Down here in New Orleans, prayin’ for holy water, To rain on down, rain on down on me. I got to tell you how I feel, And I don’t care as long as it’s a side that’s real.
Like a dark cloud that casts no shade, Seven days pass I still pray for rain. I want to see things my way; I will add colour and shape.
Now I’m frozen in time, bound by convictions, Obey the trust - things I learned long ago. Please now spare me, spare me your old folklore, All I really want are things they were before.
Like a dark cloud that casts no shade, Seven days pass I still pray for rain. I want to see things my way; I will add colour and shape.
