Rain a-coming
Rain a-Coming, won't be long now.
Got to get home now.
Wind's picking up,
Feel the coolness on my brow,
Sky is turning to pitch black.
We will be in for a real blow,
Should get home now.
Rain drops falling all around.
Feeling like a regular pincushion
Winds are really strong now.
Rain a-Coming.
Rain Curtain racing towards me.
Can I beat it home?
Crack-Snap-Karpowie.
Lighting and thunder together
What is it that everybody says?
Oh, yea God is bowling again.
The tin roof giving up a Calliope of sounds
Rain a-coming.
