Artist/Band: John Prine
Lyrics for Song: Great Rain
Lyrics for Album: The Missing Years [1991]



Great rain great rain

I thought I heard you call my name

Great rain great rain

I thought I heard you call my name

I was standing in the station

Waving down an unmarked train



There's a fire at the junction

Why do you do the things you do

There's a fire at the junction

Why do you do the things you do

I was praying for mercy

And all he ever sent me was you



Jimmy bought the liquor

I bought the cups and ice

Jimmy bought the liquor

I bought the cups and ice

I tell you funny stories

Why can't you treat me nice



Great rain great rain

I thought I heard you call my name

Great rain great rain

I thought I heard you calling my name

I was standing by the river

Talking to a young mark twain.
