Have you ever seen a miracle you couldn't doubt or imitate? |
|
What's it really worth to you to shake the holy hand of fate? |
|
Well, I did what |
|
I could to make ends meet |
|
Been a gunrunner and a medicine man |
|
In a Kansas town |
|
I was a rainmaker, there the hand of fate got out of hand |
|
Rainmaker, rainmaker, save this one horse town |
|
Rainmaker, pray to |
|
HeavenFrom the |
|
Flint Hills, the land was cracked and dried |
|
Thirsty streets in misery |
|
I took the sign down that said medicine man |
|
Put one up that said rainmaker, that was me |
|
So, the townspeople gave me money up front |
|
To light a fire, pray and dance around |
|
Tell them it'd rain, so, they'd all go to bed |
|
And I'd make my break clean out of town |
|
But I started this dance and a storm kicked up |
|
The sky went black from coast to coast |
|
It was too late to stop, it was to late to pray |
|
I had summoned down the |
|
Holy Ghost |
|
Oh, the searing wind and the clouds of dust |
|
And Hell came raining down |
|
What came out of me and the powers that be |
|
Was the last of that one horse town |
