about

This song was written during the drought and wildfires in Texas the summer of 2011.

lyrics

Everybody needs a rain song
Something to sing when it’s been dry too long
Everybody needs a rain song
So come on, come on rain

It’s so hot, the blacktop is crying
The potted plants on the porch are all dying
The grass is greener in some other state
We’re watching the sky and asking it why
All we can do is pray

Everybody needs a rain song
Something to sing when it’s been dry too long
Everybody needs a rain song
So come on, come on rain

Come some other time we may get floods
And we’ll forget about how dry it was
The only constant is the weather will change
So we keep watching the sky and asking it why
All we can do is pray

Everybody needs a rain song
Something to sing when it’s been dry too long
Everybody needs a rain song
So come on, come on rain

Everybody needs a rain song
Something to sing when it’s been dry too long
Everybody needs a rain song
So come on, come on rain
So come on, come on rain
So come on, come on rain
