Lyrics

The earth is dry
until the rain it comes
down from the sky
when the thunder rumbles
The earth is dry
but the rains will surely come

Lightening flashes
and the water pours down
and the thunder crashes
with a drumbeat sound
the lightening flashes
and the thunder's like a drum

And the rain rain rain
the rain rain rain
the rains will surely come

The ground is swallowed
in a raging rush
and the sound that follows
is a deafening hush
yeah the calm that follows
is a tonic to my spirit

Sons and daughters
won't you lie on the ground
come watch the water
watch it percolate down
won't you lie in the water
won't you listen-- can you hear it

And the rain rain rain
the rain rain rain
Oh the rains will surely come
