"Rain Finally Coming Down" lyrics

There’s a line of thunderheads
Movin’ in from the west
It might finally rain today
But the crops are already dead

And at home there’s a woman who’s lonely
I’m already half way gone
She’s all that I have left
And now she’s barely hangin’ on

She feels neglected
Like the drought that plagued this land
In need of a lover’s touch
In the hands of an honest man
At the end of the day
There’s not enough of me to go around
At least the rain has finally started comin’ down

I can’t really blame her
For feelin’ so lone
She just wants to talk about
Her day when I get home

She cooks dinner then I fall asleep
And her tears are the only sound
Married life out here
Is as hard as this thirsty ground.

She feels neglected
Like the drought that plagued this land
In need of a lover’s touch
In the hands of an honest man
At the end of the day
There’s not enough of me to go around
At least the rain has finally started comin’ down

And baby take my hand
Stand in the rain and dance
Let it wash us clean
And soak in this second chance

And she felt neglected
Like the drought that’s plagued this land
Now she’s safe in a lover’s touch
In the hands of an honest man
And we hold each other as the water heals the ground
Thank God the rain has finally started comin’ down
