A little farm so far away Rice fields everywhere Seven children with their mum and nobody else They have to suffer
When the rain... when the rain doesn't come When the rain... when the rain doesn't come...
Tschai Ni Li, about fourteen No childlife in her eyes Now and then she has to leave To save her family
When the rain... when the rain doesn't come When the rain... when the rain doesn't come...
When the rain... when the rain doesn't come When the rain... when the rain doesn't come...
Neon lights, big time at Charly's bar In the doorway tiny Tschai Ni Li Some guys start to touch her She closes her eyes and thinks \"it has to be\"
When the rain... when the rain doesn't come When the rain... when the rain doesn't come...
Her will is stronger than her pride She sells her body to let her family survive Go and help the child behind those eyes Don't play on the situation
Even if the rain... if the rain doesn't come Even if the rain... if the rain doesn't come Even if the rain... if the rain doesn't come... Yeah, yeah...
