. . . There's a line of thunderheads Movin' in from the west It might finally rain today But the crops are already dead . And at home there's a woman who's lonely I'm already half way gone She's all that I have left And now she's barely hangin' on . She feels neglected Like the drought that plagued this land In need of a lover's touch In the hands of an honest man At the end of the day There's not enough of me to go around At least the rain has finally started comin' down . I can't really blame her For feelin' so lone She just wants to talk about Her day when I get home . She cooks dinner then I fall asleep And her tears are the only sound Married life out here Is as hard as this thirsty ground. . She feels neglected Like the drought that plagued this land In need of a lover's touch In the hands of an honest man At the end of the day There's not enough of me to go around At least the rain has finally started comin' down . And baby take my hand Stand in the rain and dance Let it wash us clean And soak in this second chance . And she felt neglected Like the drought that's plagued this land Now she's safe in a lover's touch In the hands of an honest man And we hold each other as the water heals the ground Thank God the rain has finally started comin' down .
