Something in the Rain - Tish Hinojosa (蒂雪·西诺荷莎)[00:00:00]
Written by:Tish Hinojosa[00:00:01]
Mom and dad have worked the fields[00:00:24]
I don't know how many years[00:00:30]
I'm just a boy but I know how[00:00:36]
And go to school when work is slow[00:00:42]
We have seen our country's roads[00:00:48]
Bakersfield to Illinois[00:00:54]
And when troubles come our way[00:01:00]
Oh yeah I've seen my daddy pray[00:01:05]
There's something wrong with little sister[00:01:12]
I hear her crying by my side[00:01:18]
Mama's shaking as she holds her[00:01:24]
We try to hold her through the night[00:01:30]
And mom says close you eyes mijito[00:01:36]
Dream of someplace far from here[00:01:42]
Like the pictures in your schoolbooks[00:01:48]
Someday you can take us there[00:01:54]
There must be something in the rain[00:02:00]
I'm not sure just what that means[00:02:06]
Angelita talks of sins of man[00:02:12]
Of dust that's in our hands[00:02:17]
There must be something in the rain[00:02:23]
Well what else could cause this pain[00:02:30]
Those airplanes cure the plants so things can grow[00:02:36]
Oh no it must be something in the rain[00:02:42]
Little sister's gone away[00:03:12]
Mama's working long again[00:03:18]
And me I think I understand[00:03:23]
About our life about our land[00:03:30]
Well talkers talk and dreamers dream[00:03:36]
I will find a place between[00:03:41]
I'm afraid but I believe[00:03:48]
That we can change these hurting fields[00:03:53]
'Cause there's something in the rain[00:04:00]
But there's more here in our hands[00:04:06]
Buelita's right about the sins of man[00:04:12]
Who's profits rape the land[00:04:16]
And the rains are pouring down[00:04:24]
From the growers to the towns[00:04:29]
And until we break the killing chains[00:04:36]
There's something in the rain[00:04:40]
