[00:03:47]
When I'd trade all my blue skies gladly[00:03:51]
For your blue eyes crooked smile[00:03:57]
And a steady downpour[00:04:06]
I've heard that into every life[00:04:11]
A little of it must fall [00:04:18]
But you'll never catch me complaining[00:04:23]
About too much of that southern rain[00:04:28]
