Lizzy and the rainman

He came riding in on a sunrise
A hot west Texas day
A fancy man in a painted wagon
Some fancy things to say
Looks like you folks´ll need some water
Well water is my game
For the small price of a hundred dollars
I bet you I can make it rain
So get away all non-believers or the rain´ll never come
Someone start a fire burning, somebody beat the drum
Some may think I´m crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before the day is over you folks´ll see some rain
They all just stood a staring trying to believe
But there was one named Lizzy Cooper said he was a lying cheat
She said you call yourself a rainman, well you oughta be ashamed
For starting all these people dreaming thinking you can make it rain
So get away all non-believers or the rain´ll never come
Someone keep the fire burning, somebody beat the drum
Some may think I´m crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before the day is over you folks´ll see some rain
Oh Lizzy, a man´s gotta have a dream
And if you can´t walk on the inside with me
I´ll meet you in between
Come with me Lizzy
And the stars´ll write your name
And if you still think I´m lying to you
Look yonder here comes the rain
So get away all non-believers or the rain´ll never come
Someone keep the fire burning, somebody beat the drum
Some may think I´m crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before the day is over you folks´ll see some rain
So get away all non-believers or the rain´ll never come
Someone keep the fire burning, somebody beat the drum
Some may think I´m crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before the day is over you folks´ll see some rain
A hot west Texas day
A fancy man in a painted wagon
Some fancy things to say
Looks like you folks´ll need some water
Well water is my game
For the small price of a hundred dollars
I bet you I can make it rain
So get away all non-believers or the rain´ll never come
Someone start a fire burning, somebody beat the drum
Some may think I´m crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before the day is over you folks´ll see some rain
