Lyrics
RAIN GONNA" COME
Terry Eilers-Kincaid and Mariam
© BMI 2006
WELL, THE PREACHER MAN HE ASKED ME
WHEN YOU COMMIN? SON
SAID I?D LOVE TO BE THERE REVEREND
BUT SO MANY THINGS TO GET DONE
YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THAT TIME GONNA? BE HERE, BOY
AND YOU BETTER KNOW THE LORD
IF YOU AIN?T LIVIN ON THE WORD OF THE GOOD BOOK
YOU MIGHT DIE BY THE SWORD
I SAY THREE TIMES THE CHILD BEEN COMMIN
I?M FEELIN? HARD TIMES UP AHEAD
YOU GIVE ME ALL THOSE MOUNTAINS THAT I GOTTA? CLIMB
JUST TO KEEP MY FAMILY FED
AND REVENUER GOTTA? KEEP KNOCKIN? AT MY DOOR
CAUSE MY BILL WAY OVER DUE
DAY OF RECKONIN? JUST GONNA? LIFT MY BURDEN
AND CARRY MY SOUL ON THROUGH
LORD, LORD, LORD, LORD YOU KNOW THAT RAIN GONNA? COME
LORD, LORD, LORD, LORD NO WHERE THAT YOU CAN RUN
YOU GOTTA? REACH OUT YOUR HANDS TOGETHER, UP TO THE LIGHT ABOVE
WASH AWAY ALL OF YOUR TROUBLES
WHEN THAT RAIN GONNA? COME
MAMA?S POT DON?T HOLD ENOUGH
LIKE IT ALWAYS DID
SOMETIMES YA? DON?T HAVETA? GO HUNGRY
SOMETIMES YOU?RE LICKIN? THE LID
GOTTA? KINDLE THE WOOD TO MAKE THE FIRE
PLANT THE SEEDS FOR WHEAT TO GROW
SPEND TIME ON THE STAIRS THAT LEAD TO ETERNITY
IF YOU EVER PLAN TO GO
SHIPS SAIL UPON THE WATER
BIRDS FLOAT UP IN THE WIND
BUT THE HIGHWAY TO THE STREETS OF GOLD
IS FULL OF BUMPS AND BENDS
IF YOUR BROTHER GONNA? BELIEVE IN YOU
AND IF YOU LEAD HIM WRONG
DROUGHT GONNA? COME LIKE THE PROPHET SAID
AND YOU?LL FALL WHERE YOU BELONG
