Karaoké The Rain Came Down Steve Earle

The old man loaded up everything that he owned on a wagon and headed out west

The old woman fearlessly faced the unknown 'cos she figured he knew what was best

And they settled down hard on a government grant with six mouths to feed and forty acres to plant

And the rain came down

Uh like an angel comin' down from above

And the rain came down

Mmh it'll wash you away and there ain't never enough

Uh fall turned to winter

Another year gone

Over and over again

Uh some took their lives from their land and moved on and some stayed on to plow it back in

Uh and the good Lord

He giveth and he taketh away

And the restless shall go

And the faithful shall stay

And the rain came down

Uh like an angel comin' down from above

And the rain came down

It'll wash you away and there ain't never enough

And my grandaddy died in the room he was born in twenty-three summers ago

But I could have sworn he was beside me this mornin' when the sheriff showed up at my door

So don't you come around here with your auctioneer man 'cos you can have the machines but you ain't takin' my land

And the rain came down

Uh like an angel comin' down from above

And the rain came down

Mmh it'll wash you away and there ain't never enough

Oh

Wap

Wooh ooh

Ooh
