it's a rain-dirt-town-job hurts, but it don't pay
|
all these calls they're making me and driving you insane
|
don't you see don't you understand
|
waiting for the phone to ring to make me all i am
|
you're in the suburbs waiting for somewhere to go
|
i'm down here working on some dumb show
|
|
in a raintown raintown rain down
|
on all those tired eyes and tears and frowns
|
in a raintown raintown rain down
|
on all those days you're not around
|
|
it takes a big hearted girl from the north country you can tell
|
how you payed those bills and went through heaven and hell
|
and you you cried and you travelled and you spat but you never asked
|
well how long how long how long is this pain
|
you're on for three minutes trying hard to say "hello"
|
i'm down here working on some dumb show
|
|
in a raintown raintown rain down
|
on all those tired eyes and tears and frowns
|
in a raintown raintown rain down
|
on all those days you're not around
|
|
sitting at home listening to your radio
|
listening for your old friend talking on some dumb show
|
|
in a raintown raintown rain down
|
on all those tired eyes and tears and frowns
|
in a raintown raintown rain down
|
on all those days you're not around
|
